It's a swimming ritual in cold water to get the crucifix



teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Deu 23:1 - He that is wounded in the stones, or hath his privy member cut off, shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD

Actually, when it comes to the Bible, Jesus also told his followers to castrate themselves:

"For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mother’s womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven’s sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it.” Matthew 19:12 (KJV)

But that teaching is mostly ignored by Christians, except for Origen who apparently followed it.

Between removing foreskins and cutting off bollocks, God seems to really hate male genitalia.

Catholic Vote cites Gavin McInnes as a source - the man who founded the Proud Boys and said Obama was his favorite n-word, his favorite monkey.

Quote:Popular Video Game Played By Kids Contains Overt LGBTQ Material

Gavin McInnes took to X (formerly Twitter) Thursday to post images his young son encountered while playing the online survival game Fortnite.

“My ten-year-old boy is playing [Fortnite] when this option appears,” McInnes wrote. “Rewards include going from straight to pansexual. WTF!?”

McInnes showed four pictures of what appeared during his son’s gameplay.

One screen advertised an “LGBT Box PVP.” On it were several flags representing certain so-called “identities” under the LGBTQ umbrella, including the “transgender,” “pansexual,” and “nonbinary” flags. They were displayed on the backdrop of a “pride” flag.

Another screen showed two cars racing each other, accompanied by the words “LGBT Box Fights.”

Pellegrino Ernetti (1925-1994) was a Roman Catholic priest and a Benedictine monk who in 1972 claimed to have invented a time machine called the Chronovisor.

Ernetti had a photograph for which he claimed was of Jesus Christ dying on the cross which he had taken using the device.

He also used the Chronovisor to view historical events such as the trial and crucifixion of Jesus; speeches by Napoleon, Mussolini, and others; a performance of a long-lost play by the Roman poet Ennius; and more.

Ernetti also told reporters that the Chronovisor no longer exists. Fearful of such a powerful technology falling into the wrong hands, Ernetti disassembled it and hid the pieces away.

The alleged photo of Jesus, which was published in the 1972 magazine article, was quickly recognized as a closeup of the face of Jesus on a known wooden sculpture.

The text of the supposed play by Ennius contains a number of Latin words that had not yet existed at the time Ennius wrote the play; meaning that whatever the source of this text, it was written at least 250 years after Ennius.
