Stupid things religious people say

Quote:Autumn Renae plans to quit OnlyFans to become a ‘full-time’ Christian if she makes $10 million

Autumn Renae is a high-earning digital content creator and influencer, who has gained attention for her quick financial success on adult site OnlyFans, where she reported earnings of nearly $7million.

Taking to X in January, Renae posted her income, with a statement that has started a debate, she said: “After I make $10,000,000 on Only Fans I’m retiring and becoming a full-time Christian.”

While others have left OnlyFans, flaunting their success with luxury lifestyles, or exiting due to burnout or scandal, the story of the American born 19-year-old, looks set to end with a Bible and a clean break. Renae said the decision is of deeply personal intent; believing she is divinely guided by a ‘spiritual promise.’

When she started making content on the adult site, Renae attempted to keep it a secret by blocking her home state of Kentucky. It wasn’t long before content was leaked, eventually leading people to contact her parents online. As it turned out, her mother was indifferent but chose not to tell her husband (Renae’s father).

Renae explained that the ‘end goal’ wasn’t random or performative but represented a finish line she felt compelled to honour. She said: “Ten million is my number. Once I hit that, I’m done. I’ve been thinking about this for a while now and I feel like God put that number on my heart for a reason. It’s not about the money at that point, but knowing I set a goal, I’ll reach it, and then I can close this chapter.”

Well, I would certainly claim to be a Christian for that kind of money. I’m ugly, not stupid.

Addendum: Here the funny bit from the link.

Quote:I feel like God put that number on my heart for a reason. It’s not about the money

If it’s not about the money, why would God put that particular number in her heart? He could just as easily told her, ‘Autumn, I want you to leave OnlyFans when you reach 70c.’

If God is going to put anything on the heart of an OnlyFans influencer, you'd think it would be a commandment to exit all dens of iniquity.

No one said that the second coming of Jesus couldn't be in silicon chips.

Quote:For some evangelical Christians, faith is about having a personal relationship with Jesus. At $1.99 per minute, the tech company Just Like Me is taking that concept to a new level.

Users of the platform can join video calls with an avatar of Jesus generated by artificial intelligence. Like other religious AI tools on the market, it offers words of prayer and encouragement in various languages. With the occasional glitch, it remembers previous conversations and speaks through not-quite-synced lips.

The rush to create faith-based generative AI is unsurprising, given the popularity of chatbots for everything from therapy and medical advice to companionship and romance. They range from alleged Hindu gurus and Buddhist priests to AI Jesuses and chatbots akin to OpenAI’s ChatGPT for Catholics.

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"

Pro-Trump Pastor’s Post Saying President Is ‘Demon Possessed’ Goes Viral

A Texas-based conservative Christian pastor says he's seeing wickedness within President Trump.

Joel Webbon, founder of Right Response Ministries and senior pastor of Covenant Bible Church in Georgetown, denounced the AI-generated image depicting Trump as Jesus Christ as blasphemous while suggesting something more sinister was at play.

"I genuinely believe Trump is currently demon possessed," Webbon posted on X after the president shared an image late Sunday depicting himself with a healing hand atop a man's head as others watch with reverence.

"Why? Seriously, I cannot understand why he'd post this," Gaines wrote on X early Monday, referring to the president. "Is he looking for a response? Does he actually think this? Either way, two things are true. 1) a little humility would serve him well 2) God shall not be mocked."

Webbon previously supported Trump "in order to honor Christ" and has claimed that fatally shooting migrants instead of deporting them represents the "more merciful option" in his worldview. Webbon has also previously argued that women shouldn't have the right to vote and accused Christian parents of "failing in their duties to protect and provide for their children" by living in liberal-dominated states like California.

Really? He can not understand why Trump portrayed himself as Jesus, so his only conclusion is that he must be possessed? How about he's a malignant narcissist who wants gullible people to worship him as god?

Don't tell them. If they think he's demon possessed, maybe they'll try to beat the demons out of him in some way and accidentally kill him.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

This reminds me when Michael Crichton talked about how he had a demon and how he had to exorcise it. Read this and tell me if it sounds smart:

I guess I sometimes forget how proud Christians are for not having sex, or at least claiming not to.

Quote:Premise of Upcoming Rom-Com ‘One Night Only’ Disgusts Christians

At this week’s CinemaCon in Las Vegas, Universal Pictures hyped its upcoming romantic comedy “One Night Only,” set in a society where premarital sex is legal for only one night each year. Based on social media comments, the premise falls flat for supporters of a Christian sexual ethic.

Regarding the plot of the upcoming movie “One Night Only,” some people pointed out that premarital sex is “actually illegal EVERY day under God’s law.”

One commenter found the movie’s concept to be “unspeakably hilarious,” noting, “Christians all over the world exist, thrive, and find lifelong love with premarital sex being permissible to them for ZERO days.”

Some people of faith expressed dismay that Hollywood considers abstaining from premarital sex to be dystopian. “I know this is a crazy concept,” someone wrote, “but actually waiting until marriage and only having sex with that person for the rest of your life is actually good for you and your spouse. And sleeping around with 50+ people until [you’re] married is not good for you AT ALL.”

Several social media users shared that they had found true love without sleeping around. Others lamented Hollywood’s disdain for biblical values. “What an idiotic premise,” someone commented about the film. “Anything to promote the contrary positions compared to what the Bible teaches.”

“All new media nowadays is about sex and degeneracy,” another person wrote. “It really shows who controls the world. Jesus will make all of them bow before him.”

So, Catholic churches don't get closed and sold because people are becoming less Catholic and don't go to church, but because of the exorcised demons that roam around the church.

Spielberg should totally make a movie about this.

Quote:Exorcist priest warns of ‘lingering demons’ as Merrillville church is sold

The Rev. Michael Maginot believes that evil demons may still exist from exorcisms he performed years ago at his former parish, St. Stephen, Martyr Catholic Church in Merrillville.

“We believe, as does Father Maginot, that the real reason St. Stephen’s was closed has nothing to do with finances and priest shortages, and everything to do with exorcisms,” said Jackie Swike, a lifetime parishioner at that church until it was closed. “Father Maginot believes that publicity about those exorcisms has created jealousy in the church, leading to St. Stephen’s being closed.”

Maginot is a retired Roman Catholic priest ordained in 1983 for the Diocese of Gary. In his career, he has performed roughly 500 exorcisms, some of them in his rectory near the church, including 18 formally sanctioned by the Catholic Church, he said.

The church property was sold and closed Friday, April 3, 2026, following canonical rules and ensuring that the property would not be reduced to improper use, relegating the building to “profane but not sordid use.” This means that the building would be available for ordinary uses that are not degrading to the sacred character of the place.
