You were either unaware of these events, or you are committing false witness. Typical apologist.


Wow, it's almost like that is *precisely* the event I was referencing when I talked about the hysteria of a "mass grave" being pushed by the media just for LIDAR and excavations to find the previous walls of a church.

I *didn't* know about that, wow guys I think I'm psychic!

Nope

No, it's not - you are, at the end of the day, concerned with what *He* can do for *you.*

How you choose to rationalize it doesn't change anything.

Nope he made it clear it makes no sense why a supposed farther cannot protect his kids from the world he made. He no way shape or form made it about him.

Not a rationalization simply an observation an one that renders the whole concept nonsensical

As of 2024 the global Jewish population is 15.7 million - the majority living in either Western nations or Israel where their rights are protected.

At least 317 million Christians live in nations where they face legal discrimination and human rights violation.

If the Jewish community has a word, it's probably to say - "Hey, don't make the same mistakes we did and let someone else genocide you while 'academics' turn a blind eye or cheer it on."

So, that’s what the Holocaust was in your perspective? Jewish people allowing the Germans to commit genocide on them while academia either turned a blind eye or cheered it on?

Also, I’d point out that the situation is a bit more complicated in Israel than “their rights are protected.” Especially given that they’re surrounded on multiple sides by nations that want them dead (which is a crucial point to understand why they’re currently committing genocide on Gaza.)

Apparently you're unaware of the scores of others of documented cases too.

It's almost like the Church has you enthralled by Stockholm Syndrome and you're unable to think for yourself.

Why do you support any organization that hides pedophiles? Why do you think ass-raping altar-boys is okay?

The price of success, maybe if they hadn't spent centuries persecuting, converting and committing genocide on other nations, they wouldn't be in this position, you never know. Though why you're whining to atheists about theists persecuting each other over whose got the best imaginary friend, isn't clear? Go to a theists forum and tell them how disappointed you are that they are mirroring centuries of Christian behaviour.

Even for you, that's pure nonsense. FYI, the Holocaust was a religious persecution that stemmed from centuries of Antisemitism from Christianity. Do you know who wasn't allowed in the SS, apart from Jews obviously? Atheists were not allowed...

"Heinrich Himmler was a strong promoter of the gottgläubig movement and did not allow atheists into the SS, arguing that their "refusal to acknowledge higher powers" would be a "potential source of indiscipline".

"The SS oath (Eidformel der Schutzstaffel), written by Himmler, also specifically denounced atheists"

Firstly, I don't believe in any god. Secondly, you're the believer here. You believe because you don't want to go to hell, so you criticizing anyone else for self-interest is hypocritical. Typical apologist bullshit, not even warmed over. Can't you guys ever get original material instead of this debunked rehash and "NO U" third-grade debate style?

I don't ask anything of your nonexistent god. I'm pointing out that your "loving father" treats you like shit and you still teabag his balls. You're afraid of hell, so you accept his little things like cancers and earthquakes and the odd pandemic.

You never bother to turn your brain on and examine the contradictions of your beliefs. That's a real pity ... you've let fear overcome rationality.

Right; most of the time it's caused by Islamic or leftist/atheist ideology - which ultimately derives back to lack of morality and jealousy.

There is no such thing as atheist ideology, what on earth has your fetid imagination dreamed up now? You just strung some demographics you hate together, in an idiotic claim they are persecuting people. Your rhetoric is simply getting funnier and funnier, it's like a Daily Mail editorial.
