And your manager is a human with anger issues lol |
08:48:25 Gumnuts & Bunyip| I agree with Max. Every church and just religion in general have their issues as well as their good points. In Australia, we have had several issues in recent years concerning a certain priest who took shelter at the Vatican and only got extradited back to Australia after the government put a heap of pressure on the situation. It all started in my hometown/regional city too |
08:48:25 Max/Mael/Strommy Coppers
They said the one church they went to *felt* culty. No one is generalizing that massive number of establishments |
08:48:21 Coppers Max
Do you think every single person in those shady parishes is shady? Because I will confirm they are indeed not, and many of them are just trying their best going with the motions unaware. One must be alert |
08:47:22 Green|Gren|Grenlin| Not related but I was told I was going to burn in hell by my manager because I told her im not religious/ don't follow the Bible |
08:46:57 Coppers| I know all the news stuff, I know its shit because the church is still run by humans weaher they try to follow God or not, my only point was someone said churches are culty and I said "nah hold my beer time to discuss this generalization" |
08:46:55 Max/Mael/Strommy| You say most, the majority? If there's 350,000 churches in the US (the most conservative estimate I can find, most say more), and only 5% of those are shady that's still 17,500 churches doing something awful. That's enough to be wary of them in general |
08:45:29 Coppers Max
I never said all Christian churchs are run by saints, as my analogy states, most mac'cheese isn't sweet |
08:44:12 Max/Mael/Strommy Coppers
It's extremely naive to say there's no Christian church's that operate like a cult. There's countless news stories proving it year after year. I have no issue with Christianity in general but saying that all churchs are perfect and completely above board makes no sense |
08:43:52 Coppers| But a vast majority of it isn't sweet, and if only a little portion of the population make it sweet but everyone calls ALL mac cheese sweet, thats still wrong, because a vast majority of mac cheese isn't sweet |
08:42:24 Void Malign| depending on the recipe it can taste sweet lmfao |
08:41:22 Coppers| Nope. That's like saying everyone calling mac'n'cheese sweet makes it sweet, it doesn't make it sweet. |
08:39:21 Void Malign| weeell, if it constantly gets used to describe something, there might be some merit lol |

A theme and a half left :) |

Also I agree, no one should have to be baptized and I never said I had a problem w/ Void not getting baptized, I just didn't like the word culty being used because it is way overused in situations where it doesn't belong |
08:34:42 Coppers| I wasn't saying it was good, I was saying it's something most people do about many things aside from religion and it isn't culty, I didn't know about the whole wailing thing, thats weird |
08:34:34 Leaf| Did I miss the rest of trivia??? |
08:32:41 Max/Mael/Strommy Coppers
You shouldn't be forced into *anything* faith based. That's extremely toxic regardless of belief system. However my religion emphasizes free will and doing no harm so I'm a bit more intense about it. If being baptized is something you want that's great but you shouldn't have to be worn down until you reluctantly do it. |
08:32:23 Void Malign| ..Yeah. I've seen that too, except there was some crawling around, wailing, and begging for forgiveness |
