What's even funnier is while I am a "Christian", this is actually a very critical Christian meme. But I'm also of the belief that most satanists make better Christians than Christians do so...
It is kinda funny to imagine Minnesota being run by a bunch of based satanists feeding kids and such.
Sounds like the kind of people Jesus would hang out with.
Honestly? Nah. Jesus wouldn’t be hanging with Satanists because that would be preaching to the converted - His work is already done. Fact is that Jesus likely would spend his time with right-wing Christofascists, but he would spend all of his time trying to convince them why they’re wrong. He’d be crucified again, but that’s kinda His deal. He hung out with vagrants and prostitutes because those were the ones who needed Him most; these days the ones who need Him most are the false Christians.
He spent a good amount of time hanging out with the fishermen. You know the people that would feed the community. I'm not saying you're wrong though. But I don't think he would be hanging out as much as lecturing the christians
I think there's a distinct difference between him with the 'sinners' and him with the fishermen. By my probably biased understanding, most of what he did with the fishermen/apostles was tell them what to do, like one facet of a leader. And what he seemed to do with everyone else was uplift and occasionally teach, also like a leader.
Again, biased, I'm a Mormon.
Honestly I consider it a consequence of how long Christianity functioned as a state affair
Christians who sit in pews like angels and then don't even glance towards the needy aren't so much signaling their own piety as much as acting out a previously enforced by law custom for which not obliging would get you condemned by your community.
The conservative doesn't see traditions as an expression of a culture and its values, but rather as rituals that they had to endure whether they liked it or not and so now you do too.
My dad's a devout Christian and the man let me and my sis both stop attending church long before we were both old enough to go away to college, although tbf that may have been more because he was sick of the effort of waking us both up for the sermon he wanted to go to lol.
