Really Depressing Rant (Long)


#102

Having basically no formal education on religion, I appreciate your willingness to explain things clearly.

But at the same time, I feel like this could easily turn into underhanded, passive-agressive insults.

“Oh no, it’s not an insult, only the Lord may judge, I’m just saying you’re a dirty filthy sinner and your whole life is an abomination against nature, that’s all”.


#103

You guys are making this shift fly by.


#104

You know me, I only aim to please.


#105

lol


#106

Oh yeah, it can very easily turn into underhanded digs like that! I can’t stand it.

Obviously though, that statement is highly judgemental and the Bible warns you against being judgemental

Here’s a screenshot of Matthew 1-7 bc I couldn’t be bothered to type it all out.


#107

I’m not sure I’m picking up what you’re putting down. Maybe I didn’t explain clearly what saying sin is from me to you?


#108

Perhaps take religion out of the equation.


#109

and did he not explain to you what the term “hierophant” meant to him?

this entire argument stemmed from the fact that you didn’t like him calling his father a hierophant. what makes it okay for you to call him a sinner, regardless of explanation? i feel like there’s a double standard at work here.

Oh Shatter, religion is very intertwined in this discussion and the way Solo is being treated by his father. That’s not the answer.


#111

He did, and it was still a personal insult.


#112

No religion is not intertwind in


#113

ok my replies are getting shorter and shorter bc I have to take care of school, I’ll be back to discuss later if possible


#114

Yeah about that, no thanks. This is a runaway train to nowhere.


#115

Absolutely it is, considering the context of “heirophant” and Solo’s situation. I think you thought you did something really cool by saying “oh let’s just remove religion” and implying the problems will be solved if it’s removed, but you really didn’t.


#116

Nope just saying it adds jack shit to the conversation at hand, no one cares or wants religion brought up .


#117

Well shit. Guess I’m not actually a legit christian then…?


#118

Yipes man. Not sure if this is sarcasm or actual concern that you’ve missed something :^(


#119

But… does taking religion into account really solve anything here?

Don’t get me wrong, I think what you’re saying is interesting. But I don’t think it’s going to be any help for Sen. At the end of the day, whether his father is truly a Christian or not doesn’t change the fact that he’s being abusive and wants to force him into a life he doesn’t want to live.

Sometimes there’s no middle ground to be found. With some people, the only choice you have is between submitting to them and rejecting them.


#120

(i’m posting a public apology)


#121

You are a legit christian. You need to confess your sins every so often.

Also, Go to Church(I can’t do that because if I do, I’ll be dead within 1 minute)

My parents are baptized and all…
BUT
they don’t believe in God
