Is empathy a sin? Some conservative Christians argue it can be

[DetroitEWarren]

yes, the god in the bible is a mass murderer. but i don't believe in any of that shyt

with all this wolfing on the internet, you should go do it in real life. go fight the israelis, or the republicans. do something tangible

I really want to but God makes sure that I'm never in the presence of these types of folks.

I've fukked up 3 people for political/cultural fukkery. I do this shyt bro. God watches over me though, God wants me here and I have a mission but idk what it is yet. I think bro wants me to get into politics and run for a position but the only thing I would go for is President because anyone can run and my podcast run would be so epic I could get millions of people behind me. But that's besides the point.

God would never put me around a loud mouth Zionist because he knows what I would possibly do. I still got a mission to complete. As soon as I figure out what it is, I'll let your mother know.

Some "Christians" gonna get there 1 minute in front of Jesus and he's gonna say "I dunno you"


Matthew 25:34-46

Then the King will say to those on His right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. 35For I was hungry and you gave Me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave Me something to drink, I was a stranger and you took Me in, 36I was naked and you clothed Me, I was sick and you looked after Me, I was in prison and you visited Me.’

37Then the righteous will answer Him, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You something to drink? 38When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You? 39When did we see You sick or in prison and visit You?’

40And the King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of Mine, you did for Me.’

41Then He will say to those on His left, ‘Depart from Me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 42For I was hungry and you gave Me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave Me nothing to drink, 43I was a stranger and you did not take Me in, I was naked and you did not clothe Me, I was sick and in prison and you did not visit Me.’

44And they too will reply, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to You?’

45Then the King will answer, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for Me.’

46And they will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”

You know how unhinged you have to be to say, empathy is a sin

This isn't news. See the last 2000 years. And their god has generously rewarded them for thid mindset.

The difference between black Christians and white Christians

 

[O.T.I.S.]

Christian conservatives are the biggest pieces of shyt. They are behind all of the racism, sexism, xenophobia, homophobia, anti-intellectualism, and pedophilia in this country

They hide behind the Bible without doing anything it actually says in the Bible.

The Righteous Gemstones is a kinda funny parody of these types.


Religion in itself can be a very positive thing but like humans do, they weaponize it imo.

thats not God doing that. Just step outside your normal environments and you'll encounter them. Whatever happens after that is up to you but don't say God is keeping you from meeting these people. That's primarily an effect of your own surroundings

you say that but you didnt choose the world you were born in, God did

so it is true that God brings you the people he wants to

you dont bring those people to yourself

i still maintain that "modern" zionism is confusion

Conservative White Evangelical Christian Churches are literally the Klan.

Dude makes great videos. The irony is, he considers himself rightwing... but he made a video a few years back and he took a political compass test and realized he had very little in common with this right wing evangelical crowd. It was kinda funny to watch.

Nah, I don't know bro. I do have white friends and I go to white/mixed crowd bars a lot. I've had political conversations with hardcore Trumpers but most people have the common sense to keep conversations respectful in person. I also come off as a really humble dude when I talk to folks but I speak strongly and emphatically enough that people can see I'm passionate about it and that I might snap over it. When people can read that but still see the humility during conversation they try to keep things peaceful.

I know most of y'all nikkas only see me on here and it's text most of the time, but I'm a really likeable nikka for any culture and I'm hood as hell but intelligent, well spoken, and very empathetic. I'm very extroverted so I naturally end up in random conversations with random people. I think God definitely has something to do with it breh. It's not the only scenario where he kept me away from an incident or spoken word that I may have snapped over.

Yeah I hear him refer to himself as a libertarian before but just watching his videos you would think he was to the left

That's why it was funny. Dude comes off like a Minnesota democrat. As smart as he is, he lacks self awareness like some smart people.
