Vance thrills to bankrupt farmers
[Prescient, it turns out] For Jesse who needs to mature in Christ
https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1DWGn2Ucuu/?mibextid=wwXIfr Answer the question he puts to you, Jesse: did God, the eternal God, go to a plan B for salvation because - God didn't know, or - did God go to plan B after wasting time since with the expulsion from Paradise and Noah, and Abraham, and Moses, and David, and exile, and the whole Israel thing, or - wasn't plan A - the Incarnation - simply the eternal plan of God's faithfulness with His Creation all along?
Not pertinent to the post… except that Vance is still a radical protestant just taking communion more often.
ReplyDeleteBut as for protestant theologies, I agree with you. Completely shot through with sectarianism and segregationalism; co-creating with rapacious capitalism the Atlantic slave trade; an attitude of disgust toward human beings and this planet consigning it all to hell; thinking a book of 2 to 3 thousand year old scriptures can answer any and every aspect of modern human life.
It’s a gutter religion..
“Unknown” had previously written (and I guess later deleted):
ReplyDelete“ I think that Christians are just crazy and stupid people. The fact that they pray to a god whom they have never seen or heard from before proves my point. If it were any other context outside of religion, psychologists would call this behavior mental illness. The whole obsession with a Jewish man's blood is creepy. They celebrate the murder of a man who was reportedly innocent of crimes he was accused of. Disgusting. The idea of an eternal heaven itself is ridiculous. I mean, you are going to go crazy from boredom after doing nothing but chores for your god forever. It makes more logical sense to be able to tune out of existence, or perhaps, to be able to tune in and out whenever one feels like it. I absolutely support the religious persecution of Christians. I do it all of the time. I just fired a stupid evangelical bastard last week because he brought up the resurrection. It is like, dude, dead people cannot come back to life. It is biologically impossible. Absolutely impossible.”
