About

This is the official Lemmy for the r/ReligiousCringe***** subreddit. This is a community about poking fun at the religious fundamentalist's who take their religion a little bit too far. Here you will find religious content that is so outrageous and so cringeworthy that even someone who is mildly religious will cringe.

Rules

  1. All posts must contain religious cringe. All posts must be made from a religious person or must be showcasing some kind of religious bigotry. The only exception to this is rule 2

  2. Material about religious bigots made by non-bigots is only allowed from Friday-Sunday EST. In an effort to keep this community on the topic of religious cringe and bigotry we have decide to limit stuff like atheist memes to only the weekends.

  3. No direct links to religious cringe. To prevent religious bigots from getting our clicks and views directs links to religious cringe are not allowed. If you must a post a screenshot of the site or use archive.ph. If it is a YouTube video please use a YouTube frontend like Piped or Invidious

  4. No Proselytizing. Proselytizing is defined as trying to convert someone to a particular religion or certain world view. Doing so will get you banned.

  5. Spammers and Trolls will be instantly banned. No exceptions.

Ah yes, the roving bands of atheists who will demand you renounce Christianity or die.

Who hasn't heard of those guys?

And honestly, while I haven't talked to god in a while, I doubt he'd get mad over a little lie to protect the health and wellbeing of me and my family. Bit of a dick move otherwise

It would have been more believable if it was some other religion's symbol instead of a "no Christianity" atheism symbol. It's really only religious folks who get worked up about someone else's religious beliefs unless that someone else is trying to force them on others.

The church I was dragged to as a child had several "teachers" who drove it into us year after year all about how there will be people coming to the church to kill everyone who doesn't say they hate God. Then asked us who would deny God to "cling to your sinful flesh".

I got in trouble and had to stop going to their "lessons" because saying "yeah I'd do it so I can live another day and fight back" was not the answer they were looking for.

They really do love painting that target on their forehead and pretend it's real and that someone else put it there.
