- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).

Still christianity, mr. No True Scotsman
No, because Christianity has a solid document: The Bible. If the Bible forbids something, and someone does it, it's clearly not Christianity.
The Bible doesn't forbid it, and it isn't a solid document in any definition
Matthew 18:6 ESV but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.
You cannot use the Bible to defend Christianity. The fact that the Bible can be used in interpreted for so many different denominations, factions, colts, and even entirely opposing religions is proof in and of itself that God doesn't exist, there is no truth in the bible, and it is an utterly failed document.
Entirely opposing religions? Huh? Basically every Christian denomination agrees on 95% of things. The Bible doesn't proscribe how to practice Christianity exactly, and the differences are small things such as age of baptism, real presence, etc. I don't identify with a particular denomination, I regularly attend services across different denominations and have no qualms about doing so. By definition I am a Protestant as I am not a member of the Roman Catholic church or an Eastern Orthodox one. But I have nothing against visiting them except from them not offering me communion due to ecclesialism which was basically instituted by dead byzantine/roman empires.
Christianity, Islam, and Judaism do not agree any anything, and in fact kill each other all based on the same texts.
You people always say " it's not the religion, it's man's interpretation!!". That means IT'S THE RELIGION.
They don't have the same texts. They share the Pentateuch, Psalms, some prophecies about Jesus and that's it. Judaism has the Talmud, Christianity has the New Testament and Islam has the Qur'an and various Hadiths, and claim the New Testament is corrupted
And you have successfully made my point for me
