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.

Does that mean non-Christian mothers should be allowed to get abortions, and only the Churchers should be forbidden?

[–] theangryseal 15 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Heeeeey, compromise. I’m for it!

Unfortunately I already know their answer.

“We want to have the opportunity to bring those babies to the light. We can’t save their souls from eternal hellfire if they never have a chance to be born and know Christ.”

And then my reply would be…

“But like, doesn’t that default send them to heaven and make the job easier? I mean, if you actually want to save their souls maybe you should be for abortion as it is a guarantee.”

I don’t know what they’d say next, but I’m sure they wouldn’t budge.

They believe that you don’t go to heaven unless you’re baptized, so those aborted babies are going to hell with all the other unborn.

Ehhh, some of them believe that. Most of the Christians I grew up around (Pentecostal) believed that babies just go on to heaven.

Oooh baby baby it’s a wild world.

Yeah they all said they went to purgatory at one point, I can't remember how long for but the idea was they burn until they suffered like Jesus and can go to heaven

Competently healthy and sane belief system.
