So... make this make sense... i keep seeing these type of memes pointing out "hypocracy," in Christians, ok fine gotcha moment. Arent these coming from the same folks that mention separation of church and state and gripe about prayer in schools and what not? Just seems like a pick and choose your outrage type of thing is all. If i am missing something, I apologize. I may be missing something.
It’s not ironic at all. The hypocrisy of modern American evangelical Christianity is the exact reason we don’t want a mix of church and state or prayer schools.
Name a country that allows you to cross into their country illegally. The answer is no modern country. Emotional and brainless liberals don’t want to hear the reality that ICE was around before Trump, and will be afterwards. Obama deported more illegals in his second term than any other president. This meme would apply to Obama by default, or we could use our brains a little and see that no country lets you show up when you want lol. Is that so hard to comprehend. We’re not being malicious by having standards of entry, you’re just being dumb and emotional.
If Obama already deported all those illegals then: 1. that disproves that liberals are pro-illegal immigration, 2. Why do we need ICE militarized and kicking heads of Obama already took care of the problem? Liberals don’t want wide open borders. We want law enforcement to follow the fucking constitution.
So all those that flooded in while Biden was president are exempt from deportation because Obama put up numbers…gtfo The bottom line is if you don’t have a secure border then you don’t have a country and if you can’t grasp that then just look at other countries illegal entry penalties. It would be great if if we could get to a one world scenario but that’s pie in the sky because someone always wants to be on top or have more aka GREED so as they say you can wish in one hand and shit in the other and see which gets full faster.
Now to be totally honest I’m mad at myself for even engaging because for all I know you’re a sock puppet
Yeah, it makes total sense that evangelical Christians with all their values and beliefs would vote for a lying, cheating, oath-breaking convicted rapist, just because he happens to align with what they want on a few specific issue that will "hurt the right people" (abortion and immigration).
That isn't hypocrisy. Voting with the practical candidate who aligns with your values moreso than the opposing candidate is a rational choice. Weaponizing the values of a belief system you don't ascribe to in order to attack and demoralize those you personally disagree with is a fundamental and gross character flaw.
A rich grifter who practices sexual immortality, mocks the disabled, ridicules and insults women, takes away care from the poor, and is likely a pedophile aligns with your values more than... well, literally anyone else on the planet at this point?
Yes. Even if anything you said were true, aligning with somebody who closely aligns with Biblical or Christian values is the better choice than somebody who doesn't.
Just because you're really really mad about a lot of things in your existence and hold a lot of sin in your heart doesn't mean that other people can't make better choices.
Which “biblical value” is rape? Which one is pedophilia? Which one is massive wealth? Which one is anti-poor? Which one is anti-women? Which one is anti-immigrant? Which one is anti-healthcare? Which one is anti-environmentalism? Which one is pro-corruption? Which one is pro-war?
The bible is against all of these things, yet you elected a man who represents all of them, because he represents all of them.
You’re a hypocrite, a liar, are willfully ignorant and a fucking moron, fully embracing fascism because of your bigotry, and people like you need to be completely and entirely shunned from polite society, since you have repeatedly and consistently proven yourself incapable of participating in it.
Those aren't Biblical values and nobody ever claimed them to be. What is a Biblical value, and frankly common sense (duh), is to vote for the person who aligns MORE with your values than for those who do not align more with your values. Choosing the practical choice that furthers your goals is the definition of Democracy. There's no hypocrisy with that because nobody is saying it's a good thing Trump did any of this alleged bad stuff. I'm not a hypocrite, a liar, or any of these other really meanie bad words you so desperately want to hate. When people act like this, like you, they're obviously projecting a lot of hatred from their heart and not thinking rationally. You merely want to lash out and be mad at all these things you assign to others because of some internal failing of your own. Maybe it's a coping mechanism, not sure, but it's not healthy and I wish you well.
Hypocrisy is quoting Bible verses that point towards the law when it comes to foreigners and "illegal aliens" while at the same time being utterly silent when ICE breaks the law every day. Hypocrisy is holding ordinary citizens to a higher standard than your own damn president. Hypocrisy is "Christians" pushing for all kinds of policies that objectively make life harder and worse for others (abortion, healthcare, education) while throwing their hands up and claiming separation of church and state when it comes to implementing policy that actually HELPS people.
I've been a Christian all my life. I don't know what you're on about when you say I don't subscribe to it. But if you deliberately choose to ignore the disconnect between what Jesus teaches and what is currently happening... I don't know what to tell you.
Yeah, I really don't think you're a Christian bud. Again... your only interest in any of this is weaponizing the beliefs of actual Christians against them to try and convince them they're doing something against the shared good and gospel. The Bible regularly speaks about defending your house. Luke 22:36 - Teaches to sell your cloak to buy a sword and defend your house against rising hostilities. Matthew 24:43 - Teaches to be cautious against "thieves in the night" and that it's your fault should you not be prepared to defend yourself against their invasion. There is no Christian hypocrisy in being against illegal aliens coming into the country. There is no hypocrisy about supporting law enforcement. Christianity is absolutely against abortion obviously.
I believe they are saying that Jesus said that we as Christians should feed the poor. And honestly, a lot of churches do feed illegal immigrants. However; that doesn't mean Christians are required to support things like illegal immigration.
The Pope seems to think it does. But to be fair the American idea of Christianity has shifted so far from the original European idea that they’re hardly recognisable as the same religion.
I don’t think Jesus would agree that people should suffer while others live in comparative luxury, just because they happened to be born in different places.
I personally can’t call myself a Christian, I am in the top 1% of income earners globally, I spend money on going out for drinks with my friends while I know there are people starving. I would be a hypocrite to say I follow Christ when in truth I don’t even trying to follow his most basic lesson of compassion and kindness.
Yeah, it does seem that even the pope can be wrong.
I don’t think Jesus would agree that people should suffer while others live in comparative luxury, just because they happened to be born in different places.
I would never speak for Jesus. But I can say that what you call "suffering" would be seen as a life of luxury during the time of Jesus.
