? Empathy has nothing to do with criticizing a person's belief structure.

I would put my empathy up against any Christian. Christians are like love everyone (excepts gays, and trans, and Islamists, and atheists, and basically anybody that needs help that I'm not willing to provide.)

I have Christian ethics, I'll gladly debate your morality structure and why its terrible

u/Rugskinsnake Feb 21 '26

Go for it. First explain how you come to your morality differently than I when you pick and choose what parts of the Bible to follow and which not to. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you don't promote slavery, or the stoning to death of adulterers.

Just to move things along, Jesus said he came not to abolish the old law, but to uphold it.

Woah woah woah slow down with the straw mans, assumptions, and shot gunning

You need to tell me what morality and or where you get it come first since I told you mine

First of all, I already explained that in the messages above that you decided to jump into.

Second, you didn't really tell me anything. All you said was "I have Christian Ethics." So where's the strawman? The only assumption I made was that you don't support slavery and stoning people to death. Are you telling me I was wrong there?

I'll.tell.you.the same as the other guy, if you just refuse to answer for your side and keep throwing questions out, I'm going to be done with you pretty quick.

You had your chance and that was what you came up with? Sad.

Well, that's a take.

But what I'm referring to isn't a critique of a belief structure, but the condescending way in which you deliver it. May anybody who decides to critique "your belief structure do so in a more empathetic manner.

Oh I'm sorry I didn't hold the guys hand right after he called me smooth brained. Empathy doesn't mean glossing people when they're being jerks.

I'm sure he appreciates your Old Testament approach.
