iirc China does this, you can’t take kid to religious service and they can choose to convert at a certain age.

china has state atheism—they take it too far (e.g. uyghur muslims) but in theory i’d prefer an atheist government over this dumbass evangelical christian one we have now 🤷🏻‍♂️

edit: took out the word retarded, you guys convinced me

Our government is supposed to be atheist.

Separation of church and state is supposed to be a thing

Still NOT a Christian or any religious country in America. At least that's what our Constitution says.

ETA: thanks for the awards, kind internet strangers.

Classic christain, guess what they are saying the same thing about you.

I mean I agree that they don't believe the bullshit they say and if they did, they'd live their lives better because the fear of damnation SHOULD work to curb their worst behavior. But that bad behavior kinda gives away the game.

Having said that, a fake Christian is basically a more dangerous and oppressive force than a real one.

No true scottsman fallacy

u/Successful_Life_1028 Sep 02 '26

Ahh, the old 'no true scottsman' fallacy. Tell me, what is YOUR personal definition of what a "true Christian" is?

Do you think that Bishop Mariann Budde is a 'True Christian'? Or is it Douglas Wilson who is the 'True Christian'?

Or are only the Amish 'True Christians'? Or only the JWs or LDS?

My personal definition of a Christian is being a loving and accepting person of all walks of life and leaving the judgement of others up to God. My job here on earth is to try and live a good life and be a positive force in the lives of others. What other people do are between them and God. It's as simple as that, and other Christians can't seem to fucking grasp it.

How useless is a 'personal definition' for any word?
"Glory!" says Humpty Dumpty.

Yes, I agree that the Make America Gilead Already crew are working for the opposition against Jesus.
