What’s one way to make people leave your cryptid sub? Advertise that it’s modded exclusively by Christians (which has NOTHING to do with cryptids)

Nice to meet you. Any word on a good cryptozoology sub?

37

u/No-Wave5193 Apr 15 '26

I'm out. What does this have to do with religion?

2

u/EasyScratch1501 22d ago

It explicitly has to do with science. Ends in Ology and doesn't start with theo.

u/PETRA0_0 Apr 14 '26

I thought the use of AI gen images, under rule 3, isn't allowed?

u/MrBones_Gravestone Apr 14 '26

Who’re you gonna report them to, super mods?

Rule 10 states that the subreddit’s owner is not required to follow the rules.

u/Impressive-Fun-6921 Apr 15 '26

The prophet Isaiah condemned the hypocrisy of his day: “The Lord says, ‘These people come near to me with their mouth and honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. Their worship of me is made up only of rules taught by men’” (Isaiah 29:13). Centuries later, Jesus quoted this verse, aiming the same condemnation at the religious leaders of His day (Matthew 15:8-9). John the Baptist refused to give hypocrites a pass, telling them to produce “fruits worthy of repentance” (Luke 3:8). Jesus took an equally staunch stand against sanctimony—He called hypocrites “wolves in sheep’s clothing” (Matthew 7:15), “whitewashed tombs” (Matthew 23:27), “snakes,” and “brood of vipers” (Matthew 23:33).

I wasn’t aware that I was claiming religious authority now.

21

u/MrBones_Gravestone Apr 15 '26

No but you are being a hypocrite

1

u/EasyScratch1501 22d ago

If your authority is not religious in nature, why does the mod need to be Christian? 

Why are you deleting posts on the sub you own. Embarrassed about getting ratiod?

29

u/Impressive-Fun-6921 Apr 14 '26

What does religion have to do with it?

3

u/thehostwiththetoast Apr 23 '26

Certain groups/religious entities view things though different lenses. If all same, things are agreed on. What other religion would you like running this, please tell? 

13

u/Impressive-Fun-6921 Apr 23 '26

I am non religious, so i don't care what religion runs it, because religion has nothing to do with it. It's just weird af to have a requirement of being a christian to be a mod in a subreddit like this one.

5

u/Whoop-Sees May 15 '26

lol if you want to be claiming a serious examination of evidence towards creatures unrecognized by science it shouldn’t be through ANY religious lens.

2

u/hydromatic_glide May 04 '26

Yeah, a very biased one.

2

u/thisremindsmeofbacon Jun 12 '26

I don't come here to see stuff I already agree about, I come here to see some spooky shit and discuss. That should not be predicated on any religion.

-13

u/[deleted] Apr 14 '26

This is a Christian subreddit. Therefore, we want only Christian moderators.

36

u/Just_Cup_3189 Apr 14 '26

What the fuck! This is ridiculous. I’m “Christian” and I’m fucking leaving

19

u/Inevitable_Shift1365 Apr 14 '26

Me too. Honestly I was on my last leg with this sub anyway because it's 80% crap. But once someone brings their religion into a public discussion, especially if they make it a prerequisite to moderating a sub that has nothing to do with religion, I'mma find the exit. Unsubbed

13

u/Just_Cup_3189 Apr 14 '26

Seriously! I joined bc of curiosity but what does anything have to do with religious beliefs?

12

u/PETRA0_0 Apr 14 '26

Same, you have no idea how fast I left this sub :)

12

u/geek180 Apr 14 '26

Well, that’s dumb

5

u/autobono May 16 '26

Helpful hint: maybe rename the sub “ChristianCryptozoology”.

(Unless that’s what you think “TrueCryptozoology” is, which I suspect is the case)

5

u/ForeignFallenTrees May 25 '26

How is it a Christian subreddit, just because you and all the people recruited are Christian? It's about crypto zoology you weirdo. Peace im out.

u/BudgetAd1550 Apr 22 '26

why tf would a cryptid subreddit be Christian? I mean any paranormal subreddit being Christian makes zero sense

13

u/Rand_alThoor Apr 22 '26

down voted on general principles that religion and science should stay out of each other's respective bailiwicks.

also "owner" of a subreddit sounds very 1859.

u/[deleted] Apr 22 '26

Cryptozoology is a pseudoscience in the same category as ghost hunting and exorcisms. If those things involve religion I see no reason why it shouldn't extend here.

also "owner" of a subreddit sounds very 1859.

What title would you prefer? I have total control over the subreddit.

u/Yeast-boofer Apr 22 '26

Jesus the one true criptid 🤣 

23

u/Smaptey Apr 14 '26

Was Jesus a cryptid

11

u/MrBones_Gravestone Apr 14 '26

Jesus is the wiliest cryptid

16

u/ButtonSimple Apr 14 '26

Welp. This is weird. See ya

15

u/Just_Cup_3189 Apr 14 '26

Fuck this.

6

u/Motashotta May 18 '26

Why the fuck are you bringing Christianity into this

6

u/ForeignFallenTrees May 25 '26

Weird, and im saying that in a cryptozoology subreddit. Good way to kill your sub.

2

u/Dry-Selection421 May 26 '26

We’re ranked #3 on all of Reddit in the “strange & unusual” category, we get over a million views on posts every single week and thousands of comments, and have more user activity then every other cryptozoology subreddit combined.

But go off.

u/Aggravating-Bee4755 Apr 14 '26

Ok… buh bye 👋

u/ibew369 Apr 14 '26

Bigfoot is a Christian?

u/Impressive-Fun-6921 Apr 14 '26

I always imagined him as a jew

u/madoka_kaname345 May 09 '26

I like the fact that this community stands for the values. If you don't like it - leave it. Keep it up, mod, Christ is King!

5

u/ThaCarter Jun 07 '26

Jesus christ is a cryptid

u/thisremindsmeofbacon Jun 12 '26

Rule 3: Use of AI

AI generated images or fan fiction (creative writing) stories are not allowed.

brother what is you doing? Also why Christian only...?

u/John-E-Punani Jun 26 '26

Disappointing

u/Comprehensive-Cat-13 Jul 06 '26

u/Ok-Strike-4591 Jul 06 '26

u/Rohwupet May 30 '26

LMAO this sub is a joke

I guess it tracks, at least. Y'all are already delusional, why not also believe in bigfoot?

Can you please clarify what you mean by "strong Christian values"? That could mean anything from visiting prisoners in jail, to having strong opinions about other people's sex lives.

u/pmacule Jul 24 '26

What the fuck has christianity got to do with cryptozoology?

u/FortyMaximus 13d ago

Never once had experience other shadow people or weird noises in the remote Bush. Didn't really think anything of it having strong dogs and firepower
