Oh, look! Another "progressive Christian" who doesn't care what the Bible says.
What a shocker!
Rev. Justin Berkobien@JustinBerkobien
As a Christian man I hereby distance myself—publicly and for all time—from the Christian men who suggest their wives are OBLIGATED to sleep with them. How utterly pathetic, abusive, and un-Christlike.

@UbiPetrus2019 Ubi, please, you're only making it worse. Stop whining.
English
A woman who's made herself completely unweddable to most men wrote an article browbeating social awkward Gen Z men (who've been seriously struggling to find careers & make friends & who've been browbeaten by women their entire lives) on just how unweddable they are.
English
@RepJackKimble Do you have ANY IDEA how tone deaf this is? There are tons of people smarter than you are who'd LOVE to earn what you earn and have perpetual health insurance. For only 140 days a year? Are you KIDDING?
English
Just a friendly warning. We don’t even make $200k per year in Congress despite working nearly 140 days. If we aren’t properly compensated, a lot of us will go to the private sector and you will be left with some real idiots in Congress.

@RachelBitecofer @suzamaroo Ours is a country founded on the principle that ANYONE can be filthy rich. To limit someone else's wealth limits what I can have.
English
@suzamaroo Not just American history- world history.
We have the only working class in the world voting for the party of big business.
It’s pretty wild.

@Jubilee4CHANGE I guess I'm glad there are people like you who call Dale out, but I hope you don't let him consume too much energy. He really isn't worth it.
English
Code for:
Femininity is weak & docile while masculinity is vile & brutish.
He's trying to beat women into submission while laying groundwork for men to be violent w/impunity.
It's sick. It's unChristlike.
I'm telling you, RUN!!!!
Dale Partridge@dalepartridge
No man wants a woman who cusses. Swear words, obscenities, profanity, and vulgarity are not feminine or godly. Foul language is foul. But from women, who are to be the “fairer sex” and the “gentle and quiet spirits,” it’s abhorrent. Stop it.
English
4 Million women are on onlyfans selling their souls.
But no one is talking about 240 Million men who consume it everyday
𝐥𝐲𝐫𝐚@sunnkssdseraph
an unpopular opinion that would put you in this situation.

@hookskat I walked away from mine, too, for a while. Didn't really come back to my parents' faith, created something different. Something my own.
English
@jhkrantz It didn't with mine. Walking away from the Christian faith made my life better.
English
@JDVance JD, I pray that the damage you do to your soul with this kind of prevarication brings you to repentance.
English
There’s a reason President Trump is respected by world leaders, and it’s because he’s consistently shown a level of strength that we haven’t seen from our Commander in Chief in modern history.

.@POTUS on his state visit to China: "We have a relationship, he and I, and we've been working together a long time. We've gotten along well. When I first came here, China was really taking advantage of the United States—he understands that—and now, we do great with China."

Historical fiction from Bible scholar Luna.
Richard Hanania@RichardHanania
Anna Paulina Luna tells Rogan that the King James Bible was a bible that was rewritten so that a king could get remarried. How do you even make a mistake like this? You can usually see how stupid people got to their conclusions. She just puts random thoughts together.
English
@hookskat No, I agree it doesn't. Make it so, but it makes my life better and enables me to do more for others.
English
@jhkrantz You are right I mean can't.
“Preferable to nonbelief” is a weird statement.
I suppose I could say it might be preferable if a loving god controlled the world and cared about his creation. Preferable doesn't make it so, and the evidence says otherwise.
English
@hookskat I think you meant "can't comprehend?" I just mean it isn't a "whim", it's a considered decision. I find belief in the God present to me in Jesus to be preferable to non-belief. Or belief in any other God. Perhaps I can do this because I wasn't brought up evangelical.
English
@jhkrantz Even if you don't believe ALLAH exists? Really?
I can comprehend you you think you can simply choose something to believe on a whim.
English
I know I'm gonna regret saying this, but it is a fair point for discussion...
Mr. Nobody@MmisterNobody
Sorry folks, but you are not living on a spinning, curving ball rotating at 1,039 mph at the equator, orbiting the sun at 66,600 mph, moving through the Milky Way at 450,000 mph, and racing through an ever-expanding universe at 1.3 million mph, all while Polaris stays fixed above the North Pole.
English
@hookskat Simply not true, of me at least. It may sound weird, but if I were to choose Allah, it would be because Allah seems better to me, not more true or whatever.
English
@jhkrantz If you were to “choose” Allah instead of Bible God, it would only be because you were convinced he was god of all.…. Not on simple choice like picking vanilla over chocolate ice-cream.
English
@hookskat I'm pretty self aware, and I don't think it's a lie. But I also think that I grew up with a different understanding of "belief." Unbelief never shocked me. I've always found my atheist friends to be just as "faithful" to their values as I am to God.
English
@jhkrantz I think this is a lie, and you know it is.
When I was a believer there is no way I could have “chosen” not to believe. Unbelief shocked and dismayed me at first. It was an event, not a choice.
The only choice I made was to investigate what I believed in order to grow.
English
@aprilajoyr @megbasham Welllllll.. she *can*... Just sounds really dumb.
English
You can't say voting is not a sign of eternal devotion and then immediately say faithful Christians can't vote a certain way. I know you want to feel better about championing an anti-christ like Trump but it's hypocritical to expect grace for your vote and not extend that same grace to Christians who voted differently bc we saw how awful he was.
English
Yes, because what you fail to see April is that the best available set of policies for the Christian cannot be the maximum amount of baby killing and the maximum amount of perversion.
And that is what the Democrats offer. Anyone formed by Christian ethics should see no inconsistency here.
April Ajoy@aprilajoyr
The hypocrisy/cognitive dissonance of MAGA Christians perfectly displayed by these two statements said within 24 hours of each other 🤦🏼♀️

@murderering I'm afraid this dear brother (or sister, I suppose) is gonna need someone to puree their food for them. I've heard when you lose your mind you can forget how to chew.

😂😂🤣🤣 A Wolf if ever I saw one.

@murderering Speaking of wondering, it's a wonder you're not already a generous recurring giver to my Building Fund, and by that I mean the new addition I'm putting on my already palatial vacation home in Cabo. DM for details, we take Venmo, PayPal and Apple Pay (new!).
English
@hookskat Not at all. I prefer to believe that there is a good God. I could easily decide otherwise. I have trouble figuring out why I would want to..
English
@jhkrantz But you can't choose to believe there isn't. Not if you really believe it.
You know this is true.
English
@hookskat I can *imagine* that there is no God. I *choose to believe that there is.
English
@jhkrantz I doubt that. Since you are convinced god does exist….. Try believing he doesn't.
That is the position I am in. I don't believe, so I can't.
English
@hookskat It is in my world. It's a decision to trust one reality over another, or others. There's no certainty.
