God Arguments

Atheism is a deeply unserious philosophical view. My tolerance for discussing it with guys who storm in with snark and a chip on their shoulders is extremely low, especially when I'm being polite. They're very easy to replace, especially since the arguments never change.

The head of the Anglican Church only issues messages celebrating Eid.

@VDAREJamesK She's objectively kind of dumb, but unfortunately all of her most zealous supporters are worse, so there's no getting through to them. To her, she's a wizard putting big impressive words together, so clearly she's a genius.

This is the problem with treating the Supreme Court like the Oscars, essentially just a self-esteem boost for insecure nons.

For Christians wishing Jews a "Happy Passover," you've got no idea what you're doing, what the holiday is actually about, or what those man-made post-temple Rabbinic traditions mean that are being observed. If you knew, you wouldn't wish them a happy holiday. First, keep in mind that all of the real rituals, given by God through Moses, for the real holiday, have been impossible to observe for roughly 1956 years. What they're observing are new rites made up by rabbis, which are necessary when the thing the rituals were designed to foreshadow (Christ's atonement) has already happened. And what these new rituals are designed to show would blow your mind; chiefly, if you're a Christian, it is designed as a hopeful longing for the day that God annihilates Christians and eternally damns their souls. The Seder's fourth-cup ritual, the Shfoch Chamatkha ("Pour out Your wrath") recitation, is explicitly directed at Christians. Talmudic tractate sources, the Prague and Frankfurt Machzors, the Polish Siddurim, and Rabbi Abarbanel's Sevach Pesach all confirm that the "nations" receiving four cups of divine vengeance are not some abstract theological category but Edom, which the rabbinic tradition consistently codes as Christianity. They drink it in anticipation of our destruction. But it doesn't stop there. The Shabbat HaGadol (the Saturday before Passover) prayer includes a petition comparing Christendom to "a ravening beast." Day one prayers petition God to hew down the "bears, leopards, lions, and swine" (Persia, Greece, Babylon, and Rome/Christendom like pieces of slaughtered livestock. Prayers offered on Day 2 and Day 7 aren't any better. In fact, the entire Rabbinic Passover liturgy is built around a new typology: the Exodus from Egypt is the template, with Christians as the new Egyptians awaiting ten plagues and prayerful hope that God soon destroys us. So while you think you're being loving in wishing the Jews a happy and fun time at their anti-Jesus holiday, just know that they are cursing your existence and praying for your deaths and eternal destruction. "Happy Passover" is one of the dumber phrases that could ever be uttered by a Christian to a Jew. It's not loving. It's stupid and naive.

@WhitePapersPol Will also help put the nail in the coffin of respect for judicial decisions and precedent. 'We can't do that, the judges ruled it was unconstitutional' will be a power check, nothing more.

SCOTUS' decision will determine whether or not Americans continue to venerate the Constitution. If SCOTUS retains birthright citizenship then millions of patriotic Americans will abandon veneration of the Constitution. There is no reason to venerate a national suicide pact.

I respect people who have a long lineage in the US, but only insofar as that history is a positive one of American loyalty. Some people in the US are at this point descended from a line of traitors.

Not just an American problem.

We still make Americans like this

@SydSteyerhart Lots of people saying "Stop blaming the Constitution! It was the people who failed!" The same people who praise the Constitution also praised themselves for "not seeing color", which also kept them from noticing which groups didn't care much about the Constitution.

Any thinking man under 35 finds more wisdom in a single line from Anton Chigurh than the Constitution, Declaration, Federalist papers, and the entire philosophy of Locke, Mills, Hume, and Paine together.

Then I notice that Nick Fuentes is mentioned in, of all places, Crisis Magazine. Big headline and everything. Partly positive too. Funny times.

Can't help but notice the complete silence of conservative Catholics on the birthright citizenship question.

I would rather be called a racist or an islamophobe than enable rape, to be honest. After what we’ve seen and heard at our rape gang inquiry, those meaningless words have no impact anymore.

@SuperMeatBoy Things have been getting worse for trans people, and will continue to get worse until people decide "Being trans isn't worth it" and instead get therapy that removes the desire to be trans in the first place. You're abusing them for politics and a sex fetish.

Not just today, but every day:

JUST IN: US-Israeli strikes hit Russian Orthodox church in Tehran, Iran.

Something actually positive. Not 12 transexual muslim prisoners a la Francis.

@AsianDawn4 'Refugees' or guest workers should live in mortal terror of being associated with violence against the host nation. Just doing what that guy did on camera should carry a harsh punishment for himself, even/especially if it impacts dependents.

@LepantoInst Thanks for the notice at least, and it really is a rotten joke.

This is an awful April Fool’s joke. It was in horrible taste and should be deleted. But we are sharing it ONLY to let you know that this is not true, and not to lose your peace over it.

@uubzu I think it's pretty much the opposite: the trans movement proves (female) feminists never had much power. They couldn't even defend the very idea of what a woman is. All their "spaces" have been invaded, and with rare exception most seem downright afraid of objecting to it.

There are those who say that much of the blame for trans lies at the feet of feminists: they smashed the glass ceiling, little realizing they lived in that same glass house How much truth in this?
