• So, God does command the killing of children, but you dismissed it because it was before God impregnated a married woman.

    And then you dismissed all the children who died and forced into labor with the churches blessings.

    And you end with a completely unrelated quote, yhea, then why is the Catholic Church sitting on countless gold and treasures?

    Christianity is one of the most toxic religions in history. Used to prop up tyrants and control the population. and you absolutely refuse to acknowledge any of that. yet you use that to enforce your closeted views on others.

      please research the Amalec and their deeds “With the churches blessings” sources

      The Vatican is not “sitting on gold” for you, its just Gold but those are theological and ancient artifacts that they have to preserve. According to you, we should melt all the ancient coins from Rome to get silver?

      “in history” not NOW tho, why would I burn a church NOW

      and SOURCES CITE SOURCES

        Tell me, what deeds did Amalek commit to warrant murdering their children?

        Also, Christianity promoted and benefited from colonialism and slave trade isn’t a debatable topic, it’s settled history. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christianity_and_colonialism

        You can be a Christian, as long as you do it without shoving your bullshit ideals down other people’s throats. Whenever I need something shoved down my throat I contact your husband.

          look inside

          “some missionaries” and people that used Christianity to try to justify Colonialism, Christianity was basically the state religion of colonial powers but that doesnt mean all christians were colonizers

          “Colonialism” is a very broad term and there were a bunch of slave trades from 30 AD to 2026 AD, which one did we “benefit” from? The transatlantic or another?

          Deuteronomy 25:18 How he met thee: and slew the hindmost of the army, who sat down, being weary, when thou wast spent with hunger and labour, and he feared not God.

          Deeds of the Amalek

            So amalek feared no God, and therefore it is OK to murder all the children in that kingdom?

            I do not believe in God, do you think it is ethical to murder my daughters?

                Nope, it was just meaningless. Their army attacked Israel army and they lost their rearguard. That’s called a battle. that, in no way shape or form justifies genocide or mass child murder.

                You are clearly proving my point, you are promoting a religion that kills children. Very “pro-life” of you.

                  they attacked Israel, not the military itself. They slaughtered children and did much worse deeds that we have a chance of not even knowing right now

                    “slew the hindmost of our army”

                    If there were children in Israeli army, that is 100% on Israel. but it only says that they killed soldiers.

                    Now you going to pull “Israel has the right to defend itself” bullshit? no, there is never a justification for genocide.

                    But Genocide is Christianity’s favourite hobby

                  “A religion that kills children” this is the old testament, which Jesus fulfilled, which mostly does not apply to Catholicism

                  Go ask Judaism, they still have it in full effect

                    Yet, you keep defending the murder of children in that case.

                    And if Jesus nullified the old testament, why yhe fuck are all Christians quoting it to harras and take the rights away from homosexuals?

                    And now you are also bringing up amtisemitism. Wow

                    nice seeing an honest Christian explaining non stop how shitty Christianity is.

                Damn, you really are doubling down on genocide.

                Not even a discussion, I’m just sitting here reading you straight up admit to fetishize and defend mass child murder.

                And your justification is, Israelis gave them a nickname? Dont Christians drink the blood of Jesus ritualistically? But murdering babies for dietary disagreements is OK.
