When your God can be killed by us silly goobers, maybe he wasn’t so powerful in the first place.
The tags above the headline are even funnier.
Ironically the only thing killing religion is demonic priests who want to use religion as a platform to hurt innocent people they don’t like.
Who would win?
the omnipotent, omniscient Creator of the Universe,
or
A boy who’s actually a girl
Created by… the same god.
So he can create something to defeat himself? So not omnipotent?
Can god microwave a burrito so hot that he himself cannot eat it?
Dunno, but I definitely can.
Have you heard of the problem of evil in relation to the phony baloney god?
It’s their one weak spot.
Well, done, trans community! Keep it up!
Right?! Thanks again Trans friends!
Omnipotent omniscient omnipotent beings are allergic to pink, blue, and white
Everyone knows this
I will accept my new title of Godslayer.
thank you for your service
This is exactly the kind of rhetoric that turns progressive people away from churches. Are progressives ‘killing god’, or is it actually the churches themselves who are deliberately turning people away?
AFAIK hating on trans people isn’t even in the bible, so this is 100% on the current personnel of the churches being even worse than they absolutely have to. Even if you believe that the bible is truly the “word of God”, this is just something you made up yourself.
Unfortunately there is some line in Leviticus about it being illegal for a ‘man to wear the clothing of a woman, or a woman to wear the tools of a man’, and another one about not cutting yourself. But for a god who commands infant genital mutilation, it’s certainly hypocritical.
Easy fix: “trans women are women, trans men are men”. You could just as easily argue that the man who wears the clothing of a woman is the closeted trans man.
another one about not cutting yourself
The catholic church certainly doesn’t care about that when it comes to modern medicine.
Oh, I am certainly supportive of trans people being the gender they say they are. I don’t think the people who wrote the Bible thought of it that way though, it was probably their intent that the (flawed) concept of binary biological sex was what they were referring to.
And it’s important to acknowledge that and reject the Bible as a source of moral truth, rather than seeking to ‘reinterpret’ it, to make it ‘acceptable’ while not having to outright reject it.
While I agree that Christianity is flawed from the get-go and that you’re probably right about what the bible authors would think about trans people, I still can’t keep myself from pointing out the glaring holes in church doctrine. The people who wrote the bible, especially the old testament, would probably stone someone to death if they explained current Christianity to them.
Arguably, pointing out the raging bigotry of “this isn’t explicitly in the bible, I just made it up myself” and “this IS in the bible, but I chose to ignore it” would make people aware of how absurd Christianity is and reconsider their beliefs, but in reality that’s probably not at all how belief works.
This is a great point. It would be easy enough to argue that the verse speaks against closeted folks dressing against their honest inner identity.
But I don’t think logic or a sincere attempt to unstand the will of a benevolent higher power were ever involved, sadly.
I feel like if they were really seeking the will of an all loving God, they could have come to that conclusion already. :(
So… no femboys. Damn, I have some friends to chastise.
Id hope the fact that none of it is true also turns people away from churches.
For the unaware, modern Catholicism had been outreaching trans folks into their cult, so much so Pope Francis blurted out an in-group lavender slur. Pope Leo XIV’s focus isn’t LGBTQIA+, but dominance.
Cardinal Robert Sarah is just trying to parrot the same fascistic dominance Pope Leo XIV urged for, but for Washington DC.
I hope I do not need to remind folks here how this digressive victimhood cult operates.
That’s why you should vote for me next papal election. I will make the church about mana gathering and rituals to kill evil politicians. Jesus will be recognised as a true socialist and the billionares will be sacrificed for the good of humanity.
Oh and also we will make the best cookies every christmas and the best ham each easter.
I’m sold, you have my vote in the conclave
There is the small problem that I’m not a cardinal, or a Catholic, or a Christian but I think if we get enough other people on board we can take the Swiss Guard and then those things become traditionally optional
We’ll have a wizard coup d’etat
Freshly smoked ham?
Non smoked. Cured then cooked. You can ymoke yours though
dammit i need to turn my weber smokey mountain into a cold smorker and then make bacon
Thanks for sharing, that article about the pope dropping an f-slur is wild. Imagine reading that and thinking, “Yup that’s my guy, that’s my spiritual leader.”
But god is already dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him.
Though ‘we’ seems to be germans as the quote is by german philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche and even before Nietzsche, the earliest accounts of ‘death of god’ discussions seem to originate in german lutheran culture of the 17th century.
So since god is dead and transgender rights are some modern stuff, trans rights cannot have caused the death of god.
Transgender scientist Friedrich Nietzsche invented a time machine and went back to 19th century to kill god. And I love it for him.
Good for her
Damn, didn’t know that my ancestors were so powerful. Good for them.
Maybe God is so weak even the mere existence of what is now the modern gender thought is enough to kill him centuries ahead of time.
bigots always make trans people seem as badass as possible meanwhile i’m over here on saturday night with a cat on my lap crocheting.
The enemy must be both strong and weak.
i’m over here on saturday night with a cat on my lap crocheting and culling weak gods, apparently.
I took the liberty of updating that for you.
Either way, keep rocking.
If god was real and being trans killed him id vagina my penis tomorrow, not out of any real desire to become a woman, but more because of the utter contempt I have for religion.
Hail Satan.
Satan is actually quite chill, if South Park is to be believed.
He also basically did nothing wrong in the Bible, either. All the genocide and murder was done by god alone.
*Hail Seitan
Well that certainly exists. That’s for sure.
They didn’t have to sell trans rights to me as I was already on board, but OK.
The machine god cares not of gender only how many Dreadnaught rated artillery cannons are plugged into your brain stem.
Mekhane says trans rights
Transgender rights have apparently such reality-bending power that they could kill that which was never real.
The news reported that soon they will all be able to bend space time to their will to inhabit all bathrooms, so I imagine killing a fictional god is within reach.
I was jealous enough of the double jumping but now. I would consider trans life if I got to personally kill and eat a god.
