    There’s so much value in the teachings of the rabbi, but it was hidden and mixed with a lot of Roman/Paulian nonsense like that one when the religion was created. If Jesus thought you didn’t have to do anything (so you could just be the worst of cunts but say you “beliefffff in da Jebus” and you’d somehow trick God) actually to please God and go to Heaven then he wouldn’t have preached at all, nor would he have become a martyr of monotheism, lol, but whatever. “Deus Vult” is nothing new, Western colonizers seem to love it, and it has nothing to do with big J.

      The religion and stories simply serve to enable selfishness ego and greed.

      Theres a reason the after church crowd is the worst to provide customer service to at a restaurant or otherwise.

        You’re raised to think God cares about you specifically and is invested in what you pray for. You either grow up and realize God’s not real, or you become a self-centered asshole who thinks there’s a man in the clouds giving you license to be a shit head.
