That’s worse! You realize that’s worse?!?
Narrator: “They didn’t.”
You don’t “blame” the holy spirit. That means she’s saying one of the incarnations of God wanted her to do it. That’s like saying God is a Nazi.
well he DID kill a large amount of Jews?
This but unironically. God is pretty much a supernatural fascist tyrant

Piss off
Do you say Luks is Darth Vaders son or Luke would be Darth Vaders son?
Depends how much the person I’m talking to insists that the character is real
I always love how Christians regularly freak out about the idea that “blasphemy of the Holy Spirit” is canonically the only unforgivable thing they can do, but then rationalize it as some amorphous thing that’s just not believing enough such that they go on to claim the Holy Spirit does all sorts of shit.
“The Holy Spirit supervised the creation of the Bible so it’s inerrant (even though the majority of scholars think things like 1 Timothy are unquestionably forgeries).”
“The Holy Spirit moved me to post Nazi memes - I was an unwilling vessel.”
If that shit really is unforgivable I’d imagine the vast majority of Christians are in for a surprise down the road…
I Hate
IllinoisAlberta NazisI feel ya, I’m more and more disappointed with my province every day… 😪
I don’t thinks there’s any need to qualify that word.
(it’s a reference to the Blues Brothers.)
Oh…
The other holy trinity: the father, the son, and Adolf Hitler
Who had “The Holy Spirit Defense” on their descent into fascism bingo card?
“When Fascism comes to America*, it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross.”
* or Canada, apparently.
Quality joke
it’s Alberta. Both the Texas and Florida of Canada.
I thought Saskatchewan was the Florida of Canada… Then there’s the Territories, but they’re a class all in their own.
Hmm… Christian theologians have spent centuries debating whether the components of the Trinity have the same essence, substance, nature, personality, etc.—but have they considered whether they share the same ideology? What if Jesus is a socialist but the Holy Ghost is a fascist?
What if Jesus is a socialist
Everything in the bible about Jesus makes him sound like a socialist…
But that doesn’t keep church leaders in funny hats and gold. So the stories changed over the last couple thousand years
To be fair, it’s mainly the Catholic church that has the “funny hats and gold” thing going on. Protestants are all about the expensive suits and private jets.
Don’t want to be stuck with demons in a metal tube…
If anyone on this planet is a demon in a human suit, it is 100% that creepy asshole.

Francis has been okay, as Popes go. I’m not sure I would say anything so generous about the rest of the RCC.
But damn, those funny hats are expensive!
So the takeaway here is that Conservative Christian God is a fucking Nazi.
The meme was comparing the LGBT+ community to Nazis, not promoting Nazi ideology
Isn’t that fascism 101 though?
Tony Morrison’s first three of ten steps to fascism
1.Construct an internal enemy, as both focus and diversion.
2.Isolate and demonize that enemy by unleashing and protecting the utterance of overt and coded name-calling and verbal abuse. Employ ad hominem attacks as legitimate charges against that enemy.
3.Enlist and create sources and distributors of information who are willing to reinforce the demonizing process because it is profitable, because it grants power and because it works.
Monique has decided to play the victim card, wailing about “cancel culture.”
Again facing repercussions for your actions is not “cancel culture”.

So apparently she, member of the board of Red Deer Catholic Regional Schools in Alberta, Canada, posted a meme comparing pride activism to nazi activism, like they’re “both brainwashing”. The board stripped her of her committee duties and she’s now lawyered up in response to sue other Christians about it with the claim that she’s the real victim here, that this infringes on her right to express her faith like every other normal Christian.
Oh honey, when you use your faith as a shield for your politics and your politics equivocate oppressors with those you want to see oppressed, you’ve just told the world that God is, in your image, a fascist. 🍿 🤡
Of course it was red deer XD, I grew up in that shit hole and honestly this isn’t even that surprising for the crackpot stuff that went on there. I’m surprised she got punished.
Well, if they are claiming God made them do it. Maybe we should look to the bible for their punishment.
Only in Americ… wait, what? Canadians are supposed to be better than this. :shocked picachu:
Canadians are just as fucked as the rest of us. Just look at how they treated (and STILL treat) indigenous peoples.
You haven’t met that many Albertans. This is them.
There’s no point in arguing with these people. Faith and superstition is much more flexible than logic. They will always believe they’re right. The absolute best we can hope for is empty lip service that does a passable job of imitating rationality.
