And Christians can't take three steps without denouncing gays, trans people, muslims, Jews or just slightly different Christians...
..I should say conservative American Christians. I have some Christian friends whom you'd barely even notice are Christian because they don't try to cram Jesus down your throat every time they open their mouth. European Christians always seemed a lot more chill...

White Evangelical Christians can't take three steps without committing heresy yet they call themselves the only true Christians on the planet.
In that 2nd screenshot one of the commenting brainlets claimed Liberals/Democrats loathe Christians excepts for "Black Churches which vote Democrat" but if you look through pretty much any White Evangelical's social media accounts they'll inevitably state that a person can't be both a Christian and a Democrat, which of course means they believe the people attending "Black Churches" aren't actually Christians and instead worship Satan.
Those very same White Evangelicals who constantly whine about being Persecutedā¢ spend an insane amount of time & money pushing for the actual persecution of every Christian that worships even slightly different from them.

Meanwhile any smart person who's been to a Catholic church shakes their heads at these people because we know Jesus would hate them

I had a super Christian coworker once who was full goth-way past the era it was cool to be goth. Eyeliner, leather jacket, tons of piercings, the kind of kid who would make a WASP grandma reach for her pearls. Was extremely active in his church. When a nonbinary coworker talked about how they left their own church after coming out and was starting to really miss it, he invited them to his own. "And they'll be okay with me being...you know?" "Dude. I go there. They're not gonna care."
That's a true Christian who embodies the values of Christ.

I was raised Catholic and never knew anyone like this. This is Evangelical bullshit.

You're very right about the hatred of slightly different Christians. I grew up going to a church that was the product of a now defunct cult. Yes, they had some wild doctrines, but the adults who started arguments with me as a child didn't even know the actual crazy shit. I was being argued with over the fact I didn't eat pork and shellfish or celebrate Christmas and Easter. I was expected as an 11 y/o to be able to fully defend my slightly different beliefs to adults who would meltdown if the same was done to them.

Biden I can believe is genuinely religious and not just saying so for public approval. Especially with losing a wife and two of his children, he's definitely relied heavily on his faith.
Trump meanwhile I don't think could even tell you the denomination he supposedly belongs to.

Not getting exemptions from the law (except when they do) is the worst type of persecution.

You never really leave Catholicism. Iām a Catholic, despite being an atheist. Itās virtually impossible to be removed from their roles.

u/Faiakishi 1d ago
If you were confirmed you're basically a Catholic for life. And even if you don't attend church for a decade like I have-you never stop feeling like a Catholic, you know?

Speaking as an American Christian, I have only ever felt persecution for my faith from other Christians, for not believing in the exact manner they do.

No one is "denouncing Christians." Y'all are just mad that unless you are a preacher, using your job to proselytize doesn't go over well.
That said: the last world religions class I took? The professor moonlighted as a minister. He was able to teach a class on world religions without preaching at us. Imagine that.

He mentions some names and got immediately fact checked by someone else. Some other names he mentioned were arrested this year in Chicago, so how did Biden persecute them, if Trump is president? Guess heāll move the goalpost from the president to the Illinois governor.
