Pro-birth, not pro-life
aka reproductive slavery. Crying white men having ownership over women’s bodily autonomy and life cycles.
I recently saw a Christian organization who rescued over 300 enslaved children. While this post is still valid and needs attention we need to stop pretending that it’s being ignored and actually help those people who are rescuing fugitives, refugees and slaves instead of just bashing an ideology online
Real talk.
I hate Christo-fascists as much as the next guy, but to think that ALL people of Christian faith are evil and tyrannical is a nonstarter unto itself.
I appreciate the glimmer of good faith arguments in this bad faith argument riddled thread.
Eh, my advice is to not hate them. Hate (albeit disguised as righteousness) is their brand… We should pity them, you know, like Jesus might.
Nothing defeats fake religious people like the positive teachings of their own professed religion. Fight cruelty with kindness.
The good eggs, that is to say the Christian/Catholic folks that actually follow the teachings of Jesus, will not mind you denigrating those of their “flock” that do not. Most of them will actually tend to apologize for them, and explain they are lost. These types also almost never try to judge you if you’re not a believer.
It’s a matter of percentages
One consistent organization does not disprove the rule that religious people are massive hypocrites in general
You’re not wrong, but you seem to be suggesting that people are taking this low effort meme as a fact. It’s a generalization that holds very true for the masses, not an infallible statement without the possibility of exception.
I don’t know any religious folks that do what your referring to… Not a one. Sure, I believe there are millions of them that do, but the majority (let’s say, over 60-80 million?) don’t seem to.
Nobody needs to seek out and help children in need to be a good person, there are a LOT of issues in the world that need attention… But these types are fighting a war against women in the name of helping children, and the vast majority of them are doing nothing to actually help children. In fact, they tend to be creating massive problems for children as a whole (I’m not sure many will appreciate their mothers being 13 at birth, or their fathers being rapists, or being given up for adoption because they were 100% unwanted.)
We need to be better about keeping up with the goalposts. It’s not about religion anymore, it’s about murder now.
The argument used to be religious and defining when life begins, but that was a weak argument and “easily” solved by scientific inquiry, so now the argument is black and white: “you either murder a baby, or give birth.” There is no middle ground anymore, there is no argument to be had, it’s simply “you’re murdering babies.”
They can take this meme and say “well maybe I don’t want the migrant here draining our resources, but I’m not murdering them! We deport them to someone who will help! You Democrats are the evil ones! You love to murder babies!”
It’s insanely frustrating, and the whole issue is only being pushed by propagandists to bolster Republican voter numbers, but we should contend with the actual argument and not an old one that they don’t use as often.
These concerns are very real to many religious folks, but they are 100% derivituve of political propaganda. These types have no idea of the lengths they’ve been manipulated by their political party.
Maybe my brain is fried from all the Baldurs I’ve been gating recently, but I don’t understand what this is trying to say. I get it’s criticizing pro lifers, but don’t see the connection between the top text and the bottom text, or what the bottom text is insinuating.
Christian here. Are you trying to say I don’t care about kids?
The meme merely showcases that most religious, conservative voters care more about the virtue signaling of fighting abortion than actually caring for children.
The entire topic was created by conservatives decades ago to generate division, and rally their voters. I recommend everyone look up how much people cared about this back in the 60’s.
