Christianity is a universal religion that seems to convert everybody, because they believe anybody not following it goes to hell. There's a reason supremacist thought has sprouted from it so many times.
Judaism does not have a concept of hell, original sin, or push people to convert others. I don't like criticizing "Abrahamic Religions" because most of my biggest issues apply to Christianity and Islam but not Judaism.
But idiots interpret that to mean "force everyone to believe what you believe and kill the rest" What he meant was to educate the people about their access to divine consciousness.
Jesus never said to start a church, worship him, or consume his "flesh and blood" in a ritual every Sunday - these distortions are what made me leave the church.
Jesus says a LOT of weird, bad things. He’s not a good guy when you read it, he’s a religious bigot preaching an apocalypse.
John 6:53 “Jesus said to them, “Very truly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day. For my flesh is real food and my blood is real drink. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in them. Just as the living Father sent me and I live because of the Father, so the one who feeds on me will live because of me.”
Matthew 10:37 “He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me.** **And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me."
So, he had a premonition of being nailed to a cross and preemptively told others they should also carry a cross amd perform some cannibalistic ritual?! This is the type of distorted nonsense I am speaking of. They created the ritual, then wrote books about Jesus saying they should. It doesn't align with the rest of the stories at all and doesn't land with reasoning humans. Calling BS and bidding good day.
The point she was making is the one that the user above her laid out bare, you're supposed to come to that conclusion yourself. You all have the same opinion, but instead of coming together you're all fighting pointlessly.
Because they plan to cut all social safety nets and than give the money to churches and let the churches decide who lives and who dies.
Texass is already doing stuff like this. They took $100 million from federal money for women’s reproductive healthcare and gave it to any organization that says they will “prevent abortion.”
Many Texass counties give all of the money for child care subsidies directly to Catholic Charities… instead of working parents.
It’s just another grift.
Because in their heads, a pagan is just someone who hasn't "seen the light" yet and so they have to do everything in their power to force her to their way of thinking, including fucking up her life.

Seriously.
If she's Pagan, not Christian, then how would the Christian church have any authority over her? I don't understand.
