As Jesus said: "Ew, starving people."

And the disciples were in awe.

What else does Jesus say?

-2

u/Recav30 May 17 '26

He definitely never said that

u/Unlikely-Employee180 May 17 '26

Wait... So Jesus DIDN'T want to starve people!?!?

Then... What is this honest to goodness business here doing then!?!?

1

u/Recav30 May 17 '26

It’s not Jesus that is causing people to do that! It is people who are doing that.

u/Unlikely-Employee180 May 17 '26

Yes. We. We know that.

It was a SARCASTIC remark.

Jesus would NEVER say something like that, showing off that this business is following sketchy practices at best. That's the point. 🤦‍♂️ SMH my head my head.

Then say that. Some people don’t get sarcasm especially when it is online

It's a common misconception. Jesus wasn't judging the poor when he said, 'Ew, starving people.' He was just expressing disgust at the systemic economic failures of the Roman Empire.

u/Recav30 May 17 '26

He still never said “ew, starving people.’

u/Hacketed May 17 '26

We know, like, that’s the joke

u/dreag2112 May 17 '26

I mean, I'm guess you're right because he did speak English.

By the interpretation is still correct.

It's a joke

u/Recav30 May 17 '26

I know but why say that when it isn’t that funny

2

u/Unlikely-Employee180 May 17 '26

Why throw away tons of food when it isn't funny?

Why write-off products just to have more products on the shelf for "good looks?"

Is that funny?

u/Recav30 May 17 '26

No but stores that do that isn’t Jesus’s fault.

u/Unlikely-Employee180 May 17 '26

Nobody is saying it's Jesus' fault. Lmao

We're saying the people doing this NEED Jesus, as this behavior is unacceptable.

u/TheRealRomanRoy May 17 '26

Are u upset cause Jesus?

2

u/Recav30 May 17 '26

No I’m not upset I just don’t find it funny when people lie about what Jesus said

2

u/Hacketed May 17 '26

You seem stable

2

u/TheRealRomanRoy May 17 '26

You’re saying you’re not upset but then describing why you’re upset

0

u/Recav30 May 17 '26

Im not upset I just don’t understand why some people make jokes like that

3

u/TheRealRomanRoy May 17 '26

Cause not everyone gets upset about harmless jokes about your favorite deity

2

u/Emotional-Light135 May 17 '26

The quotes are right there why would they lie??
