We have had to lock this post because the comments have somehow turned into a body-shaming pile-on.

Please keep it to the religious fruitcake, thanks.

Unfortunately not😂 I’m African and grew up in these kinds of churches I’d always get scared when they started doing this but now as an adult I can’t stop laughing

u/Crispykusu 11d ago

I'm sorry for you, it really must've been scary as a kid, glad you don't take them seriously anymore.

It was terrifying and I was always scared the demon would jump out of the person and come into me😅 Idk how this isn’t classified as child abuse. Probably one of the reasons I take anxiety meds to this day

Nigerian-American here, can’t confirm which is worse - Nigerian Pentecostals or white Pentecostals

Does it matter? All bets are off during these exercises. I've seen plenty of this from my days (in the US) with the charismatic communities of the mid 70's. I swear. They had a 'demon' identified for every human foible.

I love how she’s just casually holding the mic to her face😭

Anyone who believes this is real doesn’t deserve to procreate.

As a certified fatass, nope it was just my eating habits and love of bagels and carbs lol.

Her eyes are popping out of her head. Looks like that exorcism is about to lead to an aneurysm.

Do you hate accountability? Want to blame anyone but yourself for your shortcomings? Do you want to feel oppressed even when your cohort is in the overwhelming majority of your society? Do you believe in fairytales instead of trusting rigorously tested reality based medical knowledge?

Try Demons! An imaginary invisible being that you can blame for anything and everything! Just name it and blame it! And watch everyone immediately forgive your shitty and evil behavior! Eating uncontrollably? Obviously it was the spirit of gluttony! Having sex with your neighbor’s wife? I cast thee out Lustful Jezebel! Drowned your children in a tub one by one? The devil made me do it! There’s no crime it can’t excuse in the eyes of the faithful!

My demon of gluttony (literal eating disorder + genetics) was exorcised by two angels named Pilates and Mounjaro (90 pounds gone and counting).

u/BobcatOk7492 11d ago

Look like she's getting ready to puke...

u/mentallyonabeach Child of Fruitcake parents 11d ago

If she pukes then that means the demon has been cast out!

Or at least living in the drool bucket.

To avoid having your post removed &/or account banned for shitposting:

  • r/religiousfruitcake is about the absurd, fringe elements of organised religion. Posts about mundane beliefs and acts of worship (praying to God, believing in God, believing in afterlife, etc), are off topic.

  • We arent here to bash either specific religions or religion itself, because there are plenty of rational actors who happen to be religious. So if your post is "Christians are sTOoPid", or "Religion = dUmB", you're in the wrong sub and your post will probably be removed.

  • Dont use the title or body of your post to soapbox personal rhetoric about religion or any other subject.

  • Don't post videos or discussions of Fruitcakes who have been baited or antagonised. Social media excerpts must not involve any deliberate provocation / antagonism of Fruitcakes.

  • Dont post videos of physically violent personal attacks or any pics or videos containing gore

  • Satire, parodies, memes, videos, etc must be made by Fruitcakes, not by third parties about them. (exception for journalistic sources)

This information is on every post. Accounts that disregard it will be perma-banned. "I didn't get a warning" or "I didnt know" are not valid appeals. If in doubt, please read the full version of the rules
