Another 20% at least halfway agrees with them. It's actually kind of scary that all the chill Christians seem to getting more shadowed by the toxic evangelical movements, which unfortunately seem to be the ones spreading most abroad. Their unholy alliance with the RWM has been a great boon for filling their ranks and purses. Assholes like Crowder, true believer or not, cash in on this kind of pandering all the time.

The mainline numbers dropped earlier and more sharply — from 24 percent of the population in 1988 to 14 percent in 2012, at which time their numbers generally stabilized. ironically given the racial attitudes white evangelicals largely share the only thing slowing the overall evangelical decline is increased hispanic membership The Muppets On PCP fucked around with this message at 14:52 on Jul 4, 2017 |

I grew up Southern Baptist and then proceeded to leave it in college and never look back specifically because of how conservative it's gotten. I'm still a fan of the core theology, but the problem is I'm in favor of things like giving equal rights and rites to women and gay people. I'm not the only one of my generation in the church I grew up in who left for similar reasons, either.

WampaLord posted:Read any Old Testament lately? I still remember learning a few years ago that the New Testament was created to say that you can totally ignore everything in the Old Testament, and having my mind blown that this was an actual thing. Speaking of right-wing Christians, I recently saw a movie called The Case For Christ (though, I assure you, it wasn't by choice). It's based on a book by this douchebag named Lee Strobel, who I never heard of until then. The basic plot of this movie is that Strobel's wife wants to convert to Christianity, and Lee, who is an atheist, is 100% opposed to the idea, and thinks the only way to save her is by interviewing several random people to argue that the resurrection never happened, and thus without that, the entire religion falls apart. The problem though, is that pretty much every person he interviews makes him doubt his own atheist beliefs more and more, and by the end of the movie, he comes to the realization that the Christians got this one right. Shockingly enough, I have to say the movie wasn't that bad. Well, at least not as bad as something you'd expect to come out of a company like Pureflix (the guys behind such legendary films like God is Not Dead and I Am Not Ashamed). I mean, there's a lot of dumb stuff here for sure. For example, Strobel sees a Catholic Priest who tells him that The Bible has to be an accurate and truthful source because there were more copies of that printed than any other book in history. In another scene, Strobel meets up with an psychologist who is supposed to be "agnostic", but seems to think that Strobel's atheism is the result of having a lovely relationship with his dad (implying that if he had a good relationship, he'd be a wonderful, god-fearin' Christian). And probably my favorite part, when Strobel gets so upset at his wife's conversion that he drinks himself into a rage-filled state of depression and yells "YOU'VE BEEN CHEATING ON ME! WITH JESUS!". But aside from the aforementioned stuff and some other instances of facile reasoning, and unintentional comedy, there's nothing really revolting or offensive about this movie. Nobody dies for not submitting to the will of Jesus Christ, there's no implication that atheists, muslims, or Jews are evil. There's no moral about why gay marriage or abortion is bad. I'd never want to watch it again, but if I had to, I could actually tolerate it, which is much more than I can say for any Pureflix flick I've seen up until now. No, the most offensive thing I saw wasn't even in the film itself. It was actually in a bonus feature where they did a group interview with the lead cast and the key people involved in production. The interviewer asked the producer what final words he has for the people who would want to watch the film, and this scumbag basically said something along the lines of "Well, I implore every single person of faith to watch this movie, even if they're struggling for money, because it's such an important film and is basically your duty as a good Christian to do so". I'm paraphrasing, but that's essentially what he said. He straight up said that even if you're strapped for cash, you should find a way to come up with it to see his lovely film. That really didn't sit right with me. It's fine to sell your movie, I get that. But I don't think I've ever heard anyone try to convince people like this, especially saying that it's a goddamned obligation? Really? gently caress off.

It really is a shame and hilarious how right-wing Christians and conservatives essentially ignore everything Jesus said and taught; such the bits about selflessly helping the poor, controlling greed (capitalism), loving your enemy, etc. The Bible -- especially the New Testament -- was so revolutionary for its time. Most people, especially the younger generation, have a bad taste in their mouths about the Gospels thanks to sanctimonious and deceptive shitheads such as Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Fox News, and so on.

Mr Interweb posted:I still remember learning a few years ago that the New Testament was created to say that you can totally ignore everything in the Old Testament. Depending on which book of it you read, the Old Testament either is not binding at all, is partially binding, is mostly binding but sometimes there's new rules to follow instead, or you should basically be a fully compliant Jew of the current time (meaning early first century) and also obey Christian teachings on top. This was never harmonized out, largely because there wasn't the sort of time and gaps in continuity that would be required to fully removed whichever interpretations were disfavored. You can see remnants of attempts to do that in various old copies of the New Testament though.

I saw a video on YT where George Galloway talked to callers on some radio show and one lady called in to try and argue about the "render unto Caesar" thing because George was, IIRC, talking about the politics of the New Testament. The caller wanted to say Jesus just had spiritual messages, not political ones. George countered with "what about his doctrine towards the poor? What about turning over the money changers in the Temple? These aren't political opinions?" Concluded with saying Jesus was a socialist, which seems right so far as I know.

There are plenty of great movies with Christian themes, but the fact that they were all made by lapsed Christians from Europe about a half-century ago means that the type of people who watch Pureflix films are never going to see them.

Bart Ehrman is a good author to read on this topic, particularly Lost Christianities. Very different interpretations of what being a Christian meant to the early faithful were all over the place, and there's a lot we don't know because the only writings that survived were the ones from the precursors of the sects that "won" at the various councils.

It's always incredible to see Scott Adams show just how ignorant he is of the Korean situation, he comes up with the stupidest plans that would never work in reality and acts like he's the world's greatest genius for coming up with them.Dilbertman posted:I have some spare time this morning so I thought I would solve the North Korean nuclear threat problem.

Especially given the long human history of god-emperors turning out to be little more than figureheads for the bureaucracy. It is kind of important, because it is often the case that people will fight to the death for a cult of personality, but not for a faceless bureaucrat.
