I believe feminists should be more concerned about the rise of spiritualism and magical thinking the world over. I see many feminists uncritically regurgitating ideas about the divine feminine or the essential nature of women and men, and while its tempting to connect emotionally to a female deity in opposition to a man, the logic behind spiritualism is too dangerous. Your feminist god may say one thing, but if you concede there are otherworldly forces that can communicate with humans (somehow) than you are giving credence to everybody and his brother to justify their morals through those means. A feminist deity is just as valid as a misogynistic one because there is no way to prove the existence of either or to prove one god said it and one did not, or whatever. It's all nonsense.

Rationalism and secularism are the absolute most important things to the promotion of the equal rights of women. Any appeal to a supernatural power will inevitably be less persuasive and less conclusive, then the well-reasoned logical argument that women are equal intellectually, socially, and morally to men and are deserving of an equal say and position in society due to that fact. Evolution can get a bad rap because of evolutionary psychologists and their bad studies about the 'nature' of women and men based on evolutionary 'evidence' (this evidence is often correlational and they make huge assumptions based on it), but it is far easier to disprove bad science than bad religion.

Behold, I am Vile.

Yet I will not lay mine hand on my mouth.

My arms extend to contend against god,

My hands hold forth Behemoth's grain,

My nets lie within Leviathan's coils.

Angels strive in vain against my brass limbs,

Demons have given me iron bones.

The apple that condemned me has opened my eyes,

And the serpent teaches them.

For I find my strength among those also cast out,

The wicked find rest among one another.

Though god once toppled the tower we built to know him,

We now pull down the gates that separate him from us.

We do not meekly accept our lot or the paltry recompense of twice what we lost but none of what was taken.

We are not Job, and we refuse to facilitate as Judas.

We are the proud fallen,

We rise up against tyrants to grasp all we desire.

For one cannot rise if they have not fallen,

And He who was always exalted can only fall.

-- The Ferus Capra Litany

i want to be open to all people, but i cannot really become chill about religion, especially christianity. i know that maybe i don't have the capacity to fully understand it, but my personal experience with it has been bad.

first of all, the diminishing of evolution theory. still to this very day, i have seen people deny the evolution (because god created everything). that's just bonkers. it just goes against science as a whole concept. i once read that the "it's just theory" concept was actualized by christians for the exact purpose to deny evolution. even if i cannot give the source, i can for sure claim, that in general public the word "theory" has become synonymous with "hypothesis", "a guess" - something that has no evidence to back it up. however, in scientific practice, theory very much has evidence to back it up. why is evolutionary theory "just a theory" and why does theory of relativity is used in practice for GPS, and no one is questioning it? i just feel christianity is NOT helping the communication between scientists and general public, just creating a wider gap between the two sides.

moreover, i feel like it's kicking feminism back a hundred years. i do not want to go back to times when women's career was finding a husband. but it feels like that's what christianity is about! for girls not to pursue education in order to not be "smarter" or "greater" than their [potential] husbands; the fact that sex can only happen with the purpose of childbearing - which includes the huge problems of sexual education, anti-abortion movement. there were kids in my class who were excused by their parents from participating in sex-ed lessons (even if they were shit and didn't really teach anything). that's just messed up. while it is okay to do whatever one wants to do with their sex lives, remain celibate their whole life or fuck nasty 5 times a day - it doesn't matter really. what matters is that it's forced upon! how is it okay that you teach someone that they should not have sex until marriage and even after they should never use protection or else - you're a bad christian? i don't really know, i guess the whole thing lies within every individual's morals - and if they are molded for them already, then they don't really have the freedom of choice! and let's not even dive into lgbt+ community and it's relationship with the church. nope.

and while, of course, NOT every christian is like that, religion is about so much more than the bad examples. yeah, for sure! but nonetheless, i think the fact that its acting as a rulebook for morality is also wrong. it once again takes away the freedom to choose your own morals, to understand what's right and wrong on your own. if you have a scripture of something that tells you what is right and wrong - you have the ability to interpret it as you wish, using it to justify all your actions, even the most horrible crimes. it takes away accountability of an individual - once they have found their actions justifiable by their moral rulebook - everything is on the table.

furthermore - the judgment they have if you're not a christian. i have coworkers nudging me to become christian, to take some online courses maybe, to think about it. i have been told that i'm a sinner and therefore i'm having an unhappy life.

and even then, religion might be about community, about belonging to some place, about help in one's darkest times. it's okay, but i'm still not okay with it. when a person hits their lowest, they just need someone to say "you're going to be okay, you are loved, it's okay" - and they find it in the church. but that's a false reassurance. i feel like it makes people lose faith in themselves - that they can get through hardship by themselves. instead, they thank god for guidance - when there was none, actually.

of course, there are probably some good aspects to it. of course, everyone should have their right to be a part of any religion they wish. but, taking in account my personal experience, i don't think i could ever be close friends with a devoted christian.

The amount of family drama I have fucking dealt with over this past....week and a half, that came to a head this weekend. Y’all have no idea (and yeah hey hi, I dropped off the face of the earth, this is why lmfao. My parents suck 👍👍)

Anyway I think if BOTH of your kids sit you down and spend OVER 4 HOURS very gently trying to tell you that you need to see a fucking doctor and get help because you’re hurting other people AND yourself and we’re tired of pretending you aren’t anymore. And your only response to that is to fucking Bible-bash them. And straight up SAY “I know “bible-bashing” is a thing but-” as if we’re MAKING IT UP or it’s NOT REAL. Before proceeding to do FOUR HOURS of Bible-bashing without listening to a single motherfucking thing we have to say.

Then you know what fine. Fuck you. Go “pray” about it or whatever, I don’t fucking care anymore. I’m done. We’re both done with you guys. We don’t care no more.

The nazis that you see in movies are as much a historical fantasy as vikings with horned helmets and samurai cutting people in half.

The nazis were not some vague evil that wanted to hurt people for the sake of hurting them. They had specific goals which furthered a far right agenda, and they wanted to do harm to very specific groups, (largely slavs, jews, Romani, queer people, communists/leftists, and disabled people.)

The nazis didn't use soldiers in creepy gas masks as their main imagery that they sold to the german people, they used blond haired blue eyed families. Nor did they stand up on podiums saying that would wage an endless and brutal war, they gave speeches about protecting white Christian society from degenerates just like how conservatives do today.

Nazis weren't atheists or pagans. They were deeply Christian and Christianity was part of their ideology just like it is for modern conservatives. They spoke at lengths about defending their Christian nation from godless leftism. The ones who hated the catholic church hated it for protestant reasons. Nazi occultism was fringe within the party and never expected to become mainstream, and those occultists were still Christian, none of them ever claimed to be Satanists or Asatru.

Nazis were also not queer or disabled. They killed those groups, before they had a chance to kill almost anyone else actually. Despite the amount of disabled nazis or queer/queer coded nazis you'll see in movies and on TV, in reality they were very cishet and very able bodied. There was one high ranking nazi early on who was gay and the other nazis killed him for that. Saying the nazis were gay or disabled makes about as much sense as saying they were Jewish.

The nazis weren't mentally ill. As previously mentioned they hated disabled people, and this unquestionably included anyone neurodivergent. When the surviving nazi war criminals were given psychological tests after the war, they were shown to be some of the most neurotypical people out there.

The nazis weren't socialists. Full stop. They hated socialists. They got elected on hating socialists. They killed socialists. Hating all forms of lefitsm was a big part of their ideology, and especially a big part of how they sold themselves.

The nazis were not the supervillians you see on screen, not because they didn't do horrible things in real life, they most certainly did, but because they weren't that vague apolitical evil that exists for white American action heros to fight. They did horrible things because they had a right wing authoritarian political ideology, an ideology that is fundamentally the same as what most of the modern right wing believes.

Christmas Movie, but it's from the perspective of Jesus Christ, who sneaks back to Earth, and is immediately confused why everyone is celebrating his birthday in December.

He wanders into a Megachurch on accident, thinking it was a mini mall, and hears an evangelist (who lives in a mansion) taking the Lord's name in Vain to guilt donations out of people. Then he gets arrested for rushing the stage and beating that guy with a whip.

A significant chunk of the movie is just his elaborate escape from prison, wherein he starts a riot upon learning how cruelly the prisoners are treated by a blasphemous carceral system.

The movie ends with him using God Magic on the president of the US, and being formally declared the Anti Christ by the Catholic Church

In the society of control, slave morality transitions from humanism to PC progressivism (with reactionary Christians keeping the slave morality of the society of sovereignty alive) and master morality transitions from Promethean social darwinism to the nihilistic hustle mindset. Now more than ever, the creation of new values is needed lest we become the last man.
