...I'm sorry, I wasn't going to say anything, but this post is so fucking silly, I just can't

"Religion was man-made!" ....as opposed to what? Alien-made? Dolphin-made? Zebra-made? Who else is out here on this planet making religions other than humans?

It's like "your mental illness is all in your head!" like? Yeah? Where else would it be, my ass??

"Game over!" ....gurl what 🤣🤣

Game over

#yeah #like all other organized institutions #and your point is...?#also some of y'all need some history in your lives #fr #humans have been making religions since we started wondering how the blinky lights got up there in the sky #it's embarrassingly late in the game to be getting mad about it #it's funny how everyone's an expert on the included-for-reference bits of the bible #when they're getting all riled up #when “shut up and sit down” is literally in Matthew #and all it would take to shoot down all the protestant nonsense #do not stand on the streetcorners and pray aloud like the hypocrites do #that they may be seen by men #but rather go inside and pray in secret #and your Father who sees in secret shall reward you openly #(I'm paraphrasing but it's 2am and my brain can't generate King James Old Englishe at this hour)#(sue me)#a much more direct counterpoint to the obnoxious behavior everyone loves to cite #but no #y'all always go for judges and leviticus #martin #love ya #but “sola scriptura” was a BAD FUCKING IDEA #it VERY quickly devolved into “sola my specific pastor's favorite scriptura”#also everyone who gets bent out of shape over the epistles needs to google pauline pseudonymity #and everyone on here claiming xtianity is uniformly bad for women needs to retrieve their collective head from their collective ass #in gnostic xtianity (to which i ascribe) ste.mary magdalene is acknowledged as Yeshua's wife #and has her own gospel #and the gospel of philip is all about sacred union to a degree that the RCC and def any protestants would find scandalous #like wow it's almost like religion IS man-made and thus no religion is a monolith
