Joe Biden, the Catholic Church, Christian organisations and US Congress when they clearly give the IDF co-ordinates to avoid Christians and nuns and the IDF use the info to bomb and snipe them anyway:
Gee, guys. Guess they weren’t only after Muslims.
That’s what a genocide actually is. Everyone is collateral damage. Doesn’t matter what God you believe in.

Every so often, a bunch of Catholics who want to be even more bigoted will reinvent Protestantism from first principles

I cannot stand people who depict Satan and God as rivals or Yin Yang.
God does not need Satan. He never did. Satan needs God.
Think of it this way. God is all that’s good and he is love.
Satan is all that’s evil and he is hate. He is vengeance. He is jealousy. He is wrathful.
Why would love and goodness need those things? God does not need Satan. He created Lucifer, and he was God’s most beautiful angel. But Satan wanted more. He did not feel God’s love was enough, which is impossible because God is the embodiment of love.
Satan needs God because that’s who he fights against.
God created the world without Satan, but Satan was the one who destroyed it.
Creation doesn’t need destruction, but destruction needs creation.

John Everett Millais (1829-1896)
"Mercy: St Bartholomew’s Day, 1572" (1886)
Oil on canvas
Pre-Raphaelite
Located in the Tate Gallery, London, England
The painting portrays an imaginary incident at the time of the St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre in Paris on 24 August 1572, when thousands of Protestants were slaughtered by Catholics.
A Nun begs for '"Mercy"' on behalf of the hapless Protestants, but the man pulls her arm away and moves to follow the call to arms indicated by the Friar who beckons from the open doorway.
