About

This is the official Lemmy for the r/ReligiousCringe***** subreddit. This is a community about poking fun at the religious fundamentalist's who take their religion a little bit too far. Here you will find religious content that is so outrageous and so cringeworthy that even someone who is mildly religious will cringe.

Rules

  1. All posts must contain religious cringe. All posts must be made from a religious person or must be showcasing some kind of religious bigotry. The only exception to this is rule 2

  2. Material about religious bigots made by non-bigots is only allowed from Friday-Sunday EST. In an effort to keep this community on the topic of religious cringe and bigotry we have decide to limit stuff like atheist memes to only the weekends.

  3. No direct links to religious cringe. To prevent religious bigots from getting our clicks and views directs links to religious cringe are not allowed. If you must a post a screenshot of the site or use archive.ph. If it is a YouTube video please use a YouTube frontend like Piped or Invidious

  4. No Proselytizing. Proselytizing is defined as trying to convert someone to a particular religion or certain world view. Doing so will get you banned.

  5. Spammers and Trolls will be instantly banned. No exceptions.

Guys, not playing baseball is just as much of a sport as baseball.

[–] PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca -1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Sure.
But routinely trying to take the basketball away from the basketball players shares a lot of similarities with a sport

Esp when you're walking by the court minding your own business, and they keep throwing it at you, insisting you play for your good, put statues of Jordan in courthouses, make you swear on your favorite team in school and courts and try to pass laws to make the rest of life just like basketball.

[–] PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca -1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Right.

To say that some basketball players are belligerent about their sport doesn't mean that nobody is belligerent about not playing the sport.

So there are people on the court trying to force you to wear their jerseys and the ball at you.
And there are people who try to take the jerseys off players, puncture the ball, and protest outside courts.

I absolutely agree there are more belligerent religious people than there are belligerent atheists, what I'm saying is that belligerent people on both sides share a lot in common.

and protest outside courts.

Pretty sure those protests are inspired by basketball fans who try to shove their fandom down our throats. Please go away. You're winning no supporters.

Oh, so you're explicitly saying you were seeking an echo chamber.

Is that a whiff of belligerence I smell? Why yes, it is.

[–] Cypher@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

oh no he shredded my metaphor I better label him belligerent, shit all over the board and strut around like I won.

You absolute pigeon.

[–] PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca -1 points 3 months ago

You mean the tired sports metaphor that I've been absolutely shitting on all over this section and nobody has yet produced a single reasonable response to, because it is clearly a silly metaphor that nobody was ever meant to take as seriously as y'all are taking it?

I'm trying to have a reasonable discussion with y'all but all you can say is

bUt SpOrTs 😭😭😭

Like... I agree with his assessment.
But you are too fucking blinded by your holy conviction to even consider that they can both be true at the same time

I swear y'all are Republicans.
