Religion or LGBT is a false dichotomy and shit like this just fuels division.

Fuck you Disney

Priesthood was a religious answer for gay men historically, before more modern sects that are openly accepting. The modern non-denominational Christian churches are just cancer.

Yup. Disney doesn't stand for anything. They just pander to wherever they think the money is.

Really hope Jesus makes his comeback via an appearance on RuPaul. The bible does say it will be unexpected.

The stories in the bible happened long ago. There arent any prophecies reaching into our age.

(Actual inquiry, I don't know): Really? There is no rupture or some sort of apocalyse in the new testament?

Nah, the thing that Christians claim is the antichrist was the description of Nero.

[–] dontbelasagne@lemmy.world 4 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago) (1 children)

As someone that doesn't belive in the bible, the whole antichrist being nero thing doesn't add up. Nero reigned from 54 AD to 68 AD while the book of revelation, the one with the antichrist prophecies and that was published in 95 AD. I've heard the explanation that it was code, but why would they have to have code for someone that died 40 years before they wrote the code?

The word antichrist isnt meantioned in the bible, only John does mention it.

[–] dontbelasagne@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

The gnostic nag hamadi also mentions the antichrist and that was written at least the 2nd century. Interestingly they say the antichrist will have a female likeness which makes sense if you entertain it because if the antichrist is meant to be the complete opposite of christ, why wouldn't they identify as female?

I feel that Mango Mussolini is very Nero-like… so does that count for anything?

Rainbow capitalism, I've looked into LGBTq+ forums, subs it hurts the community and movements more than it helps them

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 5 points 6 hours ago

See, I actually agree with a lot of people who say they hate "Woke Things"

Because 7 out of 10 times, they're just mad at Rainbow Capitalism trying and failing to pander to "t3h gays", but for some reason believe that "t3h gays" asked for it, when in reality we did not.... the other 3 times nothing's wrong and "Woke" is just code for "There was a black guy who did something outside of be comic relief, but if I said that aloud people would call me racist... Which I am"
