This poetgirl on Instagram says some off the wall shit.
Some of these old bitches have totally lost their mind and just spread misinformation.
This is more than mildly infuriating for me but I wasn’t quite sure where else to post this lol.
~20% of the slaves brought to America were Muslim. Several fought during the Revolutionary War including Bampett Muhamed, Yusuf ben Ali (also known as Joseph Benhaley), and Joseph Saba: https://nmaahc.si.edu/explore/stories/african-muslims-early-america
TIL that nobody in the US military that has died has never ever been Muslim.
Hey, they never said anything about Muslims in foxholes! Lol
I’m pretty sure there have been plenty of Jews, Muslims, Atheists, and others that have bled for the US too.
Ssshhh, you’re making sense, you’ll scare them off!
I am one of those that have fought and is not Christian
Post the 10 commandments written in Arabic. Watch the reactive hilarity ensue.
Islam is still of the same lineage (Abrahamic).
They need to toss in unrelated & troll religions.
I really would love to see a one page document posted that simply says thus: “Cthulu Tenet - Do What Thou Wilt.”
You might be confusing Cthulhu with Crowley. Cthulu would be indifferent to most human activities other than boating.
“Christians” also stole this land and genocided people who had lived here since long before they came. Those who don’t like this should return to where their forefathers came from, no?
Didn’t the Christians have slaves that they brought over fight too? I’m sure some of them had different religious beliefs.
No, because, you see, after a certain amount of time the land just defaults to the ownership of whoever currently occupies the land, morally speaking 🥰. Why yes, I do happen to be the current occupant of the land, why do you ask? Oh, the amount of time? That depends, of course!
Oh, the amount of time? That depends, of course!
“… hmm let me see… hey Johnson, when did we land here again?”
Damn that is so good. Take my upvote!
They should totally post the ten Qurandments!
And the land of the free(not you) and the home of the brave(Until we killed them all off with blankets full of smallpox)
Why not post the Beatitudes then? Too gay for you?
Wrong… A simple google search shows that Muslims did indeed fight in the US revolutionary war along side other colonists
Or you could just say the 10 commandments are part of Islam.
They’re part of the Old Testament, which pulls from Jewish scripture, but it’s all Abrahamic to me. They should post the Beatitudes if they really want to keep things Christian-specific, but they won’t. Why? Just read them (and the corresponding Woes in Luke) and you’ll see. The Wikipedia article should be enough: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beatitudes
Mmm problem with the beatitudes is they’re kinda pretty open to interpretation. What do you consider merciful or righteous? Sure its narrowed down pretty well if you follow all of his teachings… but that’s asking a lot of modern American Christians.
Cool, and dickish on rightwingers part. But t also I didn’t realize they were even a minority population then past like- random individuals and families
Adjective-noun-number profile? That’s a bot
It is not. I confirmed it by digging further. It is a teacher from Texas
or just someone tired of making up usernames and thus using bitwarden’s username generator.
Sure, not saying that’s guaranteed. But it’s definitely a red flag
Christians fought for the land? You are talking about the genocide of native Americans? The same ones that owned slaves?.. Yeah ok, I understand why YOU like them so much now…
That is why they are trying to ban the facts you just shared.
Nothing but pro-White Nationalism propaganda allowed
About 20-30% of the people enslaved and deported to the US were Muslims.
The “Christians” brought Islam to North America by force.
There’s no hate like christian love
It is really sad since not all Christians are like that
If the ones that aren’t like that gave a fuck they would do literally anything to stop the ones that are. But because that would hurt their precious religion they just ignore it instead.
As far as I’m concerned they are all dog shit people. Willingly turning a blind eye to hate from your own is no better than spewing it yourself.
What would you have me do?
I can’t control other people
Yeah, we often see the entire non-terrorist Muslim population being held responsible for not doing enough to condemn terrorism, but Christians are let off the hook for the atrocities of their fundamentalists.
Dietrich Bonhoeffer was murdered by the SS because he didn’t stand idle as his country went full Nazi. He helped with multiple plots to assassinate Hitler, smuggled vulnerable people out of Germany and founded a church that rejected nazification that was later deemed illegal by the Nazis. The guy was a pastor. Do you honestly think he was dogshit for not doing enough?

I think the Catholic Church as an institution has abused the trust of a great many wonderful people who have made a relatively understandable mistake, in the sense that everyone is a product of their environment, in supporting its continued existence.
“Your inaction is your admission of guilt”.
Oh, fuck off with that bullshit. I don’t even have a desire to describe why and how exactly this way of thinking is crap
I assure you the ones that arent like that do give a fuck and do what they can with what ability they can when able. A lot of them go non denominational and some are fighting other battles elsewhere.
If you want to change their minds, you have to do it with promises & lies.
In the meantime, the pope will continue to shit in the woods.
Not all that segregate are doomed to hate. Just most.
Thanks for not telling us “we are going to hell”, we’re already here.
The ones that aren’t didn’t do much to stop the ones that are from taking over. You’d think they’d care more about the blasphemous hatred they spew. It makes all Christians look bad.
What would you like me to do? I don’t support the evangelicals.
There’s not much of anything you can do as an individual other than publicly denounce them. This is something church leaders should have nipped in the bud a long time ago.
You also can fuck right off. Didn’t do much my ass
Considering the evangelicals hold all the political power, they apparently didn’t. If they did try to fight them, they did a terrible job.
Lol. That’s funny. Do it again
What does stopping American Christofascists from reconstructing the US government into a baldly authoritarian cesspit look like for normal, moderate Christians? And how does it differ from what theists of other religions and atheists could do to stop the same thing (reconstruction of the US government)?
It’s decades too late at this point, but not accepting the far-right fundamentalists who were spewing clearly non-Christ-like rhetoric as fellow Christians would have been a good start. This applies more to church leadership than lay people, although a general sense of not accepting them from everyone would have still helped. They were happy to consider them when counting how many people in the US were Christian. Unlike non-theists and theist non-Christians alike, all Christians gain a lot by being the de facto state religion despite it supposedly being illegal.
Every 2000 years or so, religion goes to war with itself. Big war.
In the years between, it’s basically disputes over what to call the omnipotent being or which shoe to worship.
“Nyeah nyeah, my god is better than yours” - some cunt failing to realize they worship the same god
aka a nonexistant one
But the same nonexistent god of Abraham.
pretty much, but it doesn’t matter to them. What matters is what wrote the mastermind that invented all this bullshit and wrote it in a book so they can profit from it
indigenous people did, are you ok to show their spirituality in schools? I am sure there will be mass conversions lol
