    Holy shit this is the most accurate metaphorical depiction of modern Christians I’ve ever seen.

      Fun fact there’s a guy in my area who drags around a cross made of recycled oak pieces (bits of old furniture cut and glued together) every Easter. Apparently he made it out of raw spite about performative and hypocritical Christians, he is mildly insane and was not even vaguely phased by my crazed neo pagan schtick so take of that as you will.

          Not much to say about it, I just make batshit insane statements that wouldn’t be out of place in viking themed RPG. Shit like “The Norns must hate you for our fates to cross” and “Thine flesh will make a fine sacrifice to the many named god” note I usually avoid saying Odin since he is still so relevant to pop culture as to be effectively stripped of any erieness same with Thor, so I go down the borderline Lovecraft route of names and titles or I just use lesser known ones like Godin which I think is the Lombard version.

    It’s a perfect metaphor for the performative Christianity they love: all show, no effort

    If they’re too lazy to even perform during their performative gestures, what’s the fucking point?!

    They should just send a guy out there wearing a life size replica of Charlie Kirks head like a theme park mascot yelling “OBEY” followed by whatever they want their cult to do/feel/etc.

        What are you talking about, he did survive it, though he slept for 3 days before going to say bye to his friends then goy the fuck out of there before the sick fucks tried again. He then went to Scandinavia where he taught the people to mostly be cool, but, worried about another backlash, told them that maybe one day they can raid and pillage every now and then as a treat.

          You are correct if one were to assume the contents of the bible are an accurate representation of history; it’s mentioned several times during the passion. Effectively Jesus, being God, could have just noped out or gone Old Testament or whatever. He specifically talked about that in the garden of Gethsemane basically saying he knows what’s going to happen and is doing so voluntarily.

    Holy shit this is so hilarious and so fucking awful. Jesus would be so pissed.

    Now I’m imagining Peter Thiel pitching Jesus an easy button as an alternative to sacrificing himself for the sins of humanity.
