      So the moms at my high school were right that JK Rowling was a demon summoning sorceress or whatever?https://twitter.com/injiduducu/status/1338468675830079488 …

      Thinking out loud, when has a movement made up predominantly of middle aged women, most of whom are mothers, ever been on the “wrong side” of child protection and safeguarding? Ever?

      When I was a kid it wasn't Harry Potter, it was Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh. I mean, Yu-Gi-Oh has Exodia, so it isn't that ridiculous that they freaked out about it, but how can they look at a Bulbasaur and see a demon?

      I had a teacher go off on this tirade about how Pokémon was evil because it taught "evolution" I pointed out that they don't mean Darwinian evolution, they mean an individual changing over the course of their lifetime, and he said that was what offended him

      God made you a certain way and to believe that you can fundamentally change and become more powerful over the course of your lifetime is one of Satan's lures The idea of transformation is fundamentally demonic and witchcraft It was fucked up

      I am periodically reminded that my experiences with both conservatism and Christianity as well as Abrahamic religion in general are, uh, not the same as yours or those of people in deep reactionary fundie areas. Because, WOW, that's fucked up and cartoonishly extreme.

      Replying to @loudpenitent @arthur_affect @ImpPercyPtible

      I think Satan and belief in Satanic influences are most consistently the dividing line between broadly mainstream (conservative or progressive) religious life, and more purely reactionary ones.

      Probably, I'm just... Wow. Like speaking from both my experiences and the (probably somewhat cherry picked) education in historic Christian culture I've had that's just deeply, deeply aberrant

      Not THAT many, really, in the big scope of things. They mostly went after heretics, which sucks too, but it's a different kettle of fish.

      In all seriousness, if you read a lot of stuff from Christian moralizers back in the day it was thoroughly earnestly and sincerely oppressive These long rants about how "passions" in and of themselves are destructive

      Bunch of people who settled America specifically to get away from secular music with violins in it (the electric guitar of its day), from the theatre and parades, from wine and coffee and spicy foods

          In their defense, they were just reading the Bible for themselves for the first time, and it turns out to be the WebMD of damnation.

          My point was just that while these people totally exist, they're outside of the mean even in Christian cultures outside of their own siloed spheres, so those of us who haven't much exposure to non-cosmopolitan Christianity end up going "?????"
