Calvinists, like all Christians, suck, but actually being mad that the Atlanta shooter's church kicked him out because of the soteriological implications is not a take anyone needed to hear https://twitter.com/ebruenig/status/1373748836972265473?s=20 …

Being Anti-Christian, while trying to oppose racism, isn't a good look either.

Why? Christianity, like pretty much all religion is regressive trash that helped create the racism we see in the world today.

Yeah, the Apostles of Christ NEVER taught racism, so no. Just claiming to be "Christian" doesn't make it so, and the charade, especially in Western Civilization is, and has been, transparent and obvious.

And yet Christian's have used the bible to excuse racism since the middle ages. Weird. Gotta love a no true scotsman

If I eat T-bone steak for dinner everyday, can I legitimately claim to be a Vegan? This has nothing to do with the "Scotsman dilemma".

Sure it does. This is also fallacious reasoning, applying a reductio ad absurdiam as though the two are comparable. A dietary preference is not the same as belonging to a religion, and comparing them as though there is parity is nonsensical.

Veganism isn't a "dietary preference", it's the practice of not eating animal scourced foods. So, someone who eats animal scourced foods, is by definition, not a Vegan. In the same way, a person or group with practices antithetical to the teachings of Christ isn't Christian.

If there were actually a clear consensus on what "the teachings of Christ" even are then the whole history of the West for the past 1700 years or more just straight up wouldn't have happened

This kind of thing is completely pointless My condemnation of "Christianity" is based on the actions of the vast majority of the institutions and individuals who have used that name for themselves If you find that to be unfair, take it up with them, not with me

I am a practising Christian, and I am not offended in the least with your assertions. I'm tired of fellow believers using God's name to do/say heinous things, and make such poor witness to the faith I hold dear.
