About

This is the official Lemmy for the r/ReligiousCringe***** subreddit. This is a community about poking fun at the religious fundamentalist's who take their religion a little bit too far. Here you will find religious content that is so outrageous and so cringeworthy that even someone who is mildly religious will cringe.

Rules

  1. All posts must contain religious cringe. All posts must be made from a religious person or must be showcasing some kind of religious bigotry. The only exception to this is rule 2

  2. Material about religious bigots made by non-bigots is only allowed from Friday-Sunday EST. In an effort to keep this community on the topic of religious cringe and bigotry we have decide to limit stuff like atheist memes to only the weekends.

  3. No direct links to religious cringe. To prevent religious bigots from getting our clicks and views directs links to religious cringe are not allowed. If you must a post a screenshot of the site or use archive.ph. If it is a YouTube video please use a YouTube frontend like Piped or Invidious

  4. No Proselytizing. Proselytizing is defined as trying to convert someone to a particular religion or certain world view. Doing so will get you banned.

  5. Spammers and Trolls will be instantly banned. No exceptions.

Guys! Look at this translation of a translation of a translation that was written by people like me that supports my argument!!

What do these people think they're proving by quoting "the" Bible? There are no surviving original texts, and they sure as fuck weren't written in English. The guys who translated it weren't without their own agendas, either.

You're actually saying that the hebrew doesn't say the same thing? That's not a relevant argument, as it doesn't matter what its stance on trans people is, as its opinion doesn't matter anyway.

To be fair most modern publications of the bible are actually quite direct from the sauce, the NSRVUE in particular is a truly ecumenical source intended to provide an academic translation from the recent discoveries of the oldest sources currently available, including finds like the dead sea scrolls.
