Jesus saves rule

You are not born:

L - Lesbian
G - Gay
B - Black
T - Transgender

It is a sin to live as LGBT.

It is not God's will.

But Jesus can change you.

It's called the BI-ble, not the Straight-ble. Adam AND Eve, not Adam or Eve.

Questions what they’re told

Fun fact, medieval Christians in some parts of Europe actually believed that "moors" (a catch all term for Africans at the time) with black skin would become white if they converted to Christianity, and there were many popular tales of this happening. Race as a concept hadn't really been invented yet, but medieval people did notice that people they encountered who had dark skin often practiced Islam and wrongly assumed that believing in Islam was the cause of the dark skin rather than it just being who happened to convert.
- so that means i can get a nice tan by converting slightly to islam, fucking sweet
  makes me wonder what the fuck trump follows, the church of cheddar?
- Modern Christians haven't really changed much.
- *moops

this is bi erasure.

How do you become black? Asking for a friend.
- house fire
- By sinning. Apparently.
  
  This is a real belief of the mormons.
  
  Hasn't worked for me.

- Honestly, academically speaking, that is an interesting question. It probes at the heart of what race really is.
  Is race how you are perceived? Then if someone darkened their skin and had surgery to take on certain facial features, sufficient to the point that people read and treat them as black, are they then black?
  Is race genetic? What if a white person used hypothetical generic engineering to give themselves a genotype of someone with largely African ancestry? Their phenotype is still white, but their genotype is black. They aren't read as white, but any children they have will be. Are they black? Will their children be? What if the genetic treatment also changes their phenotype? They now have the genes and a visual appearance that most would identify as black, but they know nothing of black culture and have lived in predominantly white communities their whole life. Are they now black?
  Is race more about culture? Do you have to be raised as part of a black community to be black? If a white person adopts a black infant and raises them to adulthood in an entirely white rural town, is that child black? What if the parents are super racist and try to turn their adopted kid visibly white by lightening their skin, and they do this to the kid from birth? Is the kid still black? What about the opposite? What if it's a white baby adopted by black parents and raised in a predominantly black community? Is that child black? What if the parents alter the child's appearance to be visibly black, and do so from birth?
  It's honestly a really interesting question, and countless dissertations and books have been written on the subject of what exactly race is. So I'm not really qualified to answer this question. I frankly don't know what precisely defines a person's race. My impression is that ultimately race is a very squishy, poorly defined concept. The questions above probe the definition by investigating its edges. Another way to do so would be to consider the concept of passing (in a racial sense.)
  I don't really have any answers here, only questions. But your question, "how do you become black?" really sent me down a rabbit hole. When you take the question seriously, it really starts getting to the heart of just what this thing we call "race* really is.
- Vote for Joe Biden.
- Call Rachel!
- Wow thats so offensive to ask. Get Out! /$
- Shoe polish?
- I learned from South Park that you can get a medial procedure done for that

Wow! All the Black people who experience systemic racism will be thrilled to know that Jesus can make them white.

You know what is a real sin? The fucking way that people in society are treated as productive workforces to further enrich the rich. The way that people get kicked on the street if they miss a rent payment. The way that the newspaper headlines say it's a tragedy that the Titan submersible sank, but if thousands of refugees drown in the mediterranean sea, it's not even worth a headline anymore. (i'm still pissed about the latter one). Refugees that exist in the first place because of rich people's greed for oil.

I haven't realized I am black until this post. Thanks religion, I'm now black because I'm a white bisexual guy.

They can’t even get their own scripture right, so I’m not surprised someone would botch this so badly, too.

If Jesus was here right now ICE would deport him then Israel would bomb him and these Christian cunts would say he deserved it because he "didn't follow the rules".
- I'm pretty sure ICE already deported Jesus.
- Maybe we should start calling them Pharisees.
- Why and how would Jesus go to the USA?
  
  Many are born in the US, some walk or fly there.
  
  Magic carpet.
  
  Why? Why not?
  How? He'll walk here!

Oh honey, I do not need this argument right now but I am compelled to tell you how wrong you are.
notices what community this is
Oh thank fuck. We're mocking the thing.
I need to sit down.
- The Fediverse is a... Decent place.
- Yeah, I had a WTF moment too.
- Also there's more.
  
  oh no. no more. not today.

It’s pretty unethical for Jesus to go around turning people gay then.
- Maybe he shouldn't have got so swole then
  
  His last supper was pure protein and steroids...
  
  Jesus is about to fly off that cross and go punch Lex Luthor.

The opposite is true. If you're gay, God made you that way for a damn good reason! Who are you to question His will? It is a mortal sin for a gay man to sleep with a woman!
- That's something archaic. God created you so you are attracted to people with the same sex attributes as yours. You ultimately decide what to do with it. You can't know God's intent, my child. Maybe he created you to become as strong as a bear, but maybe you were created as bottom generator
- Sorry, I've got to nitpick your excellent snarky comeback:
  It is a mortal sin for a gay man to sleep with a woman!
  Such a man isn't committing a sin; he's merely bi and confused about labels.
  
  Only if he sleeps with a woman because he likes it. Lots of gay men sleep with women to avoid the stigma of being a known homosexual (and/or being in denial and/or internalized homophobia).
  Wait, christianity doesn't approve of sex for pleasure, and many of these gay men in denial genuinely like their wives (just not sexually). Carry on, then.
  
  And being bi is, apparently, fine.

Right, because kids going through all this sexual/mental stress when they hit high school love making their lives more difficult with bullying and hatred, when they could just choose to be straight. Damn idiots.
/S
*Lol the black edit.

As a christian, it deeply saddens me to see oyher people who call themselves "christians", yet they spread hate and antipathy, going agaisnt basically everything that Jesus taught.
Wait, what do you mean you aren't born bla—
- You can bet hard cash that there are an uncomfortable number of ignorant people who thoroughly believe that one isn’t born black, but becomes black through any one (or more) of a myriad of perplexing and completely irrational reasons.
  
  I mean, blackness is a social construct. Though it's going to be a bit hard to make other people stop seeing you as black ...
  
  Yes, I do. Unfortunately, there was a myth that blah blah blah being black is the mark of Cain after killing Abel and people believed it.

What about Ezekiel 24:20 (edit 23:20)
20 She lusted after lovers with genitals as large as a donkey’s and emissions like those of a horse
- Ezekiel had complexes about his exes ex
- 23:20. To be clear.
  Off by a chapter.
  
  Thank you.
- Christians: wait no not like that_🥵
- Size queen with a hyperspermia fetish. Nothing wrong with that, it takes all kinds.
  What I'm curious about is how do they know the size of a horse's load? You don't just stumble across that one day at the farm.

and of course the original quotes are not related to homosexuality at all: https://www.reddit.com/r/OpenChristian/s/79askQI5Xn
basically it condemns rape. but mainstream conservative "christians" in power could not let such translations to spread

It’s crazy y’all. I used to be gay, then I read those verses and magically…. I’m not gay anymore. Praise Jesus!!!
- This is how I became white!

It's always fun when religious people claim to know what is or is not gods intent or doing, when they so often claim "his ways are unfathomable for us mere humans" whenever it suits them.
Or they use the Bible as source, a book written by humans who they never knew and cannot verify if they were terrible people. (based on the content of the bible they most likely were assholes based on modern values)

Why are you reposting ragebait shite
- It's obviously satire with "black"
  
  The difference between satire and reality is slimmer than most care to admit. Poe's Law most of all makes it near impossible to pull off "perfect" satire that's obviously satire to everyone.
  The only thing making this post satire compared to what many conservatives unironically believe (yes, even about black people) is it was posted to 196

hmmm
- In 1836 Elijah Abel was similarly promised he would "be made ... white in eternity"

Jesus saves... at the credit union.

I do think it is most likely true that one's gender and sexuality is not set at birth but instead emerges later for most people. I mean twin studies for one thing. Doesn't mean it's a choice though.
- Considering gender is a social construct it can't exist till a person has assimilated the information needed to create the construction.
  Them figuring out where they sit inside of that construction is the tricky part.
  Sexuality is hard to say, but considering observation in preferences among other species it's likely to not manifest fully till an organism goes though their equivalent of puberty.
  So in either case there's basically no real argument that either is from birth. But also there's even less of an argument that it's a conscious choice. It's a manifestation of the chemicals and/or the perception of the person. Depending on which of the two your talking about.
  Now if we talking about biological sex. Then yeah your born with the bits you have. Don't mean you can't have them changed. Or disagree with the social expectations of gender commonly associated with those bits. Thank you modern medicine and fuck expectations!
  
  For gender dysphoria there have been studies suggesting that prenatal hormone exposure plays a role. Many also experience dysphoria specifically about their genitals, so it's likely about more than just social gender constructs (probably also depends on the individual though), with at least some contributing factors already decided at birth.
  But yea, both gender and sexuality are very complex and there are bound to be environmental factors for both.
  
  Male homosexuality appears to be set before birth in at least some situations (but it's still not genetic) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraternal_birth_order_and_male_sexual_orientation
  
  I meant trans status, not gender. I don't know that science has entirely determined the cause of trans status or that it's social.
- I'm pretty sure black people are born black though
  
  Blackness is a social construct, too. You might be born with darker skin, but a lot (if not most) black people in the USA are very visibly mixed race and even if they weren't, it still doesn't follow that they automatically need to have all these socioeconomic issues and stereotypes attached to them.
  
  No. You accept Jesus, you become White.

... Black?
- Yep, that’s the joke.

Corinthians 69? Nice 😎
- Better than Two Corinthians?
  
  Well, at least two Corinthians.

You're certainly not born a christo-fascist arsehole. That's something you have to learn, and you probably have to unlearn a lot of basic human instincts as well..

Of course all old testament. They so conveniently forget that their hippy savior changed the rules, because of course they don't actually like his message; does not justify their desire to have power over others.
- they still have audacity to connect Sodom and Gomorrah with homosexuality
- Wasn't there something about a 'new covenant'?

Jesus is hrt?

who wrote this shite?

This is the angle we gotta play with bigotry.
Just constantly pointing out that you are born those things, and you don't harrass people because of how they were born.
- Let us know how that works out for you?

Lawdy Jeebus, homeschooling strikes again!

Oooh, number 3 is gonna be a tough one, even for Jebus.

they painted u!! with permanent marker!!! /s
