An app called Bless Every Home, which has been backed by some of the biggest names in evangelical circles, is mapping the names and addresses of immigrants and non-Christians.

Also doubles as a kill list for when they decide it's time.

Jesus Christ!

My old post: Christians think gay people are trying to convert people to being gay because Christians try to convert people to being Christian.

As a Christian: this is absolutely despicable. Jesus taught us to love our neighbors, and a huge part of loving someone is to respect their boundaries.

So screw this app and the people that built it. If you want to invite your neighbors to learn about Jesus:

1. Set a good example
2. Get to know them
3. Invite only when it's relevant (i.e. to a kid's baptism or whatever)

If they want to learn about Jesus, they'll ask.

That is absolutely terrifying.

If I made a least of where all the Christians live, they’d rightfully freak the fuck out.

It would be a real shame if people started leaving reviews on the play store with their concerns. Real shame i tell you, its sitting at a 4.7 rating with all but 1 five star, and they gave it a four star.

Anyways for any god loving Christian who just wants to download their app to pray for their neighbors, ive taken the ten seconds needed to visit their site and grabbed their app links.

Welp, time to create the reverse app and tag houses that are religious.

Do what you want with that information.

The church is an organization that preys on people using their fear of death.

These lunatics have a disturbing amount of control in the US government.

Laughing at them might be fun, and I was doing it until recently, but they’re not joking. The worse our climate disasters become – and they will very soon – the more scared people will become, and the more these groups will take advantage of that fear. We’ll see more climate refugees, more desperation, and more fear. These groups prey on fear, and they’ll amplify it on purpose.

True fascism thrives on fear, which is why these people amplify it like they do. When climate disasters accelerate, these groups will harness the social upheaval to take control. I don’t know what we can do to stop it, but we should all be thinking about and sharing ways to head it off, because they’ve got plans in place already.

I know I sound paranoid, but I’ve been watching them and these aren’t my ideas, but theirs. They talk about this a lot, and if we aren’t prepared, their plans could actually work. I don’t want to live in the fascist future they’re planning. If we don’t combat it, we’ll be living in the Handmaid’s Tale before most of us realise.

OK, does this title end abruptly or am I just really high?

This is a yikes, they're doing the Westboro Church tactics without wanting the money, just to harass.

The Mapping Center for Evangelism and Church Growth’s founder and president Chris Cooper suggests using the app to conduct neighborly activities such as putting on a barbecue for potential converts, but scattered throughout the app’s training and promotional videos are suggestions to undertake the controversial practice of “prayerwalking.” An idea becoming increasingly popular among Christian supremacist groups, prayerwalking involves believers flooding so-called “un-Christian” territories in order to combat “demonic strongholds.” In practice, it varies from blessing new neighbors to gathering groups to pray in front of everything from mosques to drag bars in service of “spiritual warfare.”

Wait till they start using that same data to harass and target.

JFC, I installed the app and added "my address" and immediately was given a list of names and addresses to "pray for".

How am I supposed to pray for so many people!? What am I, an ATM?! Gelatians 4:20:69 had nothing to do with Gelato!1! This is getting 1 star and reported on the app store.

This is terrifying. Thank fuck I'm not in the US. I already get anxious when some random knocks on my door. If they started spouting off about praying for me and my family I'd be weirded right the fuck out.

Granted, I love my physical privacy. I generally don't answer the door to plain cloths unless I'm expecting someone. My 5 year goal is to move outside of my current town and have no neighbours. Preferably with a nice long driveway that I may install a gate on at the road.

This is concerning. I don't want some stranger knowing personal details about me before I even know they exist

When people ring your bell to annoy you about religion, reply by trying to converting them into atheism or another religion (satanism included)

This is real bad. I'm a christian (albeit a very unorthodox one), and this goes against everything Christians are supposed to follow according to the bible. This can only be construed as church authoritarianism. Maybe this is why I'm looked down upon by most "Christians" out there, but I could not care less. If a christian says or does anything that does not align with LOVE EVERYONE,that's not a christian, but a "faith merchant". Their "privacy policy" is tailored to make it seem like they are doing God's work, when reading it with the intent to understand clearly displays the intention to gather data on you and everyone around you. And I'm sorry, but anyone that does this is guilty of wanting data to sell until proven otherwise, no exceptions.

- Who Has Access to Your Data

"Your password is not accessible by or shared with anybody. Not even we can access it. It is stored in an inaccessible encrypted format."

So, ONLY the password is encrypted, everything else is stored as clearly as a traffic sign. Noted.

"None of the information entered by you is shared with anybody unless you specifically give us permission to do so by opting in to affiliate your Light role with one or more of our partner organizations; by opting in to have your contact information available to other Light roles in your neighborhood; or by creating an administrator role in a partner organization."

Where have we seen this before? Ah, right, in EVERY parivacy policy on every single company known to sell our data for profit without caring about anyone or anything except getting more money.

Funny thing is, there's no mention anywhere on how they are getting the data on what they call the "blessees". Care to take a wild guess on how that's done?

I am genuinely sorry that this is happening, and blown away by how disgusting this is. No wonder most people don't want anything to do with us, Christianity has become everything Jesus spoke against.

They've also just mapped themselves by selecting the inverse

I'm assuming in a bid to conduct door-to-door preaching is what the title was supposed to say?

Can we appreciate how incredibility messed up it is to have Christians trying to tell other religions are not valid? It is terribly messed up to try to convert Muslims to Christianity.

With that being said it is important to note that this is a small group of people in Christianity. They are ruining the reputation for all denominations and creating Christian hate which will hurt Christians everywhere in the long run. I wonder how they would react if there was Jewish protest in front of there Church

I hope they come to my door. I'll tell them all the stuff that is taught in Seminary that they don't teach the parishioners.

That being said, this is totally fucked up. Hopefully someone that is affected can sue them into oblivion.

I feel like this information is going to get sold to GOT--sorry, 'voter suppression' efforts and general databrokers.

Thats some Gilead shit.

I dare one of them to show up to my front door. They are going to be in for a fucked up conversation that will make them second guess their life choices.

I might need to get a door decoration that tells them to leave me alone. Then I won't feel bad about telling them to leave. I gave them a chance.

I mean they don't need sensitive data, they already know which house is religious, because the people signed up for it. So by default every other home gets added. That is all very puplic information.

This is basically the same as the voting rolls that democrats and republicans use for canvassing. The amount of information they have and have had for years predating the internet, is immense.

I feel like I need the hero protecting the little person meme. The arrows are roving bands of proselytizers, and the hero is my little "no soliciting" sign

Why did you decide to change the title and then stop halfway through?

Christians like this are why I've followed the Morrigan for 15 years

"The app boasts influential supporters, including the former leader of the Southern Baptist Convention, Jim Henry, and controversial Christian data-harvesting firm Gloo. It puts a lot of features at the fingertips of the faithful, including the ability to filter whole neighborhoods by religion, ethnicity, “Hispanic country of origin,” “assimilation,” and whether there are children living in the household."

Christ.

Any of you super coders in here know of a way to download the app ourselves and inject significant amounts of false data into it?

It doesn't seem to be available on android
