 @c586c339 I feel the same way about people who wear crosses. Why does everyone need to know your Christian? No one cares. 
 @Shebang! :blobpeektrans: @c586c339 Some people see it as a way of confessing Christ openly which christians are commanded to do (in other words not deny you are a disciple of Christ). I don't do it and don't feel it necessary. I'm just relating a reason I'm aware of. 
 What if Jesus’s message was too embody the Christ conscience? 
Christ wasn’t his last name, by the way 
 what if all the dudes that he told to follow him around wrote down what his message was, and we've preserved it for 2000 years? LOL 
 What if the jews and shabos goy rewrote the Bible 100 times over the last 1,700 years? 
 good luck with that i say, you get cursed for doing that. 
 What if Jesus literally meant reincarnation when he said you have too be “born again,” instead of dunking your head in a heated pool at a Southern Baptist revival tent? 
 why would i know? ask a pastor. 
 @“Bacon Wrapped Turkey” Fever @Shebang! :blobpeektrans: @c586c339 @f9408be4 @Zealist 
What if "born again" means resurrection? What if we're all gonna come back as some kinda undead? What if Jesus is a zombie god?

>And behold, the curtain of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom. And the earth shook, and the rocks were split. The tombs also were opened. And many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised, and coming out of the tombs after his resurrection they went into the holy city and appeared to many.

What did Matthew mean by this? 
 That’s a Cabala rewrite after the jews confiscated the Gutenberg Press 
 @f9408be4 @c586c339 Obviously, I don't have a problem with it in reality. I don't think people should be obliged to hide their faith or anything like that. 

But I do have a problem with the usual old bastards who have a problem with everyone who isn't like them, and I enjoy giving them a little tweak now and again.

It's just typical hypocrisy from the usual suspects -- I'm allowed to express myself, but you aren't, etc.

Happy to have brought this drama to the socials 😂
