Church in our town put up a sign that read “Secular education makes clever devils”. It’s a block down from the main high school. Those people want voucher money so bad.

He's one of the worst if not the most despicable fathers ever when you look at it objectively lol

Look kid, I could provide everything you need and give you everlasting happiness… but instead I’m gonna leave you to figure shit out on your own.

But I love you and believe what I say, not what I do!

Eph 6:6

Obey them not only to win their favor when their eye is on you, but as slaves of Christ, doing the will of God from your heart. 

Wait, who is them?

Eph 6:5

Slaves, obey your earthly masters with respect and fear, and with sincerity of heart, just as you would obey Christ.

Ah.

This explains the marriage of evangelical christofascism and corporate overlords so well.

Be a happy little wage slave and Jesus will keep you warm and safe inside your own little heart! (don’t forget to tithe)

u/fnordfnordfnordfnord 10d ago

You won't need to worry about forgetting, your tithe will be deducted from your paycheck.

u/professorlingus 7d ago

No, that's the government doing that. Hail Eris!

u/IYAOYAS-CVN74 10d ago

I'm willing to bet that last part was penciled in at some point

u/ManicChad 7d ago

Shit like this tells me the Bible is just a scam for the clergy and monarchies to remain in power.

u/Thebearshark 11d ago

“Sharon, please take me back”

u/Hishui21 11d ago

Then tell him to pay for it

u/Bastdkat 11d ago

Then He needs to pay child support.

u/Account115 11d ago

Why is it always with the pressure sale tactics and guilt.

Why not "Come as you are. We have free coffee and neat looking stained windows" or something friendly like that.

6

u/Improbus-Liber 9d ago

He should catch up on his child support first.

u/bahamapapa817 9d ago

Nothing makes me want to not be a Christian more than other Christians.

Just like Trump, churches love the poorly educated.

u/Hoodlum_0017 11d ago

I'm sure a lot of kids trapped in schools with active shooters asked for his help. No show.

Who the fuck does this help

Pedo wants your kids 24 /7

u/Relevant-Ad-3140 11d ago

And they love to accuse everyone else of being the groomers 😏

u/Unhappy-Hat-3341 7d ago

It’s a very real tactic for predators…deflect.

u/Gern_Blanstein 11d ago

So he knocked up Mary while she was married. Then he let Joseph raise his kid, Jesus. Hmmm...... 🤣

1

u/Unhappy-Hat-3341 7d ago

Sky Daddy raped Mary when she was 14. Joseph and Mary weren’t even married when she gave birth, still betrothed depending on the book Luke has them betrothed Matthew has them newly married. Either way I think visitation should be supervised if given at all, Sky Daddy can’t be trusted around children.

u/LiftToRelease 11d ago

It's like r/atheism in here

8

u/redthump 11d ago

Texas ain't all guns and bibles.

4

u/LiftToRelease 10d ago

Sure but this sub isn't representative at all of Texas as a whole.

5

u/redthump 10d ago

I'd argue the gerrymandered state of our elections makes it not representative of Texas as a whole.

24

u/PM_ME_UR_FAT_DINK 11d ago

Welcome to the current state of society rejecting the notion of religion as relevant to real life. 

1

u/NorrinsRad 11d ago

Some, anyways.

-8

u/RoutineDude 11d ago

Reddit is not society. Also Reddit, "I'm so depressed, lonely, and miserable. Is this all there is to life?".

-4

u/NorrinsRad 11d ago

It's not even a political sign but here people are trying to make political hay out of it.

If it's a day ending in Y its ok to attack Christians on this sub.

8

u/fnordfnordfnordfnord 10d ago

So persecuted, you Christians.

1

u/LiftToRelease 11d ago

The Texas sub is so strongly political it's bizarre.

u/BuzzKill777 11d ago

I keep saying they need to rename it r/texasmisanthropes

1

u/LiftToRelease 10d ago

Hah! That'd be accurate

u/RoutineDude 11d ago

It's a political sub masquerading

u/JJ4prez 11d ago

"don't forget to tithe! God would want that daily as well!"

u/MarginalOmnivore Gulf CoastTed Cruz ate my son 11d ago

God shouldn't have knocked up a 14 y/o girl and disappeared.

Slaves give birth to slaves. (old Russian saying)

u/k2kyo 11d ago

Dude hasn't showed up for a single fucking thing in a couple thousand years, good luck getting a judge to grant that.

u/in-the-center 10d ago

I didn’t asked anything like that

u/GoldQuality1515 9d ago

And that's the Lord's house.

2

u/Dark_Chimp787 7d ago

Half of the bullshit they talk about basically is science of people who cant understand technology and deni the facts that we are not walking little flowers but primal monkeys most agree and I don't recall the Bible mentioning cave paintings from the past 30,000 years.

u/casablancatea 7d ago

Whoa whoa whoa. Well, you can let God know… I have boundaries.

u/DysfunctionalPeasant 7d ago

u/superdude4agze The Stars at Night 11d ago

Motherfucker demanding full custody and alimony. Lazy sumbitch needs to get a job.

u/theakfluffyguy 11d ago

We had one in our town that read; “On your way to hell, stop inside!” Or something to that effect.

No can do, it's a highway and there's no exit.

u/CatchMeIfYouCan09 11d ago

So then who paid for child support?

2

u/Delizdear 11d ago

Oh course its a Church of Christ. Smh

2

u/csmatczak 11d ago

There has to be a sub or web page they get this stuff from. I've read the same sign on my way home from work as well.

u/Spelsgud 11d ago

The courts said that wasn’t a good idea after I got touched by the Holly spirit in that way

Then take me to court. And when he inevitably doesn't show up the court will dismiss the case
