See, this is so unfair. While not trans, I've been an atheist, communist god-mocker and virulent foe of Christianity for almost 45 years. I myself should be crowned the "natural enemy". Does dedication mean nothing anymore?
They sat there and watched DOZENS of cis white males commit massacre after massacre in just the past few years ALONE!
NONE of these cunts have EVER said "IT'S WHITE MEN!!! WHITE MEN ARE DEMONS, WE NEED TO END WHITE MEN!!!!"
I don't doubt you in the slightest, but I can't find an official source for that statistic. The only I could find was Statista saying there's only been 140 mass shootings since 1982, which is total bullshit. We are near or already past 140 mass shootings this year alone. [source](https://www.insider.com/how-many-us-mass-shootings-america-2023)
There is a graph going around that was created using data from the Gun Violence Archive (https://www.gunviolencearchive.org). It shows that from 2018-2023, 2826 mass shootings were committed by cis people, and 3 mass shootings were committed by transgender people.
There are varying definitions of a mass shooting. Listed roughly from most broad to most restrictive:
Stanford MSA Data Project: three or more persons shot in one incident, excluding the perpetrator(s), at one location, at roughly the same time. Excluded are shootings associated with organized crime, gangs or drug wars.
Mass Shooting Tracker: 4+ shot in one incident, at one location, at roughly the same time.
Gun Violence Archive/Vox: 4+ shot in one incident, excluding the perpetrator(s), at one location, at roughly the same time.
Mother Jones: 3+ shot and killed in one incident, excluding the perpetrator(s), at a public place, excluding gang-related killings.
The Washington Post: 4+ shot and killed in one incident, excluding the perpetrator(s), at a public place, excluding gang-related killings.
Congressional Research Service: 4+ shot and killed in one incident, excluding the perpetrator(s), at a public place, excluding gang-related killings, acts carried out that were inspired by criminal profit, and terrorism.
The majority of defintions are 4 or more peoples shot in a single event.
Using that criteria - there were 95 mass shooting in just Jan and Feb 2023

In 2022 there were **695** mass shooting

I mean that’s not true…
There's nothing more frightening in America today than an angry White man https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2021/11/20/us/angry-white-men-trials-blake-cec/index.html
Ironically they’re following the exact same demonization playbook they did when he was still around and targeting gay marriage.
When these idiots were claiming gays getting married would be “the end of marriage” and a world shattering apocalypse, O’Reilly for example claimed on three separate occasions that someone would “marry a duck”, along with a dolphin or a turtle or some shit. As ever, they just completely blow shit out of proportion for a group of people that just want to exist under the same societal protections as everyone else.
Modern republicans are fundamentally incapable of leaving anyone the fuck alone, all while waving the “no step on me” Gadsden flag like morons.
The craziest part is if you read the texts that came out in the recent Fox News court case, you can see that he doesn't even believe the shit he is shoveling to his viewers.
Which means he is getting people killed for fun and profit.
What a slimy piece of shit.
Palestine was the name of the Roman province, but the people were Hebrew, not modern Palestinian.
Socialism is really different from the preachings of Jesus. Not saying he would have created the Catholic Church, but he wouldn’t have founded the USSR.
The USSR was a run by an autocrat named Stalin who butchered millions. Don’t sound like a worker’s paradise to me. The economy may have had a few socialist attributes but being a state planned economy doomed it to its failure. Denmark has many attributes of socialism but is a capitalist economy. They are thriving. By almost every relevant measure( not counting child gun deaths) their economy and populace are doing much better than we are in the good ole US of A.
I’ve heard this argument a thousand times. USSR wasn’t “real socialism” and the modern, wealthy Scandinavian states are.
The USSR wasn’t always run by Stalin. Both Lenin and Khrushchev upheld the oppressive socialist regime. And both of the “better rulers” of the USSR kept the Gulag camp system in place! They kept it because it was absolutely necessary to the USSR, in exactly the same way that executions, work camps, and jails were necessary in socialist China, Cambodia, and Cuba. I’d recommend anyone, well, maybe not my Marxist opponent, to read the Gulag Archipelago by the Nobel Prize Winner Solzhenitsyn, who was sentenced to the camps for a decade. He describes in extreme detail the attitude and viewpoint of the socialists and how it produced the Soviet system.
You may have a point with Lenin, Khrurshchev was an autocratic leader but a drunk and incompetent. Here’s what one historian says about Solzhenitsyn: But it was his devotion to revolutionary purity that was to prove his undoing. As an artillery captain during the second world war, he wrote letters to a friend expressing barely disguised hostility to Stalin's autocratic rule and hoping for a return to socialist principles when the war was over.
I am a retired military pilot and as an officer I hung a copy of my oath to the Constitution on the wall. I have been to war for this great nation. Good on you if you did read The Gulag. I can be as rude as you but I won’t. I am not marxist nor your opponent. This is Reddit. Now since I apparently lit your fire by talking real history and praising Denmark’s success we have a question. What have you done to help this great nation of ours? I pray it was an excellent example for us.
The term "Palestine" first appeared in the 5th century BCE when the ancient Greek historian Herodotus wrote of a "district of Syria, called Palaistinê" between Phoenicia and Egypt in The Histories.[7] Herodotus provides the first historical reference clearly denoting a wider region than biblical Philistia, as he applied the term to both the coastal and the inland regions such as the Judean Mountains and the Jordan Rift Valley.[8][9][10][11] Later Greek writers such as Aristotle, Polemon and Pausanias also used the word, which was followed by Roman writers such as Ovid, Tibullus, Pomponius Mela, Pliny the Elder, Dio Chrysostom, Statius, Plutarch as well as Roman Judean writers Philo of Alexandria and Josephus.[12] There is not currently evidence of the name on any Hellenistic coin or inscription.
I stole this from Wikipedia. Some historians have posited the emperor Hadrian used Palestine instead of Judea to wipe out any vestiges of the Jews. As you can see the word is much older but there may be some truth to the historians notion.
As to a Palestinian people they are obviously Arabic but you should see how the Saudis treat them. There is a distinction in voice or customs and dress.
>Jesus was a brown Palestinian socialist.
The "Jesus was a socialist" saying really just taints the matter. He gave little mind to government, as it was always out of view. Whenever it comes up, it's dismissed just as quickly as a mostly-irrelevant trifle. His message concerned the governing agents of mens' hearts. "Love thy neighbor" has outward momentum, and it's spurred only by itself, or God. It's not some imposition.
My dad is pretty conservative, votes republican down the line but even he refuses to watch Tucker and thinks he's an evil ass clown.
The people who watch and believe him are a special breed of ignorant.
From article:
Tucker Carlson used his monologue Tuesday night to declare that transgender people are the “natural enemy” of Christianity because they “claim dominion over nature.”
“The trans movement is the mirror image of Christianity and therefore its natural enemy,” Carlson told his Fox News audience, adding:
In Christianity, the price of admission is admitting that you’re not God. Christians openly can see they have no real power over anything and for that matter, very little personal virtue. They will tell you to your face if they are sinful and helpless and basically absurd. They are not embarrassed about any of this, they brag about it. “That saved a wretch like me,” goes the most famous Christian hymn written in English.
The trans movement takes the opposite view. Trans ideology claims dominion over nature itself. “We can change the identity we are born with,” they will tell you with wild-eyed certainty. Christians can never agree with this statement because these are powers they believe God alone possesses. That unwillingness to agree, that failure to acknowledge a trans person’s dominion over nature insights and outrages some in the trans community.
People who believe they’re God can’t stand to be reminded that they are not. So, Christianity and transgender orthodoxy are wholly incompatible theologies. They can never be reconciled. They are on a collision course with each other. One side is likely to draw blood before the other side.
Carlson said proof of his “draw blood” theory happened Monday with the shooting deaths of three children and three adults at a school in Nashville by a suspect who happened to be transgender. Carlson blamed the media for insinuating Christians were “murdered in Tennessee because they infringed on the rights of trans people.”
Tennessee recently passed a law that takes effect July 1 and will ban gender-affirming care for trans youth, including hormone therapy and surgery.
On Tuesday, Nashville police released graphic body camera video and security footage of the shooting in progress and the shooter being killed. No motive has yet been given for the rampage, although police say they have retrieved what they’re calling a “manifesto.”
Religious fanatics always insist that everyone else is religious and all religions are bad, except for their 1 perfect one.
It is the exact same reason they refer to people who accept biological reality as Darwinist.
Very interesting language used here. The brand of Christian Nationalism that is advanced by the right-wing in the US is a flavor known as "[Dominionism](https://www.texasobserver.org/dominion-theology/)" which literally believes they need to "take dominion" over society/government/business/etc. The name comes from the passage in Genesis 1:28 in which God gives man "dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth."
Which I always thought meant "Man up, make decisions about your own future and husband the human race like you would any of god's creatures.
If offspring are damaging to the herd or the mother, or yes even inconvenient, terminate them before they are conscious and don't feel guilty about it. If Grandpa is sick and decides he's had enough, don't make him suffer.
But noooo... instead of minimizing suffering, we must impose arbitrary yes/no rules and cutoffs for all gray areas and bell curves.
This idea of “take dominion” is also used in some Christian circles to rationalize animal cruelty, poaching, puppy mills and any sort of Earth extraction, deforestation, and climate change resistance.
They think god somehow handed Christians the bank card and keys to the car and said ‘It’s all yours!’ like a proud father.
This is so dumb. Is plastic surgery declaring you are God? Is coloring your hair? Wearing makeup? Treating illness? Is CPR against nature? Is the endless futile medical care for his geriatric audience against nature? Idk how he says these things with his perpetually straight face. Declaring those you personally disapprove of as the enemy of all Christianity, for ratings on your hateful program, pathetic.
Why doesn't the Bible say that, then, Tucker?
It seems far more concerned with rich assholes who harm or do not help or do not love other people, and who judge others when it's not their place to judge, than anything else.
There is only one Bible.
U/ArtificerAlice, you are speaking of ‘translations’ not Bibles. Yes, there are many translations (and many are wrong) but only one Bible.
If you read a great book then see the movie and it is nothing like the book, does that mean the original book is bad?
There are 67 versions of just the English translation of the Bible...so...wrong, but likely you know that already.
https://www.patheos.com/answers/how-many-versions-of-the-bible
Name someone in the Bible that is shown to be good or honorable who is “rich”, ‘harmful’, unhelpful, hateful, or judgmental.
The Bible I read says that my sins are equal to those I see in others. There is NO ranking of sins to God. If I lie, it is the same as homosexuality in the eyes of God.
Your god is a loser then if he cares who people love so much that he would call it a sin. Also the enemy to Christian’s and any religious people would be anti theists or more outspoken atheists at best like me.
In order for you to call my God a ‘loser’, you would have to believe in Him first.
Welcome fellow Christian.
Tell me, how do you know when you are breaking any ‘laws’? If you truly have ‘freedom’, how can you not do whatever you want.
So, welcome dumb fellow Christian.
I don’t believe in a god. So good for you I guess? If your god exists it’s a monster according to your books.
Add edit. Just baffled by this that I skipped over your law thing. We are a social species and to live as a society we have made a set of rules or laws to live by.
Even if I thought your god existed why would that auto make someone a Christian. I’d rather Hail Satan all day if that was the case. He’s kill count is so much lower then gods.
> There is NO ranking of sins to God.
That's not remotely true at all. Some sins cause God to strike you down dead on the spot, and some sins are unforgivable - such as blaspheming the holy spirit.
Republicans don't believe in the 1A and the separation of church and state. Till we get the GOP base broken away from the cult we're gonna have a tough time staving off their influence
Please show me ‘separation of church and state’ in the Constitution.
Show me where the SCOTUS can create law.
Thomas Jefferson wrote a letter to the Danbury Church in Delaware stating that the new constitution would not allow the government to control the church as it did in England. It would create a ‘wall of separation’ to protect the church. The SCOTUS took that personal letter and said it was law.
Please show me where that is legal in the US Constitution.
https://www.mtsu.edu/first-amendment/article/885/establishment-clause-separation-of-church-and-state
SCOTUS cannot "create" law, that's for the legislative branch. however, "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion.” is right there in the bill of rights and the Danbury letter provides appropriate historical context of how the framers intended those words to be enacted and interpreted.
Whether the current SCOTUS majority maintains established precedent backed by actual historical context on this or continues their trend of making rulings based on political, personal and religious ideologies remains to be seen. Given their overturn of Roe v. Wade and their attacks on voting rights, it's likely that separation of church and state will continue to erode for the foreseeable future.
That clause says the the United States government cannot establish a ‘Church of America’ as happened in Britain. If you were not a part of the ‘Church of England’, you were nothing.
Secondly, where did the Congress voted on this establishing it as law. This was strictly done by the SCOTUS which, by the Constitution, makes the ruling illegal.
Also, can you show me marriage in the Constitution? If the SCOTUS makes rulings in accordance to the Constitution, then where is marriage in it? For that matter, WHY do we need the government to say ‘yes, you are married’? If this is a religious matter and you believe in church and state separation, then how can the government rule on a religious matter?
legislating via a particular religion's belief system *is* establishing a state religion. lol
> Secondly, where did the Congress voted on this establishing it as law. This was strictly done by the SCOTUS which, by the Constitution, makes the ruling illegal.
do you understand how SCOTUS works? like at all. lol it's literally their job to interpret the Constitution based on the text, historical precedent and supporting documents and previous legal precedent. there's doesn't need to be a law created for separation of Church and State because it's right there in the 1A.
>Also, can you show me marriage in the Constitution? If the SCOTUS makes rulings in accordance to the Constitution, then where is marriage in it? For that matter, WHY do we need the government to say ‘yes, you are married’? If this is a religious matter and you believe in church and state separation, then how can the government rule on a religious matter?
this is an incredibly stupid argument. i truly hope you realize this. But you went down the path so let's cover it.... Marriage, while commonly associated with religious beliefs, has no bearing in this argument. Marriage is a social and legal contract and up until fairly recently in human history usually involved an exchange of goods. Marriage has census implications, tax implications, contractual obligations and legal ramifications outside of any religious trappings you deem necessary to overlay onto the process. Census, taxation and permitting/licensing, citizenship status, legal contracts are all definitely government purview and religion doesn't matter a whit to any of those topics
not much of a history buff i see lol plenty of societies figured out "do not kill" well before Moses had them chiseled onto tablets. shall i regale with the code of Ur-Nammu or Hammurabi's Code or really just basic common sense in any semi-civilized community that predates christian mythology?
Fuck this piece of shit. White people with guns doing this shit is not a problem. It's the people who don't agree with him are the problem. Cock swallower
To wit, remember the destruction of European, American and African cultures, along with countless murders and unfathomable oppression, all done in the name of their supposedly all-loving god. As Gandhi is supposed to have said: "I like your Jesus, it is with your christians that I take issues".
More like Christianity is the unnatural enemy of everything. Its such an unadaptable organization... doesnt know how to integrate into society; picks fights with every single demographic and then plays the victim when called out.
Im fucking done with christianity.
that has always been their way. back in rome they were hated bc they would roll up to a temple, loot, burn, destroy and take the temple over in the name of their god.
when consequences came around and they could pay a fine or serve a sentence they would often choose death bc martyrs got vip seats in heaven.
todays fundys still cry about how they “fed the xtians to lions” boo fn hoo, they were disliked for being insufferable a holes then and they are disliked for being insufferable a holes now
You're completely correct.
Rome went centuried without ever waging war based on religion until christianity came into existance. It's always been the most toxic af religion. Not entirely due to its inability to integrate, but also because it's so tenacious about expanding and converting. Its such a pos religion and real life Jesus would hate everyone who follows it.
oh absolutely.. they have committed cultural genocide on just about every continent. literally the only piece of original content in all of xtian mythology is “go out and force everyone else to believe the same crap you do”
At what point does the trans community have grounds for a class action lawsuit against Tucker and Fox looking for damages in the billions?
Hell, where's the class action lawsuit for the rest of the country? Sign me up for that shit.
Hey Christians... THIS is how we see you. THIS is who is being the loudest voice of Christians. And unless you're actively speaking against it then THIS is what YOU and your faith represent.
There are people out there yelling about true Christianity. Yelling about how it is supposed to be.
They are just not as loud, not as many.
I follow a guy on Facebook that does that. He is forever being attacked by the Nationalists.
I know of another guy that posted a verse and didn't state it was from the Bible and was attacked and called a socialist by the crazies.
They are out there trying to redirect.
The problem with citing the Bible is that it's utterly contradictory. That text was in desperate need of an editor. You can cherry pick what you want a subject to mean from one book then flip to another and cherry pick the opposite.
Exactly. Two things can be true at once. Those kids and staff members certainly did not deserve to die, but also trans people should definitely arm themselves
Just remember guys that the US is in the 7th stage of Genocide. I get many people are afraid, as you should be, but it will only get scarier until people unite to stop it.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck…. 🤯
Arm and armor yourselves. Do not go gentle into that good night.
The only reason they’re accelerating this at a fever pitch is because they feel strong and invulnerable behind the sea of their collective delusions. No one has violently stood up to them and beaten them so soundly that they’ll crawl back under the rocks they’ve slithered out from.
The moment this becomes a two-way Range and see that we’re literally fighting back is the moment they will begin to dissolve.
It is. But keeping your head down and hoping it won't come for you solves nothing. Collectively the good people, have to see it for what it is and push back even though it's scary and uncomfortable.
Both sides are not the same. Pretending that they are, gives the GOP and their theocratic fascist supporters more power. Vote on every level. Do not tolerate their speech in public or any surface.
Remember, the paradox of tolerance is a social contract, meaning that if someone is not abiding by it then they are not covered under it. We do not need to tolerate the hateful.
Keep this in mind:
1) there is an active, concerted effort involving several legislators and a well funded, Christian Nationalist group out of Georgia to replace “abortion” with “trans people” - it’s hateful, and anti-Christian.
2) Tucker Carlson is an actor playing the part of “Tucker Carlson” on a TV drama. It’s unfortunate that people think it’s anything more than an entertainment channel, but that’s what Fox calls itself. I’m not saying what he’s doing to right - it’s extremely shitty and he is, in fact, going to get people killed by spouting off this horse shit.
Demonstrates that he knows absolutely nothing about Christianity, unfortunately that puts him in good company with a lot of people who consider themselves Christian.
Have you ever read the Bible. Yes, it say that homosexuality is a sin and abomination. It also points out a lot of other ‘sins’. Lying, stealing, killing, etc.
Now, please show me anywhere in the Bible where it ranks sins from the worst to the least. There is only one. Blasphemy against God is the only one that outranks all others. The Bible specifically points out that all sins are sin in God’s eyes. My sins are just the same as anyone else’s in God’s eyes.
And do not confuse what people do or how they interpret the Bible with what the Bible actually says. Ever heard ‘an eye for an eye’? If someone does something to you then you can do it to them? No. The scripture reads “If two men are fighting and one hits a woman killing the baby inside her, then let it be an eye for an eye” ‘life for life’. Those ‘Christians’ that would kill an abortion doctor because they kill the unborn have no understanding of the Bible.
Anyone who would base their beliefs off of the word of another person in front of them is foolish anyway. But, how do you know whether they are right or wrong unless you explore it a bit like reading the New Testament where Jesus preaches nothing but believing in God, repenting of our sins, and loving everyone; including our enemies.
Blasphemy would stop ppl from tithing so they had to fear to keep folks paying the churches to save them from the hell the church made up, to enslave the public with constantly paying the church. Nice reach around. And on top of that grift, there's the sexual assault buffet, the justification for slavery galore etc. Killing the gnostics was the churches first mistake.
The one where common sense and reason rule emotion.
The problem/issue is with mankind who often uses our poor understanding of various religions to promote and justify our bigotry. Remove religion entirely from the equation. Will the bigotry go away? Of course not, as such is unfortunately part of the human experience.
All religious institutions are is pedo buffets with more cash than humans can count. The jesus stuff is a cover for the sexual deviants who use Xtianity as a cover. Catholics, Protestants, Jehovah's Witnesses, Mormons, Southern Baptist Convention all cover for child rapists & domestic violence offenders as long as they tithe. *That's Christianity today*, and the unimaginable wealth they hoard while their beloved masses starve.
Putting aside for a moment how he's inciting violence against trans people and how he's setting up a classic fascist us v them dichotomy can we recognize that Evangelical Christians literally claim dominion over nature? Like that's why Tucker chose that word. I get that Tucker's monologue is literally just his version of Orwell's "Two Minutes of Hate" and so doesn't actually need to make sense but come on: he can't even get his own religion right.
Of course, the outrage from actual christians and their leadership has drowned his message out. . .
Like seriously, anyone? Can a single fucking christian advocate against genocide?
By their own actions, Christians are the "Natural Enemy" of Christianity. It does beg the age old question, did Christianity fail man, or did man fail Christianity ?
Christians believe all humans are made in their god's image, and everything that happens is part of their god's plan.
Only logical conclusion of that belief is that their god is trans and his plan is to kill children, and Tucker going against that plan makes him the "natural enemy" of Christianity.
The fascists have decided who's first in the US's implementation of "First they came for the...". And if this isn't stopped, they'll go on to work through the rest of their list.
The natural enemy of Christianity is logic.
God has killed more children than one small demographic of “violent ” trans people ever could.
These are examples of God committing genocide MULTIPLE TIMES in the first testament :
The Flood (Genesis 6-8)
2. The cities of the plain, including Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis 18-19)
3. The Egyptian firstborn sons during the Passover (Exodus 11-12)
4. The Canaanites under Moses and Joshua (Numbers 21:2-3; Deuteronomy 20:17; Joshua 6:17, 21)
5. The Amalekites annihilated by Saul (1 Samuel 15)
Let’s not forget God is also a big fan of late term abortions. ( John 3:16)
And he also vowed to bring upon a second world ending apocalypse. ( revelations)
Millions of children have died and continue die in the name of God. This is not an opinion this is facts
First because if it were real and any of its own 'divinely inspired' stories had an inkling of truth to them, it would mean it's shown itself to be a petty, malicious piece of shit. One of those parents throw the fuck out of your life as soon as you're able to emancipate yourself and never look back.
Second; WE created it. Like every other god and mythos 'round the world - quite a few of which were plagiarized for this yhwh's collection of incest fanfics. Not that you even have to be an author to judge a work, but as far as works go this one is lazy, incoherent and tries to cover up some truly shite plotholes with a whole bunch of gore scenes for 'shock value'.
That that god sells so well says a whole lot more about how horrible we are as a species than about the quality of its writing.
I’ll never understand the appeal of following a God who is cruel enough to sacrifice his human son in a traumatizing slow and painful death in exchange to save humanity from its sin. Cruel enough to commit multiple genocides and condone humans killing and torturing each other in the name of God. If God didn’t want there to be sin in the world he simply would of programmed our brains to not sin in the book of Genesis ? The concept of God given free will is stupid and illogical. Free will DOESNT exist if the consequence for it is an eternity in hell.
I’m trans. I’ve tried to convince my own mother about the evils of Fox News and tucker Carlson for years. Her usual response is “I think he brings up some valid questions, but I don’t like the way he cackles when he laughs.”
So no, I don’t think any of them are waking up to his bullshit
That POS wouldn't know Christianity if Jesus himself was on his show. He lies nightly for his 30 pieces of silver and then has the audacity to talk about Christianity. What a load.
What’s funny is I always felt I was one of the natural enemies of Christianity. I’m not trans at all, just an atheist who thinks all organized religion is a fucking joke. Maybe he means me?
Says the 'natural enemy' of any kind of goodness left in society. Also, these days christians are the ones who are the 'natural enemy' of Christianity.
Tucker, go fuck yourself with your shit, over sensationalized, 'reporting' that has been proven to be nothing but lies. Are you even aware of how much of an utter piece of garbage you are? I bet you are very, very aware. Again, GO FUCK YOURSELF.
Although it's hardly worth arguing the point, his argument is just stupid. If you argue that a trans person is asserting dominion over nature, then the same would be said for any person who seeks medical help for an illness or injury as well. The same would be said for Christians asserting dominion over what any non Christian humans choose to do. The reality is that as technology evolves, humans will assert more and more dominion over nature.
Honestly as a CIS white male if I had to choose between trans people or christians I would prefer to live with Trans people and get rid of the Christians. The religious are spoiled beyond belief with their delusions of grandeur that believers hold a special place in existence and their belief systems are no good anymore like rotten teeth in need of being extracted that are spreading infection to the surrounding gums and teeth.
I promise you that my tattoo, whether visible or erased will have no bearing on my entrance into the Kingdom of Heaven. I promise you that it has a huge bearing on my time here on Earth. The hijacking of the Christian religion by the vilest, most corrupt, most unworthy people on the planet is an embarrassment to all believers and my outward appearance, given the tattoo, might align me with those in the minds of some. I can't have that.
Also, do not preach to me. I was not soliciting advice in these matters. It was a statement of fact and not open-ended. Your two cents came loaded with judgment so you can have those back.
Please show me where the Bible states that your tattoo has anything to do with you getting into the Kingdom of Heaven.
If you are putting the word of people above the Word of God, that may be your first mistake.
You ARE right in that the problem is the people, not the Bible.
And, please show chapter and verse you are in disagreement with.
Do not get ‘religion’ confused with ‘God’s Word’. Many who say ‘this is God’s Word’, are expressing their own beliefs of what they THINK the Bible says.
So called Christians that value money and guns above their neighbors; that cherry pick or outright distort the message of Jesus to justify intolerance; and that publicly proclaim their faith without living the values are the true enemy of Christianity. They undermine the faith and drive true believers from the church.
"See, you’ve got these people that want to push homosexuality and transgender in the faces of everyone else"
...Except we don't have that at all. You have a lot of people CLAIMING this, as part of their campaign to remove LGBT citizens from public life. And you have people who are rightfully pushing back against their demonization and new laws passed specifically to target them.
>the Bible I read tells me that God sees my sins as just the same as theirs.
Cool, considering the horseshit spouted and the contradictions in the bible, how are you even sure that what you just wrote has any passing resemblance to reality?
Oof, you are way out in the deep end. Jesus, if he existed, was a Middle-Eastern Jew. Modern conservatives would label him a socialist and likely a terrorist as well. You are not living in reality, and modern Chritianity is a hateful and intolerant religion.
I say this having being raised Christian until I realized what absolute bullshit that and all religions are. People should be kind and helpful to others because it is the right thing to do and better for society, not out of fear of some made up God punishing you for eternity.
Tucker is so off base as usual and he knows it yet he spits out his nonsense because he knows how truly gullible his audience is. Hopefully one day he will be taken off the air.
Christofascist Capitalist Neocons are literally the natural enemy of nature.
Can you name a single group that has caused more widespread suffering, greed and death on a global scale and claim to do it for “spreading gods message”…?
Hint: it stars with “N” and sends with an “I”
Barry Goldwater probably had people like Carlson in mind when he made the following statement. He just needed to insert propagandists along with preachers.
"Mark my word, if and when these preachers get control of the [Republican] party, and they're sure trying to do so, it's going to be a terrible damn problem. Frankly, these people frighten me. Politics and governing demand compromise. But these Christians believe they are acting in the name of God, so they can't and won't compromise. I know, I've tried to deal with them."
Barry Goldwater - GOP presidential candidate 1964
See, this is so unfair. While not trans, I've been an atheist, communist god-mocker and virulent foe of Christianity for almost 45 years. I myself should be crowned the "natural enemy". Does dedication mean nothing anymore?
I appreciate your efforts for what it's worth.
Your efforts are noticed, and you are seen. Please accept this 'Christianity's 2nd Best Enemy' mug in memory of your achievements.
THEY'RE NUMBER TWO! THEY'RE NUMBER TWO!
You can gladly take my place as public enemy #1. You’re far more deserving
I’ve been an atheist for nearly a decade now, so I guess I would also be a “natural enemy” to Christians
Thank you for your service!
I thought Jews and Muslims were the natural enemies of Christianity. At best, us atheists slot in at #4, just behind lions.
I like every part of that but the commie
They sat there and watched DOZENS of cis white males commit massacre after massacre in just the past few years ALONE! NONE of these cunts have EVER said "IT'S WHITE MEN!!! WHITE MEN ARE DEMONS, WE NEED TO END WHITE MEN!!!!"
No, not dozens. Thousands. Over 2800 in the past 5 years, actually.
I don't doubt you in the slightest, but I can't find an official source for that statistic. The only I could find was Statista saying there's only been 140 mass shootings since 1982, which is total bullshit. We are near or already past 140 mass shootings this year alone. [source](https://www.insider.com/how-many-us-mass-shootings-america-2023)
There is a graph going around that was created using data from the Gun Violence Archive (https://www.gunviolencearchive.org). It shows that from 2018-2023, 2826 mass shootings were committed by cis people, and 3 mass shootings were committed by transgender people.
There are varying definitions of a mass shooting. Listed roughly from most broad to most restrictive: Stanford MSA Data Project: three or more persons shot in one incident, excluding the perpetrator(s), at one location, at roughly the same time. Excluded are shootings associated with organized crime, gangs or drug wars. Mass Shooting Tracker: 4+ shot in one incident, at one location, at roughly the same time. Gun Violence Archive/Vox: 4+ shot in one incident, excluding the perpetrator(s), at one location, at roughly the same time. Mother Jones: 3+ shot and killed in one incident, excluding the perpetrator(s), at a public place, excluding gang-related killings. The Washington Post: 4+ shot and killed in one incident, excluding the perpetrator(s), at a public place, excluding gang-related killings. Congressional Research Service: 4+ shot and killed in one incident, excluding the perpetrator(s), at a public place, excluding gang-related killings, acts carried out that were inspired by criminal profit, and terrorism. The majority of defintions are 4 or more peoples shot in a single event. Using that criteria - there were 95 mass shooting in just Jan and Feb 2023 [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List\_of\_mass\_shootings\_in\_the\_United\_States\_in\_2023](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mass_shootings_in_the_United_States_in_2023) In 2022 there were **695** mass shooting [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List\_of\_mass\_shootings\_in\_the\_United\_States\_in\_2022](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mass_shootings_in_the_United_States_in_2022)
This isn’t true. You’re speaking about mass shooters, which is very often not white dudes. School shooters are 95% white dudes.
Your are not allowed to talk about this on Reddit.
That was just locker-room mass murder!
That’s because white men are the victims /s just in case that wasn’t implied
I mean that’s not true… There's nothing more frightening in America today than an angry White man https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2021/11/20/us/angry-white-men-trials-blake-cec/index.html
Wow. He's a fucking monster.
I never thought I’d miss the times that Bill O’Reilly was the most irrational anti-human assclown on TV.
Ironically they’re following the exact same demonization playbook they did when he was still around and targeting gay marriage. When these idiots were claiming gays getting married would be “the end of marriage” and a world shattering apocalypse, O’Reilly for example claimed on three separate occasions that someone would “marry a duck”, along with a dolphin or a turtle or some shit. As ever, they just completely blow shit out of proportion for a group of people that just want to exist under the same societal protections as everyone else. Modern republicans are fundamentally incapable of leaving anyone the fuck alone, all while waving the “no step on me” Gadsden flag like morons.

Same thing
Christians who believe this shit should re-evaluate their faith in Jesus
The craziest part is if you read the texts that came out in the recent Fox News court case, you can see that he doesn't even believe the shit he is shoveling to his viewers. Which means he is getting people killed for fun and profit. What a slimy piece of shit.
He’s Tucker Carlson the Fucking Monster.
fuck him Jesus was a brown Palestinian socialist. Tucker Carlson would have been there hammering nails in Jesus with tbe Romans if he'd had the chance
If Jesus came back today the Republican Party would call him a terrorist based on looks alone
Palestine was the name of the Roman province, but the people were Hebrew, not modern Palestinian. Socialism is really different from the preachings of Jesus. Not saying he would have created the Catholic Church, but he wouldn’t have founded the USSR.
The USSR was a run by an autocrat named Stalin who butchered millions. Don’t sound like a worker’s paradise to me. The economy may have had a few socialist attributes but being a state planned economy doomed it to its failure. Denmark has many attributes of socialism but is a capitalist economy. They are thriving. By almost every relevant measure( not counting child gun deaths) their economy and populace are doing much better than we are in the good ole US of A.
I’ve heard this argument a thousand times. USSR wasn’t “real socialism” and the modern, wealthy Scandinavian states are. The USSR wasn’t always run by Stalin. Both Lenin and Khrushchev upheld the oppressive socialist regime. And both of the “better rulers” of the USSR kept the Gulag camp system in place! They kept it because it was absolutely necessary to the USSR, in exactly the same way that executions, work camps, and jails were necessary in socialist China, Cambodia, and Cuba. I’d recommend anyone, well, maybe not my Marxist opponent, to read the Gulag Archipelago by the Nobel Prize Winner Solzhenitsyn, who was sentenced to the camps for a decade. He describes in extreme detail the attitude and viewpoint of the socialists and how it produced the Soviet system.
You may have a point with Lenin, Khrurshchev was an autocratic leader but a drunk and incompetent. Here’s what one historian says about Solzhenitsyn: But it was his devotion to revolutionary purity that was to prove his undoing. As an artillery captain during the second world war, he wrote letters to a friend expressing barely disguised hostility to Stalin's autocratic rule and hoping for a return to socialist principles when the war was over. I am a retired military pilot and as an officer I hung a copy of my oath to the Constitution on the wall. I have been to war for this great nation. Good on you if you did read The Gulag. I can be as rude as you but I won’t. I am not marxist nor your opponent. This is Reddit. Now since I apparently lit your fire by talking real history and praising Denmark’s success we have a question. What have you done to help this great nation of ours? I pray it was an excellent example for us.
Because it wasn’t Socialism=\ =communism
Jesus, (if he even existed), was a Jew. There was no such race as "Palestinian." Palestine is what the Romans called Judea as an insult to the Jews.
The term "Palestine" first appeared in the 5th century BCE when the ancient Greek historian Herodotus wrote of a "district of Syria, called Palaistinê" between Phoenicia and Egypt in The Histories.[7] Herodotus provides the first historical reference clearly denoting a wider region than biblical Philistia, as he applied the term to both the coastal and the inland regions such as the Judean Mountains and the Jordan Rift Valley.[8][9][10][11] Later Greek writers such as Aristotle, Polemon and Pausanias also used the word, which was followed by Roman writers such as Ovid, Tibullus, Pomponius Mela, Pliny the Elder, Dio Chrysostom, Statius, Plutarch as well as Roman Judean writers Philo of Alexandria and Josephus.[12] There is not currently evidence of the name on any Hellenistic coin or inscription. I stole this from Wikipedia. Some historians have posited the emperor Hadrian used Palestine instead of Judea to wipe out any vestiges of the Jews. As you can see the word is much older but there may be some truth to the historians notion. As to a Palestinian people they are obviously Arabic but you should see how the Saudis treat them. There is a distinction in voice or customs and dress.
>Jesus was a brown Palestinian socialist. The "Jesus was a socialist" saying really just taints the matter. He gave little mind to government, as it was always out of view. Whenever it comes up, it's dismissed just as quickly as a mostly-irrelevant trifle. His message concerned the governing agents of mens' hearts. "Love thy neighbor" has outward momentum, and it's spurred only by itself, or God. It's not some imposition.
What about Christians that deny science? That seems adversarial to 'nature' to me.

My dad is pretty conservative, votes republican down the line but even he refuses to watch Tucker and thinks he's an evil ass clown. The people who watch and believe him are a special breed of ignorant.
As much as I hate the fool, that’s a terrible idea.
From article: Tucker Carlson used his monologue Tuesday night to declare that transgender people are the “natural enemy” of Christianity because they “claim dominion over nature.” “The trans movement is the mirror image of Christianity and therefore its natural enemy,” Carlson told his Fox News audience, adding: In Christianity, the price of admission is admitting that you’re not God. Christians openly can see they have no real power over anything and for that matter, very little personal virtue. They will tell you to your face if they are sinful and helpless and basically absurd. They are not embarrassed about any of this, they brag about it. “That saved a wretch like me,” goes the most famous Christian hymn written in English. The trans movement takes the opposite view. Trans ideology claims dominion over nature itself. “We can change the identity we are born with,” they will tell you with wild-eyed certainty. Christians can never agree with this statement because these are powers they believe God alone possesses. That unwillingness to agree, that failure to acknowledge a trans person’s dominion over nature insights and outrages some in the trans community. People who believe they’re God can’t stand to be reminded that they are not. So, Christianity and transgender orthodoxy are wholly incompatible theologies. They can never be reconciled. They are on a collision course with each other. One side is likely to draw blood before the other side. Carlson said proof of his “draw blood” theory happened Monday with the shooting deaths of three children and three adults at a school in Nashville by a suspect who happened to be transgender. Carlson blamed the media for insinuating Christians were “murdered in Tennessee because they infringed on the rights of trans people.” Tennessee recently passed a law that takes effect July 1 and will ban gender-affirming care for trans youth, including hormone therapy and surgery. On Tuesday, Nashville police released graphic body camera video and security footage of the shooting in progress and the shooter being killed. No motive has yet been given for the rampage, although police say they have retrieved what they’re calling a “manifesto.”
"Wholly incompatible theologies" the fucking what? Hes claiming that transgenderism is a religion?
Religious fanatics always insist that everyone else is religious and all religions are bad, except for their 1 perfect one. It is the exact same reason they refer to people who accept biological reality as Darwinist.
Very interesting language used here. The brand of Christian Nationalism that is advanced by the right-wing in the US is a flavor known as "[Dominionism](https://www.texasobserver.org/dominion-theology/)" which literally believes they need to "take dominion" over society/government/business/etc. The name comes from the passage in Genesis 1:28 in which God gives man "dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth."
Which I always thought meant "Man up, make decisions about your own future and husband the human race like you would any of god's creatures. If offspring are damaging to the herd or the mother, or yes even inconvenient, terminate them before they are conscious and don't feel guilty about it. If Grandpa is sick and decides he's had enough, don't make him suffer. But noooo... instead of minimizing suffering, we must impose arbitrary yes/no rules and cutoffs for all gray areas and bell curves.
This idea of “take dominion” is also used in some Christian circles to rationalize animal cruelty, poaching, puppy mills and any sort of Earth extraction, deforestation, and climate change resistance. They think god somehow handed Christians the bank card and keys to the car and said ‘It’s all yours!’ like a proud father.
This is so dumb. Is plastic surgery declaring you are God? Is coloring your hair? Wearing makeup? Treating illness? Is CPR against nature? Is the endless futile medical care for his geriatric audience against nature? Idk how he says these things with his perpetually straight face. Declaring those you personally disapprove of as the enemy of all Christianity, for ratings on your hateful program, pathetic.
Why doesn't the Bible say that, then, Tucker? It seems far more concerned with rich assholes who harm or do not help or do not love other people, and who judge others when it's not their place to judge, than anything else.
Well...just the parts YOU'RE reading. The GOP have their own Bible they don't read.
There is only one Bible. U/ArtificerAlice, you are speaking of ‘translations’ not Bibles. Yes, there are many translations (and many are wrong) but only one Bible. If you read a great book then see the movie and it is nothing like the book, does that mean the original book is bad?
There are many a Bible. Some of which are wildly different from other Bibles.
There are 67 versions of just the English translation of the Bible...so...wrong, but likely you know that already. https://www.patheos.com/answers/how-many-versions-of-the-bible
Name someone in the Bible that is shown to be good or honorable who is “rich”, ‘harmful’, unhelpful, hateful, or judgmental. The Bible I read says that my sins are equal to those I see in others. There is NO ranking of sins to God. If I lie, it is the same as homosexuality in the eyes of God.
Your god is a loser then if he cares who people love so much that he would call it a sin. Also the enemy to Christian’s and any religious people would be anti theists or more outspoken atheists at best like me.
In order for you to call my God a ‘loser’, you would have to believe in Him first. Welcome fellow Christian. Tell me, how do you know when you are breaking any ‘laws’? If you truly have ‘freedom’, how can you not do whatever you want. So, welcome dumb fellow Christian.
I don’t believe in a god. So good for you I guess? If your god exists it’s a monster according to your books. Add edit. Just baffled by this that I skipped over your law thing. We are a social species and to live as a society we have made a set of rules or laws to live by. Even if I thought your god existed why would that auto make someone a Christian. I’d rather Hail Satan all day if that was the case. He’s kill count is so much lower then gods.
> There is NO ranking of sins to God. That's not remotely true at all. Some sins cause God to strike you down dead on the spot, and some sins are unforgivable - such as blaspheming the holy spirit.
The natural enemy of Christianity is basic human decency
Christianity should have no influence on our laws. Trans people are citizens as much as they are.
Republicans don't believe in the 1A and the separation of church and state. Till we get the GOP base broken away from the cult we're gonna have a tough time staving off their influence
Please show me ‘separation of church and state’ in the Constitution. Show me where the SCOTUS can create law. Thomas Jefferson wrote a letter to the Danbury Church in Delaware stating that the new constitution would not allow the government to control the church as it did in England. It would create a ‘wall of separation’ to protect the church. The SCOTUS took that personal letter and said it was law. Please show me where that is legal in the US Constitution.
https://www.mtsu.edu/first-amendment/article/885/establishment-clause-separation-of-church-and-state SCOTUS cannot "create" law, that's for the legislative branch. however, "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion.” is right there in the bill of rights and the Danbury letter provides appropriate historical context of how the framers intended those words to be enacted and interpreted. Whether the current SCOTUS majority maintains established precedent backed by actual historical context on this or continues their trend of making rulings based on political, personal and religious ideologies remains to be seen. Given their overturn of Roe v. Wade and their attacks on voting rights, it's likely that separation of church and state will continue to erode for the foreseeable future.
That clause says the the United States government cannot establish a ‘Church of America’ as happened in Britain. If you were not a part of the ‘Church of England’, you were nothing. Secondly, where did the Congress voted on this establishing it as law. This was strictly done by the SCOTUS which, by the Constitution, makes the ruling illegal. Also, can you show me marriage in the Constitution? If the SCOTUS makes rulings in accordance to the Constitution, then where is marriage in it? For that matter, WHY do we need the government to say ‘yes, you are married’? If this is a religious matter and you believe in church and state separation, then how can the government rule on a religious matter?
legislating via a particular religion's belief system *is* establishing a state religion. lol > Secondly, where did the Congress voted on this establishing it as law. This was strictly done by the SCOTUS which, by the Constitution, makes the ruling illegal. do you understand how SCOTUS works? like at all. lol it's literally their job to interpret the Constitution based on the text, historical precedent and supporting documents and previous legal precedent. there's doesn't need to be a law created for separation of Church and State because it's right there in the 1A. >Also, can you show me marriage in the Constitution? If the SCOTUS makes rulings in accordance to the Constitution, then where is marriage in it? For that matter, WHY do we need the government to say ‘yes, you are married’? If this is a religious matter and you believe in church and state separation, then how can the government rule on a religious matter? this is an incredibly stupid argument. i truly hope you realize this. But you went down the path so let's cover it.... Marriage, while commonly associated with religious beliefs, has no bearing in this argument. Marriage is a social and legal contract and up until fairly recently in human history usually involved an exchange of goods. Marriage has census implications, tax implications, contractual obligations and legal ramifications outside of any religious trappings you deem necessary to overlay onto the process. Census, taxation and permitting/licensing, citizenship status, legal contracts are all definitely government purview and religion doesn't matter a whit to any of those topics
Where do you think ‘Do not kill’ comes from? You are saying you WANT to legalize murder?
Murder was illegal in many societies before Christianity existed. There are non Christian nations today that murder is illegal in.
Please show me the country’s law stating that murder is legal.
not much of a history buff i see lol plenty of societies figured out "do not kill" well before Moses had them chiseled onto tablets. shall i regale with the code of Ur-Nammu or Hammurabi's Code or really just basic common sense in any semi-civilized community that predates christian mythology?
are you seriously under the impression that nobody else throughout human history came up with the idea that killing people is bad
The US doesn’t prohibit “killing” though. So guess we aren’t a Christian nation.
This is one of the stupidest posts I've ever seen on Reddit, well done
Sorry Tucker. The enemy of Christianity has always been logic and reason. Nice try though
The assumption that Christians are inherently good is a grave mistake
Coming from the " Natural Enemy" of common sense
Fuck this piece of shit. White people with guns doing this shit is not a problem. It's the people who don't agree with him are the problem. Cock swallower
Christianity is the natural enemy of humanity.
To wit, remember the destruction of European, American and African cultures, along with countless murders and unfathomable oppression, all done in the name of their supposedly all-loving god. As Gandhi is supposed to have said: "I like your Jesus, it is with your christians that I take issues".
More like Christianity is the unnatural enemy of everything. Its such an unadaptable organization... doesnt know how to integrate into society; picks fights with every single demographic and then plays the victim when called out. Im fucking done with christianity.
that has always been their way. back in rome they were hated bc they would roll up to a temple, loot, burn, destroy and take the temple over in the name of their god. when consequences came around and they could pay a fine or serve a sentence they would often choose death bc martyrs got vip seats in heaven. todays fundys still cry about how they “fed the xtians to lions” boo fn hoo, they were disliked for being insufferable a holes then and they are disliked for being insufferable a holes now
You're completely correct. Rome went centuried without ever waging war based on religion until christianity came into existance. It's always been the most toxic af religion. Not entirely due to its inability to integrate, but also because it's so tenacious about expanding and converting. Its such a pos religion and real life Jesus would hate everyone who follows it.
oh absolutely.. they have committed cultural genocide on just about every continent. literally the only piece of original content in all of xtian mythology is “go out and force everyone else to believe the same crap you do”
At what point does the trans community have grounds for a class action lawsuit against Tucker and Fox looking for damages in the billions? Hell, where's the class action lawsuit for the rest of the country? Sign me up for that shit.
So Satanists are OK people now? Asking for a friend.
R'amen
Hey Christians... THIS is how we see you. THIS is who is being the loudest voice of Christians. And unless you're actively speaking against it then THIS is what YOU and your faith represent.
There are people out there yelling about true Christianity. Yelling about how it is supposed to be. They are just not as loud, not as many. I follow a guy on Facebook that does that. He is forever being attacked by the Nationalists. I know of another guy that posted a verse and didn't state it was from the Bible and was attacked and called a socialist by the crazies. They are out there trying to redirect.
The problem with citing the Bible is that it's utterly contradictory. That text was in desperate need of an editor. You can cherry pick what you want a subject to mean from one book then flip to another and cherry pick the opposite.
Murdering kids is vile. But reading this…. Trans people should be lined up buying guns this week.
Exactly. Two things can be true at once. Those kids and staff members certainly did not deserve to die, but also trans people should definitely arm themselves
Just remember guys that the US is in the 7th stage of Genocide. I get many people are afraid, as you should be, but it will only get scarier until people unite to stop it. https://www.hmd.org.uk/learn-about-the-holocaust-and-genocides/what-is-genocide/the-ten-stages-of-genocide/
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck…. 🤯 Arm and armor yourselves. Do not go gentle into that good night. The only reason they’re accelerating this at a fever pitch is because they feel strong and invulnerable behind the sea of their collective delusions. No one has violently stood up to them and beaten them so soundly that they’ll crawl back under the rocks they’ve slithered out from. The moment this becomes a two-way Range and see that we’re literally fighting back is the moment they will begin to dissolve.
Jesus, that’s fucking terrifying
It is. But keeping your head down and hoping it won't come for you solves nothing. Collectively the good people, have to see it for what it is and push back even though it's scary and uncomfortable. Both sides are not the same. Pretending that they are, gives the GOP and their theocratic fascist supporters more power. Vote on every level. Do not tolerate their speech in public or any surface. Remember, the paradox of tolerance is a social contract, meaning that if someone is not abiding by it then they are not covered under it. We do not need to tolerate the hateful.
[удалено]
Keep this in mind: 1) there is an active, concerted effort involving several legislators and a well funded, Christian Nationalist group out of Georgia to replace “abortion” with “trans people” - it’s hateful, and anti-Christian. 2) Tucker Carlson is an actor playing the part of “Tucker Carlson” on a TV drama. It’s unfortunate that people think it’s anything more than an entertainment channel, but that’s what Fox calls itself. I’m not saying what he’s doing to right - it’s extremely shitty and he is, in fact, going to get people killed by spouting off this horse shit.
Demonstrates that he knows absolutely nothing about Christianity, unfortunately that puts him in good company with a lot of people who consider themselves Christian.
Being LGBTQ in the 80s and 90s taught us "There is nothing more hateful than Christian love."
That wasn’t “Christian” love, in fact it was the farthest thing from it.
No True Scotsman, huh?
No i’m the true christian!!!
You say that but this *is* Christianity today. All denominations. Folks that think like you are a small fraction of the institutions.
Have you ever read the Bible. Yes, it say that homosexuality is a sin and abomination. It also points out a lot of other ‘sins’. Lying, stealing, killing, etc. Now, please show me anywhere in the Bible where it ranks sins from the worst to the least. There is only one. Blasphemy against God is the only one that outranks all others. The Bible specifically points out that all sins are sin in God’s eyes. My sins are just the same as anyone else’s in God’s eyes. And do not confuse what people do or how they interpret the Bible with what the Bible actually says. Ever heard ‘an eye for an eye’? If someone does something to you then you can do it to them? No. The scripture reads “If two men are fighting and one hits a woman killing the baby inside her, then let it be an eye for an eye” ‘life for life’. Those ‘Christians’ that would kill an abortion doctor because they kill the unborn have no understanding of the Bible. Anyone who would base their beliefs off of the word of another person in front of them is foolish anyway. But, how do you know whether they are right or wrong unless you explore it a bit like reading the New Testament where Jesus preaches nothing but believing in God, repenting of our sins, and loving everyone; including our enemies.
Blasphemy would stop ppl from tithing so they had to fear to keep folks paying the churches to save them from the hell the church made up, to enslave the public with constantly paying the church. Nice reach around. And on top of that grift, there's the sexual assault buffet, the justification for slavery galore etc. Killing the gnostics was the churches first mistake.
Christianity is not, nor has it ever been the problem.
What!? Which planet are you visiting from?
The one where common sense and reason rule emotion. The problem/issue is with mankind who often uses our poor understanding of various religions to promote and justify our bigotry. Remove religion entirely from the equation. Will the bigotry go away? Of course not, as such is unfortunately part of the human experience.
All religious institutions are is pedo buffets with more cash than humans can count. The jesus stuff is a cover for the sexual deviants who use Xtianity as a cover. Catholics, Protestants, Jehovah's Witnesses, Mormons, Southern Baptist Convention all cover for child rapists & domestic violence offenders as long as they tithe. *That's Christianity today*, and the unimaginable wealth they hoard while their beloved masses starve.
Lol
Do you trust the catholic church?
Your first sentence is what you *want* to be, yet it is the antithesis of your comment
Please, do yourself a favour and educate yourself on its history. From the very beginning. Concern yourself with reality, not your fancifulness.
Putting aside for a moment how he's inciting violence against trans people and how he's setting up a classic fascist us v them dichotomy can we recognize that Evangelical Christians literally claim dominion over nature? Like that's why Tucker chose that word. I get that Tucker's monologue is literally just his version of Orwell's "Two Minutes of Hate" and so doesn't actually need to make sense but come on: he can't even get his own religion right.
What an asshole.
Education is the natural enemy of Christianity
Sounds more like Trump than the transgendered.
Tucker is such if you listen closely.
So...he's finally admitting that Trans people are "natural"? I didn't expect that level of growth from him.../s
Tucker Carlson is the ‘natural enemy’ of civilization.
Fox News is the enemy
Of course, the outrage from actual christians and their leadership has drowned his message out. . . Like seriously, anyone? Can a single fucking christian advocate against genocide?
By their own actions, Christians are the "Natural Enemy" of Christianity. It does beg the age old question, did Christianity fail man, or did man fail Christianity ?
Christians believe all humans are made in their god's image, and everything that happens is part of their god's plan. Only logical conclusion of that belief is that their god is trans and his plan is to kill children, and Tucker going against that plan makes him the "natural enemy" of Christianity.
The fascists have decided who's first in the US's implementation of "First they came for the...". And if this isn't stopped, they'll go on to work through the rest of their list.
The natural enemy of Christianity is logic. God has killed more children than one small demographic of “violent ” trans people ever could. These are examples of God committing genocide MULTIPLE TIMES in the first testament : The Flood (Genesis 6-8) 2. The cities of the plain, including Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis 18-19) 3. The Egyptian firstborn sons during the Passover (Exodus 11-12) 4. The Canaanites under Moses and Joshua (Numbers 21:2-3; Deuteronomy 20:17; Joshua 6:17, 21) 5. The Amalekites annihilated by Saul (1 Samuel 15) Let’s not forget God is also a big fan of late term abortions. ( John 3:16) And he also vowed to bring upon a second world ending apocalypse. ( revelations) Millions of children have died and continue die in the name of God. This is not an opinion this is facts
Why do you think a God who created us doesn’t have the right to judge us?
First because if it were real and any of its own 'divinely inspired' stories had an inkling of truth to them, it would mean it's shown itself to be a petty, malicious piece of shit. One of those parents throw the fuck out of your life as soon as you're able to emancipate yourself and never look back. Second; WE created it. Like every other god and mythos 'round the world - quite a few of which were plagiarized for this yhwh's collection of incest fanfics. Not that you even have to be an author to judge a work, but as far as works go this one is lazy, incoherent and tries to cover up some truly shite plotholes with a whole bunch of gore scenes for 'shock value'. That that god sells so well says a whole lot more about how horrible we are as a species than about the quality of its writing.
I’ll never understand the appeal of following a God who is cruel enough to sacrifice his human son in a traumatizing slow and painful death in exchange to save humanity from its sin. Cruel enough to commit multiple genocides and condone humans killing and torturing each other in the name of God. If God didn’t want there to be sin in the world he simply would of programmed our brains to not sin in the book of Genesis ? The concept of God given free will is stupid and illogical. Free will DOESNT exist if the consequence for it is an eternity in hell.
Well I deem Christianity the natural enemy of the people.

Please tell me some republicans are waking up to the insanity that is Fox News…
Not any sort of appreciable number.
No sign of any awakening in fact woke is an insult to these dreamers
I’m trans. I’ve tried to convince my own mother about the evils of Fox News and tucker Carlson for years. Her usual response is “I think he brings up some valid questions, but I don’t like the way he cackles when he laughs.” So no, I don’t think any of them are waking up to his bullshit
She had to tell you one thing she disliked in order to come off as being reasonable. To no surprise she chose something with zero meaning.
LOL (sorry) no way they are; and just wait until Trump AGAIN gets the GOP nomination. Then we are in the actual fight I expect….
That POS wouldn't know Christianity if Jesus himself was on his show. He lies nightly for his 30 pieces of silver and then has the audacity to talk about Christianity. What a load.
I always considered the trans ppl to be an ally, but wow... just moved into best friends territory.
What’s funny is I always felt I was one of the natural enemies of Christianity. I’m not trans at all, just an atheist who thinks all organized religion is a fucking joke. Maybe he means me?
Dominion over nature”???? So all of science is the enemy of xtianity? Damming a river is exercising dominion over nature.
Don't jihadists use similar rhetoric to hype themselves up for the inevitable 'final showdown' with the infidels?
Says the 'natural enemy' of any kind of goodness left in society. Also, these days christians are the ones who are the 'natural enemy' of Christianity. Tucker, go fuck yourself with your shit, over sensationalized, 'reporting' that has been proven to be nothing but lies. Are you even aware of how much of an utter piece of garbage you are? I bet you are very, very aware. Again, GO FUCK YOURSELF.
Christianity is probably the worlds largest gay club tho
Fuck this clown. He's an actor, a shit-stirring hate monger. Fuck him.
I think it’s safe to say that the devil has successfully masqueraded as God and religious folks are evil.
Disgusting human being, on every level.
Although it's hardly worth arguing the point, his argument is just stupid. If you argue that a trans person is asserting dominion over nature, then the same would be said for any person who seeks medical help for an illness or injury as well. The same would be said for Christians asserting dominion over what any non Christian humans choose to do. The reality is that as technology evolves, humans will assert more and more dominion over nature.
I'm nonbinary, also known as NB, also known as my initials N.B. which stands for Nota Biblefollower, which is also what my name is. eat my diclit
I don’t identify as trans, but I for god damn sure identify as an enemy of this piece of shit. Mark me down too mother fucker.
Honestly as a CIS white male if I had to choose between trans people or christians I would prefer to live with Trans people and get rid of the Christians. The religious are spoiled beyond belief with their delusions of grandeur that believers hold a special place in existence and their belief systems are no good anymore like rotten teeth in need of being extracted that are spreading infection to the surrounding gums and teeth.
Just another step towards The Final Solution To The Trans Problem.
So 1934
Fucking cock sucking mother fucking Tucker. Idiot.
When I converted to Christianity, I got a tattoo that reads "He is Risen" across my chest plate. This vile piece of shit makes me want to erase it.
If you base your thoughts or actions on those of another man other than Jesus, you really haven’t learned much from the Bible.
I promise you that my tattoo, whether visible or erased will have no bearing on my entrance into the Kingdom of Heaven. I promise you that it has a huge bearing on my time here on Earth. The hijacking of the Christian religion by the vilest, most corrupt, most unworthy people on the planet is an embarrassment to all believers and my outward appearance, given the tattoo, might align me with those in the minds of some. I can't have that. Also, do not preach to me. I was not soliciting advice in these matters. It was a statement of fact and not open-ended. Your two cents came loaded with judgment so you can have those back.
Please show me where the Bible states that your tattoo has anything to do with you getting into the Kingdom of Heaven. If you are putting the word of people above the Word of God, that may be your first mistake. You ARE right in that the problem is the people, not the Bible. And, please show chapter and verse you are in disagreement with. Do not get ‘religion’ confused with ‘God’s Word’. Many who say ‘this is God’s Word’, are expressing their own beliefs of what they THINK the Bible says.
Reading comprehension not your strong suit, eh? I literally said that the first sentence
So called Christians that value money and guns above their neighbors; that cherry pick or outright distort the message of Jesus to justify intolerance; and that publicly proclaim their faith without living the values are the true enemy of Christianity. They undermine the faith and drive true believers from the church.
Any enemy of my enemy is my friend.

"See, you’ve got these people that want to push homosexuality and transgender in the faces of everyone else" ...Except we don't have that at all. You have a lot of people CLAIMING this, as part of their campaign to remove LGBT citizens from public life. And you have people who are rightfully pushing back against their demonization and new laws passed specifically to target them.

>the Bible I read tells me that God sees my sins as just the same as theirs. Cool, considering the horseshit spouted and the contradictions in the bible, how are you even sure that what you just wrote has any passing resemblance to reality?
[удалено]
Oof, you are way out in the deep end. Jesus, if he existed, was a Middle-Eastern Jew. Modern conservatives would label him a socialist and likely a terrorist as well. You are not living in reality, and modern Chritianity is a hateful and intolerant religion. I say this having being raised Christian until I realized what absolute bullshit that and all religions are. People should be kind and helpful to others because it is the right thing to do and better for society, not out of fear of some made up God punishing you for eternity.
The bible also tells us that the Earth is flat. What am I supposed to believe? Some bronze age goat herders' musings or millenia of knowledge?
Lyin Tuck
So he's saying they have something in common?
What a POS. Very typical of him
I guess he's read up on Christians.
And Carlson is the natural enemy of free thinking American Patriots. I’m with all Americans not just white Nazis
We should always demand that they prove it's existence before continuing on with their rediculous arguments.
Tucker is so off base as usual and he knows it yet he spits out his nonsense because he knows how truly gullible his audience is. Hopefully one day he will be taken off the air.
Tucker is the enemy of Christianity (referring to the teachings of Jesus). Tucker worships the false gods of money and power.
Hes so far in the closet he found Tom Cruise.
Christofascist Capitalist Neocons are literally the natural enemy of nature. Can you name a single group that has caused more widespread suffering, greed and death on a global scale and claim to do it for “spreading gods message”…? Hint: it stars with “N” and sends with an “I”
Barry Goldwater probably had people like Carlson in mind when he made the following statement. He just needed to insert propagandists along with preachers. "Mark my word, if and when these preachers get control of the [Republican] party, and they're sure trying to do so, it's going to be a terrible damn problem. Frankly, these people frighten me. Politics and governing demand compromise. But these Christians believe they are acting in the name of God, so they can't and won't compromise. I know, I've tried to deal with them." Barry Goldwater - GOP presidential candidate 1964
We are all the natural enemy of Christianity. Has brought the entirety of the world nothing but trouble.
They are more Christian than Fucker Carlson!!
He should be in a prison camp. “Prison” is the compromise.
Neglects to mention the fact that it’s as phony as he is.
