In reply to the discussion: Qanon is evidence that we cannot trust any writings about Jesus or other religions [View all]TigressDem
(5,125 posts)I've talked to people from many backgrounds. Atheists, Pagans, Druids, Wiccans, many brands of Christians, from Catholic to Baptists to Lutherns (who have like a hundred varieties themselves) to Methodists. Hinduists and Buddahists and Unitarians.
People are people. They can be pissy, but they can get over it too.
Sometimes the people I've argued with the most here (and I was a big poster long ago and had lengthy discussions because I don't back down much, my count and history got purged when I was away for a long time) those people finally said, "Well, if most Christians were like you I wouldn't have a problem with them."
It was bad enough feeling we had to apologize to the World for *ush Jr. At least he came to Biden's inauguration and said something that made sense. First time I ever agreed with the man. "If we'd just treat others the way we want to be treated, the world would be a better place." Or something similar. I know where he got it from.
But just because the KKK and their ilk in Qanon wrap themselves up in religion, doesn't mean all Christians are like that or everything about Christianity is wrong by association.
