    most religious people aren’t religious at all and dont worship anything specific. they just believe what they’re told. i know that sounds like something an edgy teenager would say but i believe its true and thats why you have a bunch of other denominations acting sad about it. they probably think he was their religious leader as well

      I’d say this mostly applies to the west.

      In American Christianity….you ARE the God. Sin begins and ends at “weirdness” not any actual evil.

        honestly not sure. my family is muslim (living in iran)and despite what western media claims most of them are muslim in the same way people here are christian. (they were born into it and have some weird reflex to defend it and claim it while doing none of the legwork to actually know what it is)

    'Cause, given Christianity’s cultural decline, the Protestants have realized they need Catholics on their side until they can reimpose cultural hegemony by force.

    We don’t have enough fancy people in robes over here, it’s actually a huge component of the insecurity of Americans that we don’t really have the cultural history of the rest of the world ( since we violently genocided the existing one we found when we got here )

    As Lincoln proved, we need more Big Hats

        The average treatlerite amerikkkan and 40k ork Boyz have a lot in common. They both love dakka, both love warfare, both love giant loud smoke spewing vehicles, both hate anyone/thing that isn’t orky/murican, both follow the biggest loudest guy they can find, the similarities are endless

        Edit: Amerikkkans are more driven by malice than orkz, also orkz are braver and just wanna krump in a good fight and Amerikkkans get scared when they can’t call in a tactical UberEats delivery

    There are people on this very website mourning the demise of the head of Pedophile Inc. I know most Hexbear users don’t read theory but damn does it shine through on some days
