WTF is a “Faith Office” and why didn’t DOGE cut it
Sounds cool Paula… Please shut the fuck up then.
If you believe women came from a rib, then you must accept that women were meant to be as equals to men. They aren’t made from foot bones. They aren’t made from our skull. It’s ribs. Why would you draw out women from the center and have her stand beside Adam if you wanted women to be slaves?

Read one chapter further in Genesis. Women’s subordination to man is a punishment resulting from Eve’s role in original sin.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Original_sin
Original sin (Latin: peccatum originale) in Christian theology refers to the condition of sinfulness that all humans share, which is inherited from Adam and Eve due to the Fall, involving the loss of original righteousness and the distortion of the Image of God. The biblical basis for the belief is generally found in Genesis 3 (the story of the expulsion of Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden), and in texts such as Psalm 51:5 (“I was brought forth in iniquity, and in sin did my mother conceive me”) and Romans 5:12–21 (“Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all people, because all sinned”).
The Fall
Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?”
The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, but God did say, ‘You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.’”
“You will not certainly die,” the serpent said to the woman. “For God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”
When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it. Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.
Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the Lord God as he was walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid from the Lord God among the trees of the garden. But the Lord God called to the man, “Where are you?”
He answered, “I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid.”
And he said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?”
The man said, “The woman you put here with me—she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it.”
Then the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?”
The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”
So the Lord God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this,
“Cursed are you above all livestock
and all wild animals!
You will crawl on your belly
and you will eat dust
all the days of your life.And I will put enmity
between you and the woman,
and between your offspring and hers;
he will crush your head,
and you will strike his heel.”To the woman he said,
“I will make your pains in childbearing very severe;
with painful labor you will give birth to children.
Your desire will be for your husband,
and he will rule over you.”To Adam he said, “Because you listened to your wife and ate fruit from the tree about which I commanded you, ‘You must not eat from it,’
“Cursed is the ground because of you;
through painful toil you will eat food from it
all the days of your life.It will produce thorns and thistles for you,
and you will eat the plants of the field.By the sweat of your brow
you will eat your food
until you return to the ground,
since from it you were taken;
for dust you are
and to dust you will return.”Adam named his wife Eve, because she would become the mother of all the living.
The Lord God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife and clothed them. And the Lord God said, “The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever.” So the Lord God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been taken. After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side of the Garden of Eden cherubim and a flaming sword flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life.
A woman should learn in quietness and full submission. I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet. For Adam was formed first, then Eve. And Adam was not the one deceived; it was the woman who was deceived and became a sinner. But women will be saved through childbearing—if they continue in faith, love and holiness with propriety.
I wish conservative women would shut up as much as they ask other women to.
Shouldn’t she be at home shitting out kids and not telling people what to do then? Is the faith office composed entirely of women?
Bible sales up 22%? Please tell me this is satire.

Sales of Bibles Are Booming, Fueled by First-Time Buyers and New Versions
Publishers attribute a 22% jump in Bible sales this year to rising anxiety, a search for hope, or highly focused marketing and designs
The Pew Research Center found that about 28% of adults in the U.S. now consider themselves religiously unaffiliated. Yet Bible sales rose to 14.2 million in 2023 from 9.7 million in 2019, and hit 13.7 million in the first 10 months of this year. Readers are also stocking up on related titles that provide guidance, insights and context—even sets of stickers to flag particularly meaningful passages.
“People are experiencing anxiety themselves, or they’re worried for their children and grandchildren,” said Jeff Crosby, president of the Evangelical Christian Publishers Association. “It’s related to artificial intelligence, election cycles…and all of that feeds a desire for assurance that we’re going to be OK.”
Ephesians 5:25 is underrated
“Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ loved the church and handed himself over for her”
DESTROY ALL ABRAHAMIC RELIGIONS FOR THE FUTURE OF HUMANITY.
not fucking kidding. this is my line in the sand. i grew up in the bible belt south. i know exactly where this goes: centuries of prolonged human suffering. i will not stand to see this ignorance grow. it should have been squashed in the southern US at the height of liberal thought last century. it will only get worse if left unchecked.
buy guns you fucking cowards. this shit is NOT acceptable.
so, when are you starting this off? so easy to encourage others to d what one will not.
when i’m confident that i have brothers and sisters in arms to fight alongside me, coward.
ALL ABRAHAMIC RELIGIONS
With the competition removed, Shintoism soon spread across the face of the globe.
Hypothetically if a nation did eradicate its major religion with armed violence, missionaries going there would be a bold move indeed.
Before I was banned, my highest up-voted post on Reddit was a clip of this woman babbling in tongues for God to intervene in the 2020 election.
HAHA fucking found it! I challenge you to watch it and not laugh.
I recently got banned for saying we should have hanged all southern traitors after the civil war
I was banned for up voting this image:
I got banned for suggesting that government officials who violate people’s constitutional right to due process and get them killed as a result would be prosecuted for capital murder. Apparently, that’s “inciting violence”. I appealed it, simply to say “fuck spez”, and promptly deleted my account.
Arguably Trump’s most ardent supporters, Pentecostal-charismatic faith-based media moguls have enjoyed unprecedented access to the White House during Trump’s tenure. In return, they have showered the president with praise and loyalty.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speaking_in_tongues
Speaking in tongues, also known as glossolalia, is an activity or practice in which people utter words or speech-like sounds, often thought by believers to be languages unknown to the speaker. One definition used by linguists is the fluid vocalizing of speech-like syllables that lack any readily comprehensible meaning. In some cases, as part of religious practice, some believe it to be a divine language unknown to the speaker.[1] Glossolalia is practiced in Pentecostal and charismatic Christianity,[2][3] as well as in other religions.[4]
EDIT: Also, someone on that page you linked to did a cat version:
Techno cat version is great
Lol what’s up with the guy walking behind her with a towel, is he trying to leave the planet?
He’s the hype man. The Flava Flav of Prosperity Theology.
Some dude should’ve walked up to the podium and told her to sit down.
‘about to embark on a reading of [her] 12-book epic entitled “My Favourite Bathtime Gurgles” when [her] own major intestine, in a desperate attempt to save life and creation, lept straight up through [her] neck and throttled [her] brain.’
“Not me though”.
Is this the lady that like poisoned her husband or something? Or was that a different member of the faith office?
Fundie heretic scum.
“President Trump spoke to me in a dream. He looked exactly like God.” /s
You missed your stop. You were supposed to step off at 1930s Germany, right? Well, now we’re already headed towards medieval Spain. You might like the inquisition though.
damn I wasnt expecting that
Nobody does.
