Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

If the devil is real and I go to hell, I'm gonna become a demon and possess these mf'ers.

Sorry, but because you want to go to hell, we can't let you in.

You know -- corporate policy.

We had one too many run-ins with people chasing the succubi. I'm sure you understand. Check your local DMV if you want a clarification of our rules. 😎

Do some people think that there are Christians who don't believe in a literal devil?

[–] [email protected] 17 points 4 months ago

There are definitely some Christians that would consider belief in the devil, or atleast a powerful devil, as a Dualistic Heresy.

Oddly enough these would usually be the most progressive Christians who usually consider the devil to be a metaphor for immorality, and ultra traditional Christians who never adopted the conservative evangelical movement.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

There are. Certain groups don't even believe in anything supernatural and don't really take the bible literally at all.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

Yeah this threw me as well. The US is so religious I hardly think this would be controversial.

Apple, tree, whatever

All of Mexico is against Trump and republicans.

One of them once tried to invalidate what I said by trying to dictate what my life or personal experiences were like, trying to forcefully penetrate the idea that they don't really hate mexicans, that I am just crazy. That kind of attack always enrages me the most.

There is no denying that they are absolute monsters no one deserves to waste their time on wishing and waiting for a redemption arc.

This is the VP they have chosen, and it just adds to the pile of absolute evil shit they have done and are about to do: https://youtu.be/K3qYJoSV0lI?si=RZ9Vhy9IozGJfpTY
