I actually have some, let's call it knowledge of how that man behaves and thus thinks. All I'm going to say is that Trump is a saint and an example of respect for diversity compared to Wilders. This guy is one of the most vile humans in Europe IMO.
He certainly comes across as one.

Nice to know someone is reading my posts


I’m a atheist communist who wants to turn the Vatican into a giant central planning committee room for steel production but…… if the current Pope called Biden a heretic and launched a crusade against the democrats chanting 4 more years in that church. I would drink all the Jesus wine available and happily join the good holy fight.

The point has always been to take advantage of the sheep...

Ezekiel 23:20 - There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses.

They'd love to have had porn a mouse click away back in tribal days, and certainly enjoy it today.

Surely @horsechoker is the resident CAF expert in these matters?

This thread is quite embarrassing I must say. I don't see the ultra conservative religious with a thread with constant updates about the secular world and what they're coming out with routinely so it causes me to wonder about the mentality of those that keep piping up here. Very strange.

This forum isn't conducive to the ultra conservative religious, and thank feck for that. Otherwise I'm sure we'd have one.

I'll bite. Can you give an example or two of what the secular world is coming out with that's bad?

In mankind’s history, nothing has killed more people, or destroyed more lives, than religion. It’s perfectly reasonable to highlight the crimes and hypocrisies carried out in the name of magical sky gods.

Perhaps for the same reason believers in Zenu or the various Hindu gods don't. Those who "pipe up" often view any belief in gods or religion as hugely harmful to society.

Not ‘any’ belief, just those that use it to justify historical economic fleecing of the poor, colonisation, mass murder, genocide, ethnic cleansing and the rape & subjugation of women / minorities / minors.

Maoism. Religion is broad and so is political and philosophicals positions that are secular. Its very varied.

Eugenics used to be one too. It was pretty fundamental to Nazi Ideology.

Eugenics is actually a great example but I was hoping for some more current material as the post I replied to implied that the secular world is spewing out atrocities so frequently you could have a thread giving constant updates about it, so bringing up things that aren't a thing anymore seems to miss the mark a bit. If this thread was full of posts shaking their fists about the crusades or the Salem witch trials it would be a different matter.

According to those people things like giving equal rights and freedom to live their lives normally to LGBTQ+ is probably equivalent to committing an atrocity so I guess they can post those updates.

The ccp are covertly sterilising Tibetans and Uigyurs based on the very popular idea that real Chinese have Han genetics.

Should be recent enough

I believe they’re called:

Westminster Politics
US Politics
Russian invasion of Ukraine
Israel - Palestine
Facism in Pakistan

…and about 2000 more.
They are far too secular. What we need is a fundematalist thread where any critical thought is banned.
