Which Is Cool - Tumblr Posts

This really funny thing happened at my church where the pastor just casually called out this homophobic couple in the middle of his sermon. 

For context: A Gay man who'd been attending for years wanted to become a church elder, and this couple was of the opinion that Gay people should only be allowed into churches to be 'fixed'. They’d been cordial to him and his boyfriend for years, but him wanting to run for the position while still “choosing” to be gay crossed a line for them. 

These two started to try and rally people to their side in the congregation, and didn’t seem to be getting the hint that it was literally only them who cared about this. Eventually the pastor just had enough and gave this whole sermon on the section of the bible that the couple kept citing as being proof that “being gay wasn’t christian”. He pointed out that it also listed “re-marrying when your spouse was still alive” as something christians weren’t supposed to do, and said something to the effect of “if go around telling people to abide by this section you should be following ALL of it.”  

Both of the homophobes had divorced their previous spouses and married each-other. 

They got up, left, and never came back. 

Best fucking sermon ever. 

I full understand that it is not appropriate as response to talking about the various roles of christianity in colonialism and Christofascism,

However as its own thing, I think its an interesting subject how the Bible is supposed to be the fundamental source of Christian doctrine, BUT most of the "traditional values" of christian conservatives and ideas that are powerfully associated with christianity...just Are Not In There, or are only mentioned as brief, isolated side notes amidst much longer and more detailed passages discussing something different

Whereas many ideas that are emphasized HUGELY in the Bible are just totally and completely ignored by these rightwing political folks 

Much of Christianity is not actually based on the Bible, but instead on a bunch of traditions and later writers, but protestants have problems with admitting that.

And as someone who was raised very "sola scriptura" i don't even get why church tradition matters for anyone. Who cares what Augustine thought about abortion. He was literally just a guy

It has become increasingly obvious...

AND I CAN DENY IT NO LONGER....

I am submas trash.

Baldness is for nerds this is a battle to the death. If you have the same character/pfp on both platforms you have to decide which is the superior.

You have to explain your reasoning in the reblogs too

So I just saw a post by a random personal blog that said “don’t follow me if we never even had a conversation before” and?????? Not to be rude but literally what the fuck??????????

I’ve had people (non-pornbots) try to strike conversation out of nowhere in my DMs recently, and now I’m wondering if they were doing that because they wanted to follow me and thought they needed to interact first. I feel compelled to say, just in case, that it’s totally okay to follow this blog (or my side blog, for that matter) even if we’ve never talked before.

Also, I’m legit confused. Is this how follow culture works right now? It was worded like it’s common sense but is that really a thing?

So I played ddlc with a friend who knew nothing about it, and a friend who really only knows about the plot and not the other weird stuff

We finished act 1 last night and

Guess who scarred their friends last night
