The more I comb social media, the more I'm convinced that a disturbing majority of people not only lack empathy, but consider lacking empathy a virtue. I just don't even.
"Gee, for someone who claims to be a Christian, you're not acting very nice. How very un-Christian of you. Didn't Christ say you need to be super nice, loving, and tolerant of everybody?!?"

"Why won't God heal amputees?" and other stupid questions by atheists answered by the ever-erudite apologist JP Holding (aka TektonTV).

"All the ends of the earth will remember and turn to the Lord, and all the families of the nations will bow down before him, for dominion belongs to the Lord and he rules over the nations." - Psalms 22:27-28
The past month has seen:
- Donald Trump indicted and arrested.
- Ron DeSantis humiliated by Disney.

- J.K. Rowling lose money.
- Fox News sued.
- Tucker Carlson fired.

I hate to bring up this post again from yesterday. But I can't think of a better example of Brandolini's law: "The amount of energy needed to refute BS is always an order of magnitude larger than it took to produce it."
Like, I could explain why this post is abject nonsense, but doing that would take far more effort than this person made in writing it.
This person doesn't care to address theology in good faith. Why should I attempt addressing them in good faith?
So there's this cool neurodivergent influencer on Facebook I've been following for some time. I really like their memes about Autism. But they recently posted an anti-Christian meme. I promptly unfollowed them.
The ironic part is that they're the type of person who insists they care about "tolerance" and "acceptance."
Yeah, feeling a whole lot of "tolerance" and "acceptance" with posts like this! π
Tell me you don't understand the Bible without saying you don't understand the Bible. π
