Thousands of Southern Baptists overwhelmingly voted Wednesday to advance a formal ban on women pastors in the nation’s largest Protestant denomination, sending a clear message that men alone should preach to these conservative evangelical congregations.
You’re definitely a former Christian. Maybe Jewish Either way you were a suburban warrior and that “training” disallows you from being subjective.
Or I’m completely wrong and you just somehow naturally landed in your pile of bullshit lol.
I encourage more reading.
Your concept of Fascism is almost insulting to the concept of rationales. You can link whatever Googled output you want, but it won’t change the fact that the guy literally invented it, wrote books and essays about it, and absolutely none of it has anything to do with what you’re talking about. It is as fallacious as cclaiming the ocean is the sky because it too is blue.
I’m incablemof being subjective?
What does that even mean?
Did you mean “objective”?- ie, that I can’t look at things without my personal bias?
Cuz I’d agree with that I can’t be objective- and yes, I’m considering it all from my personal subjective understanding.
As for “Mussolini invented fascism” … that’s a bit naive. Actually, that’s very naive. Yeah he named what we fascism today. He started the first National Fascist Party in Italy, too.
his fascism was a blend of nationalism, populism and extreme authoritarianism.
Now let’s consider that blend in the context of Jesus.
Claiming to be the messiah- a king of the line of David, who would defeat military enemies of Israel and liberate the oppressed Israelites and institute the theocratic monarchy, and lead that theocratic monarchy to control the entire world- means he’s very fucking nationalist.
He claims all authority comes from god. And that be is god, and that disobedience leads to death and eternal torture… he’s extremely fucking authoritarian.
His views of liberating the oppressed and uplifting the destitute; against the uncaring, immoral elite (Pharisees) who led the Jewish people away from the Law, and caused god to be angry with them and who allowed the Roman’s to oppress them in punishment.
So yeah. The term applies, even if it’s uncomfortable to admit, even if it’s anachronistic, does that change that the two have very similar commonalities?
