    I’ve heard Christians justify this shit a decade ago by saying they are terrorist by association of where they born.

      The people born in the holy land are terrorists?

      Do they think Bethlehem is the old timey name for Cincinnati or do they just want to hide their regular ‘brown people bad’ racism beind an unsaid “blood and soil” instead of being overt, yknow, because they’re Christian?

        I was too angry to listen to reason. Basically, all Palestinians as I understood were considered terrorist. If you aren’t Israeli or for Israel (explicitly), you are bad.

      Once you believe in an eternal hell and that people deserve that just for thought crimes, anything and everything are excusable

      Which is, of course, a violation of the Geneva Convention. Not that petty international laws should apply to “gOd’S cHoSeN pEoPlE.”

      Just a subset of the idea that we’re all born sinners and have to claw our way up to show worthiness. It’s about control.

        It was sickening to listen to someone tell me Israel is justified because… [insert random religious thing].
