About

This is the official Lemmy for the r/ReligiousCringe***** subreddit. This is a community about poking fun at the religious fundamentalist's who take their religion a little bit too far. Here you will find religious content that is so outrageous and so cringeworthy that even someone who is mildly religious will cringe.

Rules

  1. All posts must contain religious cringe. All posts must be made from a religious person or must be showcasing some kind of religious bigotry. The only exception to this is rule 2

  2. Material about religious bigots made by non-bigots is only allowed from Friday-Sunday EST. In an effort to keep this community on the topic of religious cringe and bigotry we have decide to limit stuff like atheist memes to only the weekends.

  3. No direct links to religious cringe. To prevent religious bigots from getting our clicks and views directs links to religious cringe are not allowed. If you must a post a screenshot of the site or use archive.ph. If it is a YouTube video please use a YouTube frontend like Piped or Invidious

  4. No Proselytizing. Proselytizing is defined as trying to convert someone to a particular religion or certain world view. Doing so will get you banned.

  5. Spammers and Trolls will be instantly banned. No exceptions.

The most fake, hypocritical, entitled mother fuckers I have ever met have all been extremely religious.

Fuck religion.

Were they all Christians, or were they of a variety of faiths?

Don't know about them, but I've seen plenty of Jews like this.

Well, that's two religions, which are both part of the same family and are even arguably the same religion. That data doesn't tell us anything about Shintos, Haudenosaunee, Sihks, Maori, Hellenists, Aztecs, realists, pantheists, Buddhists, Celts, or any number of other religions I could name.

The problem is that people go their whole lives where the only religious people they interact with are Abrahamists, so they think Abrahamism is representative of all religions. But that's an extraordinarily sheltered viewpoint, and no good has ever come of dismissing foreign cultures out of hand with no relevant data.
