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.

The gun is his penis.

Dude knows no one is shooting up his church, he just wants to feel big.

I think most gun nuts have some fantasy where they use their gun to stop the bad guy and become a hero

[–] Mac@mander.xyz 9 points 9 months ago

They simply fantasize about shooting people. I hear this literally every day.

[–] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 6 points 9 months ago

When statically they are more likely to become an hero.

Most of them wouldn’t be able to hit the side of a building from a meter away

[–] VampyreOfNazareth@lemm.ee 2 points 7 months ago

Correct, pistols are shit at range.

Prophecy; at some point in the near future, somebody will panic and yell "gay with a gun" and all these good Christian men will draw their weapons and shoot each other and some number of innocent bystanders, and all of it will be a terrible loss and fake news and a false flag operation all in one.

I hate to use the term, but I feel it’s appropriate to call that particular scenario a “false fag” incident.

[–] FrasseFisk@feddit.nu 10 points 9 months ago

A homo-cide

[–] Mrderisant@midwest.social 1 points 9 months ago

Ooh that was good!

Insert multiple spider man meme. Are you the gay? Am I the gay?!

[–] WaxedWookie@lemmy.world 41 points 9 months ago

Noone show him the mass shooting stats for right-wingers vs trans people...

This performative, imagined self-victimisation is some pathetic snowflake shit.

[–] Cosmicomical@kbin.social 32 points 9 months ago (1 children)

This is beyond brainwashing, the person's brain has been scrubbed clean, all the wrinkles have been flattened perfectly

[–] quicksand@lemm.ee 9 points 9 months ago

A marvel of modern science

Not a single scratch/scuff on the chamber. That guns never been fired. Bought for a photo op. But I'm sure the owner would be divinely inspired to be proficient should the need ever arise.

[–] Plavatos@sh.itjust.works 33 points 9 months ago

I'm willing to take the down votes here - I don't think this is an accurate or fair statement. Preventative maintenance makes many guns look new, I've fired hundreds of rounds through my guns and rifle and I clean them every time, they look great.

Plus the slide does have scuffs towards the front and lint/dirt on the slide grips. The polymer bottom is worn around the manufacturer text.

Ultimately, though, I'm not sure where this argument gets anyone. Let's focus on viable, provable facts about hate crimes and gun violence.

[–] DroneRights@lemm.ee 2 points 9 months ago

I can see scuffs on the chamber.

[–] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 21 points 9 months ago (1 children)

It's not about the gun. The gays need silver bullets. Fabulous silver bullets. They need to be consecrated or blessed by a theater kid who officiates non-binary weddings. (The ambiguous gender norms of the non-binary confuse gays and cause extra damage.)

An oak or ash stake with a silver nail driven into it will also work but requires being very close to a gay, which might infect you and cause you to be gay. Then you'd have to turn the gun on yourself. It's not worth the risk.

[–] VampyreOfNazareth@lemm.ee 2 points 7 months ago

Can confirm, now the gun has to go up my arse.

[–] Heikki@lemm.ee 9 points 9 months ago

Why not pack it for Easter to stop zombie Jebus?
