They can be both true believers and power brokers. They're not mutually exclusive.

@angelastella @jeffowski @lednaBM So? It costs nothing to believe in delusions. Your analogy doesn't work. @BinroHeretic @jeffowski @lednaBM What analogy? Organized religion is organized crime. @BinroHeretic @jeffowski @lednaBM Beliefs. Delusions. Cognitive pathogens. Things people made up to manipulate others by shutting down thought. Use whatever name you feel comfortable with. @angelastella @jeffowski @lednaBM And what is the basis for your assertion that the Catholic Church is run by non-believers? @angelastella @jeffowski @lednaBM It sounds like you're saying believers inherently behave morally while non-believers behave immorally. Why would you believe this? @BinroHeretic @jeffowski @lednaBM You're jumping to conclusions. I say they would behave differently, not morally. I'm a fucking atheist, for God's sake! 🤣 @angelastella @jeffowski @lednaBM Why would they behave differently? @BinroHeretic @jeffowski @lednaBM Look, research it for yourself. I just cracked open a bottle of gin and it's my purpose to get drunk within the next hour. Signing off from the country where that elected theocrat comes from. @BinroHeretic @angelastella @jeffowski @lednaBM Greed and power--while morally wrong--can be easily understood, even reasoned with...depending. However, if you want a true slaughter...well, that will require a FANATIC (read 'true believer').☠️ @clintruin @BinroHeretic @jeffowski @lednaBM True believers are detectable. And then you fight them like the subhuman monsters they are. And no, you can't reason with the greedy and power-hungry. Again, you fight them. We could sacrifice the 1% but we choose not to. Wonder why. Maybe they'll take care of us stupid nonconformists and bring peace for the upstanding citizens? @angelastella @BinroHeretic @jeffowski @lednaBM @clintruin @BinroHeretic @jeffowski @lednaBM Do you really believe that? @clintruin @BinroHeretic @jeffowski @lednaBM I'm not a fucking god to my species. Are you? @angelastella @BinroHeretic @jeffowski @lednaBM Thomas Ligotti @clintruin @BinroHeretic @angelastella @lednaBM -- @clintruin @BinroHeretic @angelastella @lednaBM -- And that's why it's so fucking scary that the #MAGA crowd is believing everything Trump says. The atrocities are coming... @BinroHeretic @angelastella @lednaBM -- LOL, delusional or corrupt, the result seems to be the same. “Stupidity is the same as evil if you judge by the results.” If they were believers, I think they would live by what their book tells them: love, sharing, protecting the weak. You can't just go preach that shit to the poor while sitting on billions in a castle surrounded by gold and riches, and be a believer. @axnxcamr @angelastella @jeffowski @lednaBM Sure you can. Believers have blind spots, too. That being said, they're a bunch of liars, hypocrites, and con artists. But I don't doubt for a minute that they believe the shit they spew. I agree on that point... I mean the liars, hypocrites and con artists part. For the rest, it's hard to know what's in someone's mind so we may never know. @axnxcamr @angelastella @jeffowski @lednaBM Yes, which is why I asserted that they're not mutually exclusive. |
