It’s a made me smile subreddit. Maybe he’s not special but he’s still a gentleman.

If we're getting into it, he's gone ultra religious, is part of an anti lgbtq church, and did that thing where he got much more famous than he was before and then left his wife and got himself a significantly younger wife.

Sounds like a real gentlemen because he did something super basis most shitty men would do if asked because it really isn't anything.

You’re in a “made me smile” subreddit whinging about a complete stranger’s Christianity. What has gone so wrong in your life to lead you here?

u/TwoBionicknees Mar 06 '25

christianity is preaching hate and bigotry? I mean, a lot of christians do that but in general the people supposedly at you know, the top of the leadership for christianity was pretty heavily against those things.

Just because right wing psychos believe it's christianity and call it that, doesn't make that the case.

Generalizing an entire religion one belief is exactly how you alienate certain groups and exactly how you end up in the situation we are in now.

u/TwoBionicknees Mar 06 '25

Oh no, another oen who can't read. I guess I have to ask again, quote where I generalised a religion in any way at all.

Just to save time because the other people still don't get it.

I was talking about ONE church that is specifically well known for being hateful and said literally nothing about christianity in general EXCEPT to say that this specifically hate preaching church is NOT preaching what Jesus did.

You know Biden and Obama are Christian, right?

u/TwoBionicknees Mar 06 '25

and? are they part of a hateful church that preaches hate of lgbtq people?

Do you think each and every church is identical and spreads the exact same messages?

Do you think I respect Biden or Obama? Do you think I believe them being religious, or claiming to be religious, is somehow a good thing?

What part of my message told you that I believe that a right wing church that spreads hate is 'christianity', even though I very muched called out that a church like that is not spreading the message of Jesus, but very much doing the opposite.

Calling a church a christian church, while is preaches anti christian messages.. you think I was calling out christianity and not that church as not being christian?

Well you certainly identify yourself as a right wing christian with your critical thinking skills.

You people keep attacking Christians, and even the Democrats that are Christian will start voting Republican. Good luck with that strategy.

Meh. Not OP but I have similar views. I don't mind Christianity (was raised Catholic) but I do mind assholes treating people badly in the name of Christianity.

OP seems to feel the same way as me. So in reality we're perfectly aligned with the good Christians, which is realistically the majority of them. But let's not pretend that there aren't plenty of very homophobic and even misogynistic Christian leaders, sects, and people. Wasn't it pat Robinson, a famous Christian pastor / Reverend that said hurricanes were caused by gay people?

Oh no Christian’s have it so hard 🥱🥱

u/TwoBionicknees Mar 06 '25

Quote where I attacked christians.

Right, I didn't, good for you, you're an idiot.

I attacked THE CHURCH HE GOES TO, which is a church famous for hate and anti lgtbq stances.

I specifically said this church doesn't appear to represent jesus because it's pro bigotry and hatred.

I did call out people who are right wing, thing they are christian and have no critical thinking skills so I do understand why you felt attacked.

Again, explain and quote where I attacked christianity and not this specific church which I was saying was anti christianity.

u/itjustgotcold Mar 06 '25

You’re making up a strawman to fight here. The person you replied to specifically stated that Pratt was part of an anti-lgbtq church. You acting like that is just part of Christianity shows how poorly you misunderstand the religion. Christianity doesn’t condone hatred of people. So it kind of speaks volumes that you think someone pointing out that hatred is not part of your religion is attacking your religion, lol.

u/SuperRiveting Mar 06 '25

His body his choice. Isn't that what you lot always say?

3

u/TwoBionicknees Mar 06 '25

Do you have a point? Quote a part of my message I said he wasn't able to go to whatever church he wanted or have any belief he wanted?

My body, my brain, my choice. I believe he's an asshole.

What argument do you even think you're making here? Because it's his choice to go to a hate filled church then I have to think he's a good guy?

u/SuperRiveting Mar 06 '25

No point, just a comment. Have a nice day :)

u/TwoBionicknees Mar 06 '25

yeah, figured as much.

u/SuperRiveting Mar 06 '25

You're an angry individual. Should get that under control before you do yourself an injury. :)

1

u/TwoBionicknees Mar 06 '25

yeah, figured as much.

i can't believe the anger seething off this statement.

Of course the person who made a painfully stupid comment, got called out, tried to pretend he wasn't and then started projecting is definitely not mad.

You do understand everyone knows the tactic right, everyone knows that when someone insists another person is mad, they are telling everyone very clearly how angry they are. It's just funny because you're angry at your own stupid comment. But i'm sure if you try real hard you can convince yourself everyone agrees with you.

u/SuperRiveting Mar 06 '25

I'm quite calm as it happens. I don't get worked out about what these so called celebrities get up to in their own lives.

Thank you for the concern though, it's touching.

1

u/TwoBionicknees Mar 06 '25

I don't remember saying you get worked UP about so called celebrities. YOu made a dumb comment thinking you were being cool calling out a lib for being a hypocrit over my body my choice. When it was pointed out to you I said nothing about infringing his body or his choice, you pretended you were just making a random unconnected comment rather than admit you were wrong.

Just the fact you lied rather than admit you misunderstood shows us you were angry. that you then felt the need to insist I was angry because of that shockingly angry message I said back, again shows it.

You can admit it, you made a dumb mistake, you tried to own a lib, you fucked up and got upset about it because admitting you're wrong isn't in your tool set. Do you realise you'll be less angry and a happier person if you can learn to admit you were wrong?

It's okay, I believe in you, you can do it, like maybe not before you hit 80 and 2 heart attacks from the stress, but I believe in you.

u/SuperRiveting Mar 06 '25

Nice angry rant you wrote there. Try deep breathing to bring your heart rate and blood pressure down.

Have a nice rest of your day and don't forget to smile! :)

As a Christian, the preaching isn’t hate towards people in the lgbtq community, even though some Christians seem to hate members of that community. The message of Christianity is love. The Bible says that God made marriage for a man and a woman and that everyone is fearfully and wonderfully made. It says nothing about putting down or hating those who are lgbtq. I understand why many think the message is dumb bc why care, but people often conflate that message with hate when it has nothing to do with that.

2

u/TwoBionicknees Mar 06 '25

what's your point here exactly? Can you quote where I said christianity is preaching hate? Can you show me where I said what the message of christianity is at all?

Read what I actually said and react to that rather than what you think I said because you didn't bother to read it properly.

-1

u/Sad_Interest_3277 Mar 06 '25

Also, settle down, friend. No need to be so aggressive.

1

u/CraftyKuko Mar 06 '25

They seemed pretty settled to me. No aggression whatsoever.

0

u/Sad_Interest_3277 Mar 06 '25

They’ve been throwing little insults at my intelligence the entire discussion but this specific message doesn’t look horrible.

1

u/CraftyKuko Mar 06 '25

You're putting words in their mouth. They asked a simple question "where did I say that?" And instead of admitting you're wrong, you redirected to their attitude.

0

u/Sad_Interest_3277 Mar 06 '25

They said things like as you say “didn’t bother to read the message” I did. And, “You could admit you’re wrong but I doubt you will”. Making assumptions of me and my character. I addressed their point by saying that just bc a church preaches against homosexuality doesn’t mean they hate homosexuals or anyone within the community. Jesus saved an adulterer from getting stoned and then told her to no longer sin. Often, a church can be called hateful church simply because to tells people to not sin. That’s how I addressed his point. So no, I was not wrong and yes, there was Ana mount of aggression in his messages.

u/TwoBionicknees Mar 06 '25

yes, same as always. gets it wrong, gets called out, realise they were wrong, insist the other person is upset. Not going to work. Quote where I said christianity was preaching hate or are you too upset to admit you're wrong and just projecting.

Prove me wrong, be the bigger person and actually admit you're wrong. I'll be straight up honest, I don't think you will, I'm assume you'll double down. Will it be wow you're upset because of how much you typed, that's a classic.

Maybe we'll try this one, can you quote the exact part that made you believe I was aggressive?

1

u/Sad_Interest_3277 Mar 06 '25
  1. It was the, “because you didn’t bother to read it properly” comment. Definitely unnecessary and definitely a jab.
  2. I already admitted that you didn’t insult Christianity directly, but rather my point was that churches that preach against the ideals of a community don’t necessarily hate them.
  3. You’re doing a lot more personal attacks than I am.
  4. Take a deeeeep breath.

1

u/TwoBionicknees Mar 06 '25

Telling someone they didn't read the comment properly, when you responded in a way that was completely contrary to what I said wasnt' aggressive, it was factual. You quite literally responded to something I never said or implied. If telling you a fact is aggressive, it seems like you're offended by being called out.

You’re doing a lot more personal attacks than I am.

I haven't made a single personal attack. You have made many.

1

u/Sad_Interest_3277 Mar 06 '25

I actually just responded in a way that wasn’t direct but still addressed your point. I said preaching against a group doesn’t correlate to hate. So in fact I did read what you said but you misunderstood me. Tbf it could be easily misunderstood which is why I corrected myself. But you also said “I assume you won’t take responsibility for what you said” thereby saying I’m dense and unwilling to be open-minded. Yes, I have been prodding you bc your reactions are amusing, but to say you haven’t been aggressive is a blatant disregard for your own words and how they come off.

1

u/TwoBionicknees Mar 06 '25

No you didn't. Again I was talking about a specific church that is known to literally preach hate and wasn't talking about christianity at all. I was talking about a hate filled preacher who claims to be christian and I also pointed otu that they magically don't preach what jesus taught.

So you were replying to me as if I claimed christianity preached hate, which is something I never said. So no, you responded to me acting as if I said one thing when I didn't say it at all.

but people often conflate that message with hate when it has nothing to do with that.

this was not something I claimed and again was talking about a specific church that does in fact preach hate and is famous for doing so.

So I'll ask you what I asked then, what relevance did your comment have, when I was specifically talking about a supposed christian actually preaching hate? Right, you still haven't read the comment properly.

So in fact I did read what you said but you misunderstood me.

nope I did, you just still don't get it you're still having an argument about a point no one anywhere made and you're still acting like I started that discussion when I absolutely did not.

but to say you haven’t been aggressive is a blatant disregard for your own words and how they come off.

you getting upset for being called incapable of reading correctly doesn't make it a fact. IN fact it's pretty laughable to claim such a thing.

u/Sad_Interest_3277 Mar 06 '25

I’m coming from a place having not heard a message on homosexuality or trans people from that church so all ik is what people often call hate isn’t really that. I’m aware there is a possibility the church does that but I doubt that Chris Pratt would go to a church that openly says to hate a group of people bc they deal with a different sin than others. Have you heard a message from that church that specifically promotes hate towards lgbtq people? Or are you going off of what you’re heard abt that church?
