Every job I’ve ever had, my coworkers and I have pretty openly discussed the ‘taboo’ shit like religion and politics. We can generally keep the flames under control, and if shit does start to heat up we’ll change the topic knowing that the conversation isn’t going anywhere at that point… but ultimately it’s been a consistent point of growth for pretty much everyone involved.
Coming from the Trump regime, I can only assume it means “convert your non-christian coworkers to christianity, and other application of this policy will get you fired” so, 100% fuck this shit. Coming from less of an absolute shitstain traitor, I’d actually be in favor of this kind of rhetoric. Maintain policies requiring professional behavior and prohibiting harassment so that those who don’t want to discuss it are empowered to shut the conversation up; but in a consensual setting, sure I’ll hear you pitch coming to Jesus or w/e - so long as you’re equally receptive to my counterargument.
That’s not how it’s gonna work, so again, fuck everything about this, but fuck if it doesn’t hint at a nice sounding ideal.
Blaspheme against the holy spirit, that piece of shit.
Doing so is the only unforgivable sin. Do not pass go, do not collect 200 dollars. Straight to hell with you and there is nothing anyone can do about it. Not even their god. By blaspheming against the holy spirit, that fake garbage, you are putting up the shield against christians. They can’t save you, you have no reason to convert, it is a waste of their time…please leave me alone.
Now, if anyone can give me reverse loopholes for other religions, that would be great.
Technically that doesn’t even work with christianity. You have to very specifically blaspheme against the holy spirit, who is most definitely a child rapist on the Epstein list. You can call their god whatever name you want, deny Jesus, worship any form of metallic idol you want - you still can get through the door to heaven. It takes a special kind of statement - like saying the holy spirit isn’t even real and only exists because whatever man made it all up was accused of copying off of some other religion and just made up even more bullshit so their “nuh uh” had more weight.
Oh, it isn’t? What’s your definition if not Merriam-Webster’s? Or do we look to the holy spirit for the definition? Because in my understanding that thing can’t even spell much less string together a coherent definition of what it means to blaspheme.
Traditionally, blaspheming the holy spirit is taken as denying the existence thereof. As soon as you believe in it and convert to christianity, the sin no longer exists and is ‘forgiven.’ The reason it is “unforgiveable” is because you literally cannot ask for forgiveness and to “receive christ in your heart” without believing in it.
I think maybe someone should convert Trump to Christianity.
Trump or christians in general… if those folks actually behaved as their own religion instructed, things would… well, honestly still be pretty fucked; but significantly less fucked than they are today!
I mean, there’s still shit like the promotion of slavery, stoning of gays, and subjugation of women that would lead us into a lot of the same issues we’re having today; but without the plethora of other to keep us all distracted, we’d probably have made a lot more progress against even those remaining few.

My I introduce the reverse loophole.

Fuck your gods, all hail Satan!
That might work for most

That’s not what the blaspheming of the Holy Spirit is at all.

I agree with you. On surface, it is a good thing. But again, this is Trump speaking.

I think society would be pretty good if the people who identified as Christian actually acted accordingly

So, better, but still not good.
The Bible doesn’t promote slavery or the subjugation of women, the stonings are the old levitical law.
Than wtf is this shit? https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Eph+6%3A5-9%3B+Col+3%3A22-4%3A1%3B+1+Tim+6%3A1-2%3B+Tit+2%3A9-10%3B+1+Pet+2%3A18-20&version=NRSVUE
That’s not promoting slavery. It’s addressing slavery that’s already happening.
Also worth mentioning this isn’t like chattel slavery
Ah, because if the slavery is in the now, it’s OK.
Promoting slavery that’s actively happening is still promoting slavery.
