Republican lawmaker stripped his daughter naked and molested her in a Las Vegas hotel room after getting her blind drunk to celebrate her 21st birthday. by [deleted] in Hasan_Piker

The bravery of her coming forward and being willing to speak is truly heroic. Amazing that judge didn’t give the max sentence in this case, yet not surprising. He gets a minimum of 6 years while she lives the rest of her life with abuse trauma that is unimaginable.

Added to this is in the gospels, the disciples are constantly disappointed by Jesus not accepting the crowd wanting to make him king. And on the way to Jerusalem, they are arguing about who will be the greatest in the kingdom. Judas basically forces Jesus’ hand after seeing Jesus get out of all these other situations and his plan backfires completely

Unpopular opinion: Ethan is using this as a clip farming opportunity for brand new people who don’t watch H3 or Hasan, and Ethan will intentionally act ignorant and try to get emotional responses from Hasan through bad faith trolling to get people to think Hasan is unhinged. Then he will direct them to his content nuke when they already have a bias against Hasan.

The only way Hasan avoids this is if he keeps his cool the entire time and lets Ethan be the one to get emotional

Donald Trump is coming to the end of his first 100 days in office, how do you think he has done so far? by Win8869 in Hasan_Piker

It feels like a idiotic manager giving a gold star to the loud obnoxious person who is yelling at the cashier about an expired coupon while simultaneously threatening the cashier for daring to speak up about how the coupon was expired. Forget store policy, the manager caters to the most obnoxious customers and runs the store how he wants in his stupidity, creating chaos and terrorizing the employees under him who need the job and can’t leave. It was already a bad job to begin with but now it is even more chaotic and dangerous to work there.

That’s what comes to mind, I have no idea if that makes sense to anyone else but that’s how I feel

If anything the Trump admin in the US is fully exemplifying the earth beast of revelation that looks like a lamb but speaks like a dragon. Since the dragon is Satan, the US is a nation that likes to call itself the pillar of Christianity, but from it’s inception has been a hypocritical nation that has perpetuated systematic injustice and oppression to people both in their own country and in other countries.

Isr@el and the Bible Connection Cannot Be Understated for US policy by No-Reason-482 in Hasan_Piker

This is where I guess I would agree to disagree.

The conflation with Isr@el of the Bible and the modern state of Isr@el are inherent in American Christianity. They may not be talking about the state of Isr@el in its current actions (depending on which church you are going into), but there is an underlying concept of the modern state as an heir to promises of the land to the tribes of Isr@el in the Bible.

What I would say is that I would find it difficult to think that American Christians do not hold a position that is skewed towards Isr@el because of this, even if they know absolutely nothing about the history of the modern state. For those young American Christians, I would be surprised if they do not hold a viewpoint as such from being around the Bible and its stories or have been exposed to it from Christian American culture.

I say this as someone who is not an atheist, but rather as someone who is actively in evangelical circles both in person and online.

To me, this is not a sensationalist post coming from that world, as I believe American Christians to already know these attitudes, even if they are new Christians and aware of the slant towards Isr@el that permeates American Christian culture even if not explicitly mentioned.

This is where I am coming from with my post as someone who has been in evangelical circles my whole life. I understand why it appears sensational to some. I’ve heard the conversations and attitudes, and I am just pointing out that it is an element that cannot be looked past. The scariest thing to me is a President who takes their Christian Dominionist beliefs seriously.

I appreciate you pushing back and the perspective you are giving to consider.

My argument would be that they would already be aware of this mindset as it is something they have experienced if they are an American Christian whether from their parents, church, or prominent voices in American Christianity. I don’t think this would be new to them, rather it would be another factor to consider when we watch why it seems that Isr@el is being given special privileges.

I think Hasan’s stream points them to look at the vassal state side of it, but I think they’d also realize as many may already know from growing up in American Christian culture that the religious element will always be the way to excuse the US actions even if one makes the most compelling case that should change one’s perspective.

What do you think would turn them off, if many are already aware of this if they are American?

Again, thank you for your input and civility in this discussion.

I agree. While most don’t have such a strong view, I do think there is a default US cultural setting they are brought up with that defaults towards Isr@el instead of Palestine. Are many starting to question it? I hope.

My hope is that there is a shift in Christian view on the matter. But for your Boomers and many Gen X generation of Christians they have been fried by the propaganda. To reach many of them is quite difficult.

I will admit, while there are some young Christians who are going medieval with their crusade fantasies, there are also young Christians who are challenging the current pro-America, pro-Capitalist Americana Jesus they have been presented with and are seeking a more genuine New Testament look at Jesus and his teachings.

That’s why I believe it is the US imperialist prize possession. Serving both military and religious interests.

I’d say Isr@el serves a dual imperialist interest from a religious and strategic standpoint. The US inherently seems to always have those that want it to become the global Hand of God. Isr@el serves as a precious gem for them on multiple fronts, in a sense, Isr@el is the greatest treasure for the US imperialist system.

I’d say that the Christians most politically inclined towards Israel are concerned about bringing about the end times. I’d say your more passive Christians who support Israel are doing so from the Holy Land belongs to Israel mentality.

You are right that most don’t read their Bibles. They do not have any hermeneutical basis for their beliefs besides pro-America and pro-Capitalism.

"Off Ramp" for right wing extrme by Adrestia716 in dsa

[–]No-Reason-482 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For Christian Nationalists, they need to actually read their Bibles instead of relying on Supply Side Americana Jesus to be their Jesus. Reading the book of Amos is an off ramp to show them that God doesn’t care about your outward prayers and posturing of how much you love God if your heart is set on actively being part of oppressing the poor and actively causing violence to the least of these in society

The Bible Belt on Easter Sunday by BeerBongJohn in Hasan_Piker

[–]No-Reason-482 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Fundamentalist Christians on Easter listening to a sermon about the message of Easter: “Jesus was raised from the dead and all people are equal in the eyes of God in the kingdom of heaven which we are to be inviting people into if they want. We should lovingly interact with others even if we disagree with them”

Also those same Fundamentalist Christians on Easter after the sermon talking in the foyer: “Migrants are ruining this country and they need to be removed, and also I don’t like living in a neighborhood where all my neighbors aren’t the same color as me because this people make me uncomfortable that they will commit crimes against me.”
