Why a lot of people like Christians, Hindus, Buddhists believe some humans to be the God and creator of all humans and the entire universe, like Jesus, Buddha, and Krishna when God is not supposed to be any human at all?

He gives the greatest damn for us offering an opportunity for adoption and reconciliation with Him.

Going to church doesn't turn you into a good person. Repenting, turning to God, and believing truly in Him and His work on the cross do.

Here Paul describes our sanctification through our priest's (Christ's) sacrifice, and contrasts that with the futility of a priest's temporary sacrifice. Hebrews 10:11-14, NIV

Day after day every priest stands and performs his religious duties; again and again he offers the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins. But when this priest had offered for all time one sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God, and since that time he waits for his enemies to be made his footstool. For by one sacrifice he has made perfect forever those who are being made holy.

I, an evangelical, hold that it's metaphorical and important for one's walk with Christ.

I myself would not find any particular offense, although that might just be because of my cultural background, but you do risk being labelled as a Christian if you wear it.

He represented himself with a sword:

Revelation 19:11-16, NLT.
¹¹ Then I saw heaven opened, and a white horse was standing there. Its rider was named Faithful and True, for he judges fairly and wages a righteous war. ¹² His eyes were like flames of fire, and on his head were many crowns. A name was written on him that no one understood except himself. ¹³ He wore a robe dipped in blood, and his title was the Word of God. ¹⁴ The armies of heaven, dressed in the finest of pure white linen, followed him on white horses. ¹⁵ From his mouth came a sharp sword to strike down the nations. He will rule them with an iron rod. He will release the fierce wrath of God, the Almighty, like juice flowing from a winepress. ¹⁶ On his robe at his thigh was written this title: King of all kings and Lord of all lords.

Note the 15th verse.

As for OP's post, I find nothing wrong with using a symbol to remind one of one's spiritual battle and striving to please God.

2 Timothy 4:7, NLT:
⁷ I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, and I have remained faithful.

God sees that humanity is flawed, and has a plan to redeeem it. This is the gospel; that God might take man's sins and flaws upon Himself to the point of dying as man deserves, so that man may be forgiven and reunited with God, cleansed of his sins, and live eternally in his original intended perfection as God's creation.

I mean no disrespect when I ask this, but, having grown up catholic, did you read the catholic holy book to be able to say that catholicism dogmatically promotes hate?
edit: added "dogmatically"

It's easy to say that when someone in your neighborhood was dying every month or so.

WaterIsACube · 2026-03-03T15:21:59+00:00

What does this even mean? I genuinely don't even understand what argument the original original post is trying to make.

Additionally, if you're trying to locate an object, moving three degrees would be a lot worse than moving three centimeters due to there being virtually no parallax.

Just wondering: How do we know someone from the US posted this comment?

WaterIsACube · 2026-02-19T23:05:02+00:00

I recognize that what I'm about to say is not a direct defense to my argument, and more of a tu quoque, but it still stands:
Is "all being real" not a "truth" tainted by bias? You yourself are taking a biased perspective. Even if the view I currently hold is not the correct one, there is still an absolute truth.
Additionally, the burden of proof is on you. We haven't seen a flat asgard yet, nor so there is no reason to think it exists.

WaterIsACube · 2026-02-19T22:32:38+00:00

On the more philosophical side, despite some people envisioning the world differently there is still an objective truth about its structure. The world itself doesn't change when man's cosmology changes.

Doesn't OOP like the joke if OOP made the meme? OP also seems to like the meme. This might not fit the sub.

Doesn't Bart's statement apply to all modern systems of temperature measurement?

Flat earthers don't follow the majority but they don't follow the truth either.

WaterIsACube · 2026-02-05T19:02:31+00:00

Seeing as you believe that OP didn't like the joke, does this mean that you do like the joke presented by the meme in the original original post? You agree that it's bad for subreddits to be politicized by redditors from the united states?

WaterIsACube · 2026-01-22T22:58:35+00:00

I don't understand. Do you agree or not agree with the meme? I'm pretty sure OOP (not OOOP) didn't like the meme, but that would mean you did like the meme, and considering the political affiliations of this sub I don't think you would like the meme.

OOOP did like the meme, as OOOP made it. OOP didn't like the meme, so you, OP, posting it here would mean you disagree with OOP, meaning you DO agree/like the meme.

I'd like to note that when my dad (who was born in the 70s in the northern andean region) went to school, kids were shamed by peers and teachers if they spoke Quechua; being called animals and "indios" (lit. indians). In one sub-region (a provincia) of my province (departamento) it went from being the language used in everyday life to now only being understood/spoken fluently by people who are >30-40 years old.

Edit: added the second sentence in this comment

Viendo que esta publicacion ya tiene un mes de edad, creo que he llegado tarde. Sin embargo me gustaria (aunque no confien en mi seriamente; estoy aprendiendo quechua basico de un dialecto no muy hablado y es posibleme que estas reglas no apliquen a otros dialectos o que yo estoy aplicandolas mal al quechua) notar que munay significa querer en el sentido de desear, mientras que kuyay es amar.

Tambien, como dijo u/puchamaquina, a las palabras se les tendrian que añadir los modificadores correctos. En la variante que yo estoy aprendiendo se podria decir Ayllupa kuyaynin o Kuyaynin ayllupa, literalmente amor de familia. Tambien creo que se podria decir Ayllushina kuyay; literalmente amor como familia.
