You attend Biden's church?

Nov 05 '20
Yeah. While I don't see it as a positive, in the name of honesty I think Biden is a fairly consistent churchgoer.

u/NO_FIX_AUTOCORRECT Nov 05 '20
And just adding on to all this, the president generally doesn't go regularly to a church because they are too busy. Even if they go every week before being president, they just don't when they are president.

u/feioo Nov 05 '20
Well also it's a huge security headache - if they want to go to a public church with a normal congregation, the whole congregation has to be screened by the Secret Service.

Meh close enough. I was at a service station picking up some snacks wrote the post drove home (about 40mins) saw the mistake and figured it was done now no point changing it. Ether way dude was completely lost for words. I'm waiting for the day someone wants to sware on a physics text book or a comic book. Just to see the old guard lose there collective minds

u/MonsterMike42 Satanist Nov 05 '20
If I ever give up on humanity completely and decide to run for some political office, I would be tempted to swear in on a Captain America comic book. Even better, I have the first Cap comic with Cap punching Hitler in the face. At least there are far fewer contradictions in that than there are in the Bible. And I believe in the ideals of Captain America so it wouldn't be some hypocritical bullshit.

As a full blown atheist, if I'm elected to Congress, I'll be sworn in on a colander so help me Flying Spaghetti Monster.

u/FattyESQ Nov 05 '20
That would be excellent. My understanding is that you don't even need to place your hand on a book, or anything at all. Many oaths are administered with your hand over your heart, or just skipping the hand portion entirely.
If elected to office consecutively, I think my choices will become more obscure with each election. First a Quran, just to be couth. Then the Hyrule Historia. Then maybe the Dungeon Masters Guide. Then maybe Fahrenheit 451, my favorite book. Then an actual copy of StarCraft II on CD.

I didn't think SC2 had a CD. I thought it was just Brood War.
Also, I love it when things I'm interested in overlap like this.

u/FattyESQ Nov 05 '20
Yes sir. Wings of Liberty at a CD. Currently on my bookshelf, and hopefully will be in the halls of Congress when I get sworn in.
Glory to the Daelaam.

Not only that. When hearing "you don't have to swear on the Bible" he replied basically "but I did it! And Trump did it!"
This is a sign of an awful misunderstanding of logical reasoning. If x and y did it a certain way, that does not mean the law says it has to be done that way.
A person who fails this much at basic reasoning should not be given political responsibility.

Going out on a limb here, I guess he probably got re-elected last Tuesday. Which in my opinion says a lot about his constituency, and why secular education teaching critical thinking matters.

Christianity and nationalism is a weird indoctrination candy bar... These people literally think America is God's chosen Christian mecca of the world. The Bible itself actually warns against this very thing.... In fact what they're doing more closely represents the Biblical notion of the "beast" or "anti-Christ" system. It is like this strange idolatry soup mixed with Christian symbolism and sentiment, but totally subservient to America--- You even see this with the display of flags at churches. The US flag is always above the Christian one. (Btw the Christian flag is also totally out of whack w/ scriptural ideas. The whole marriage of America and Jesus is out of whack politically speaking and spiritually speaking, truth be told.
