About

This is the official Lemmy for the r/ReligiousCringe***** subreddit. This is a community about poking fun at the religious fundamentalist's who take their religion a little bit too far. Here you will find religious content that is so outrageous and so cringeworthy that even someone who is mildly religious will cringe.

Rules

  1. All posts must contain religious cringe. All posts must be made from a religious person or must be showcasing some kind of religious bigotry. The only exception to this is rule 2

  2. Material about religious bigots made by non-bigots is only allowed from Friday-Sunday EST. In an effort to keep this community on the topic of religious cringe and bigotry we have decide to limit stuff like atheist memes to only the weekends.

  3. No direct links to religious cringe. To prevent religious bigots from getting our clicks and views directs links to religious cringe are not allowed. If you must a post a screenshot of the site or use archive.ph. If it is a YouTube video please use a YouTube frontend like Piped or Invidious

  4. No Proselytizing. Proselytizing is defined as trying to convert someone to a particular religion or certain world view. Doing so will get you banned.

  5. Spammers and Trolls will be instantly banned. No exceptions.

While I think the whole thing is yikes, I think in this instance he’s referring to caving in to masturbation/porn, not rape… I hope.

I’m really naive and thought he just meant starring.

[–] flying_sheep@lemmy.ml 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

According to a lot of ex Christians in the comments, staring is probably exactly what he meant

[–] zeppo@lemmy.world 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Just thinking lustful thoughts even if he doesn’t stare and nobody else notices anything. Literal thought policing.

WTF. I just said “i also don't think what he said is dangerous, people think he just means staring”. I'm defending the guy against accusations of being rapey. But please tell me more about how I'm “thought policing”.

I think you may have misread what he’s saying

[–] flying_sheep@lemmy.ml 0 points 8 months ago

Seems like it, deleted and apologized

[–] zeppo@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I wasn't saying you're doing that, rather that Christians thought police each other and themselves because one can't even think a lustful thought without being in violation of religious rules.

I see,sorry for misinterpreting you!
