If you're Christian and republican on here it's suicide. I'll never win on here because I'm outnumbered 15-0, but I just wanted to point out that celebrating and being happy that someone died because they didn't line up with your personal beliefs is gross. I'm glad you acknowledged that there is a God, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TUFKAK Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 Yeah! I’m in favor of those cities of refuge that were mentioned in the OT. We could call them, sanctuary cities, I’m sure republicans and modern day Christian’s would have no issue with that making a resurgence seeing as, after all, it’s biblical! also yeah, I’m pretty strong on the not murdering people with bombs point of view personally. But I’ll wait to hear what the dead false god has to say, fucker owes me a lot explaining anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In terms of it being gross to celebrate the death of evil: is this true in ALL instances?

You then ignore salient points made against you and just repeat some basic nonsensical point that you started with. You are a clear example of the Dunning-Kruger effect in action. I'm honestly shocked that people bother to respond to you or try to help educate you on this stuff because from what I've seen and read as a lurker for months/years has only shown me how futile that would be. You just sound like your basic religious Christian right winger who is way too overconfident in their beliefs at the expense of their intelligence and critical thinking skills. I've seen this all the time. It is what it is. Ted Kaczynski and Pat Robertson (everyone stop saying actor Robert Pattinson) being dead is certainly not a bad thing, for you to argue otherwise actually makes you the gross one for an attempted defense of truly evil people who did heinous things. This is particularly galling coming from you of all people who called Trump "entertaining" when he's anything but given the real world negative ramifications of his continued existence. Like, think to yourself for one second: Trump is entertaining to you despite how much he's hurt many people and groups but celebrating the deaths of clearly evil people on a message board is disgusting? You make no sense. Dunning–Kruger effect - Wikipedia EN.WIKIPEDIA.ORG 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLeon Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 All I have to say is that it’s endlessly funny to me that the name Pat Robertson auto-corrects in people’s heads as Robert Pattinson.

Greatoneshere Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 Kristen Stewart's and Robert Pattinson's post-Twilight acting choices have cemented them both as really interesting, great actors.

For a long time I thought Stewart was a completely awful actress, then I saw some of her more recent films, she’s great. I’ve never seen Twilight, but I like a lot of Pattinsons stuff too. I liked him as Batman. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stepee Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 The dude committed suicide, even Ted Kaczynski wanted Ted Kaczynski dead. Also I believe suicide removes any chance of forgiveness for him per christianity anyway so no matter how you slice it holding water for the UnaBOMBER seems like it should be a rethink your moral positions moment.

CastlevaniaNut18 Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 He’ll donate to help a trans person move out of a state that persecutes her, but he’ll vote for the people pushing those laws. He mourns for the people who push hateful narratives. Cognitive dissonance at its finest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not strictly correct. You cannot repent of suicide (obviously) but I don't think that extends to expulsion from Heaven based on a Biblical commandment. Thomas Aquinas was instrumental in solidifying this false teaching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In full transparency, I actually wasn't sure so I googled it before making the quip. I read that it did seem that modern interpretation might allow some leeway for him here, but that there was some debate and varied nuanced perspectives on it. So with that in mind, and knowing that there is no way in hell best would know any of this anyway, I went ahead with it in hopes one of you bible history folks wouldn’t pick up on it. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CastlevaniaNut18 Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 Growing up in church, I was always taught suicide is a one way ticket to hell. Which is another reason I found Christianity to be so cruel. I get that there are more nuanced interpretations, but the classic one is still being taught by churches everywhere.

Being told as a kid, you’re just as bad as someone like Hitler because murdering millions is the same as telling your parents a lie when you’re a toddler. Yeah, there are some interesting heresies that became relatively common in certain denominations, in the south especially, during the 1900s. Suicide is an interesting topic though. It is quite likely that most of the earliest members of the Christian faith would have opposed suicide, but not so much as an issue of sin and repentance. They tended to be for finding joy in suffering, and some even pro-martyrdom explicitly. Theologians across the centuries have tried to apply various principles to the question. In modern times it is largely viewed more softly than it would have been 500 years ago. The 80s and 90s did see a spike in condemnation of it as a result of the panic over physician assisted suicide, and given your age and geographic location, I’m not at all surprised to hear you were exposed to some of the reaction to that.
