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.

People are twisted. Who the fuck produces a comic like this and who the fuck looks at this tripe and thinks "looks about right".

Victim envy. The Puritans had a great thing going in Holland, except for the fact that they had to consort with other people who wanted religious freedom. The Puritans needed to be isolated so they could be 'free' of other people's ideas.

Remember, you aren't free unless you're standing on another person's back.

Anyone who is desperate to keep our other ideas usually has such weak ideas that they fall to the simplest questioning. Puritans were authoritarians who were being asked basic questions and didn't like it... Basically proto fascists who had the option to GTFO and took it. Then repressed and murdered native Americans en masse because they were the "other" while promoting uneven applications of laws they set.

Jack Chick made a "career" if it.

This looks to be his handiwork.

EDIT: Volkditty corrected me.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say this is Danny Bulanadi's work instead.
