How God is like Gunnery Sergeant Hartman

 According to Christians, especially the alt-Right Christians, all of the worlds problems having nothing to do with economic exploitation of the environment or debt enslavement of employees into soul amputating careers that are designed to create an addiction to products that all promise to fill the void they only contribute to creating. No, for Christians, all of the problems in the world are the result of atheists, socialists, and "fags."  And it's as simple as that.

For them, these three "godless" groups have been engaged in a war agaisnt God since Satan decided he wanted to rule rather than serve, because 'they have all been duped by Lucifer and his evil minions into being as selfish as a devoted disciple of Friedrich Hayek and Ayn Rand. And as these agents of evil infiltrate American culture more and more, so the alt-Right crowd claims, they subvert Christianity and prompt God to withdraw the protective grace He has traditionally used to shield the world from such evil like a spiritual prophylactic.

 Conservatives blame the removal of God from public schools  - which is a boldface lie, however, since God was never removed from public schools, as the Court cases concerning this question clearly show, but was simply prevented from being used in public schools as the unofficial mascot for America - for why God decided to withdraw his protective grace from humans, and Americans in particular. (It's ironic that so many of the school shooting are by right-wing Conservatives.) In this way, God is like Gunnery Sergeant Hartman from Full Metal Jacket, who makes it harder on everyone else in order to coerce the majority into disciplining one of their own.

When "disgusting fat body" Private Pyle is found to have effectively "sinned" against the Core by hiding a jelly doughnut in his footlocker, like God, Gunnery Sergeant Hartman decides not to punish Pyle directly, but by punishing the rest of the Platoon instead for failing to give "Prive Pyle the proper motivation!" As Hatman screams at the other recruits:  

Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: [to recruits] Private Pyle has dishonored himself and dishonored the platoon! I have tried to help him, but I have failed! I have failed because you have not helped me! You people have not given Private Pyle the proper motivation! So from now on, whenever Private Pyle fucks up, I will not punish him. I will punish all of you, and the way I see it, ladies, you owe me for one jelly donut! Now, get on your faces! [to Pyle] Open your mouth! [shoving the donut into Pyle's open mouth] They're paying for it; you eat it! [to recruits] Ready, exercise!

This is how Christians see God, screaming at them to "properly motivate" others to "believe" in the righteous anger of God that will befall humanity if they do not repent, and accept that they belong to the blood of Christ as the Jews had belonged to the Pharaohs.  That God uses suffering to coerce people into "serving the law," is not only a direct contradiction to Jesus's claim that "the law was made to serve man," and not the other way around, but it furthermore makes no sense whatsoever when you consider that Christians claim that Hell means God ensures everyone gets their proper deserves in the end anyway.

So why does God feel the need to "punish" humanity en masse for the sins of "atheists, socialist, and fags"? Because Christians say so. And anyone who has a problem with that, deserves to burn for all eternity in hell! Praise baby Jesus!

Why Ben Shapiro is Wrong About BLM

If Ben Shapiro really wants answers to his condemnations of BLM, he should start by reading a few books, and then some. For example, he can find all of the answer's he's looking for in: Slavery By Another Name , by Douglas Blackmon, which shows how "thousands of African Americans were pulled back into forced labor with shocking force and brutality," right up until the 1970s, when I was still in grade school. The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness , by Civil Rights litigator and legal scholar, Michelle Alexander, which explains how "mass incarceration" under the ruse of a War on Drugs, has effectively created a caste system that is as pronounced in America today as it was in the Jim Crow south, if not more. Ghosts of Jim Crow , which was written by Constitutional Law Professor, F. Michael Higgenbotham, which explains in great detail how "the shadows of Jim Crow era laws and attitudes continue to perpetuate insidious, ...

Father Mike's Omniscience About Transgenderism

The major problems in the world are the result of the difference between how nature works and how people think. Gregory Batson I f my perception doesn't match up with reality, it's not reality that has to change, it's my perception.   Fr. Mi ke Schmitz Despite the ever growing mountain of evidence about the nature of transgenderism, Fr. Mike Schmitz simply refuses to change his perception. And that's because his "perception," is not only based on nothing but his "beliefs," but because selling those "beliefs" is his one and only job! The problem, if he were truly trying to follow in the footsteps of Christ, is he would stop trying to sell people what he "believes" is the truth, and he would try to actually start trying to FIND THE TRUTH instead.  NOT DOING SO, however, is simply an act of his own spiritual pride, and nothing else. WHY DO CHRISTIANS PREFER THEIR BELIEFS TO THE TRUTH?  Probably because th...

The Height of Arrogance of Christian Humility

 "To think that the ruler of the universe will run to my assistance and bend the laws of nature for me is the height of arrogance. That implies that everyone else (such as the opposing football team, driver, student, parent) is de -selected, unfavored by God, and that I am special, above it all." Dan Barker, Losing Faith in Faith: From Preacher to Atheist (Madison, WI: FFRF, 1992), p. 109. What could be more arrogant than to believe in miracles? To believe that the supreme ruler of the universe has not only bent the laws of nature by which everyone else is bound, but that such a ruler did so as a special favor to you, and also as a special message and invitation to you, which that ruler intentionally withholds from everyone else.  Even the person who believes they know something is a miracle believes that their knowledge of miracles is itself a special knowledge, amounting to a kind of miracle in and of itself, that the God who performed the miracle bestows to his chosen ...
