Lol

You’re in an anarchist community… Do you consider yourself an anarchist? Because you sound like a liberal

There’s always xcancel. Does that not solve most people’s concern?

again, a deal with the devil is by definition, a rejection of God.

Again, not inherently.

murder is on the list of unforgivable sins.

Literally King David himself is a stark example to the contrary. Paul too. Are you just saying things and hoping they’re true? What do you think unforgivable means?

there are five or six places in the new testament alone that list unforgivable sins.

Care to cite the scripture you’re referencing? I’m not aware of such passages. Regardless, if they do exist, I assume they’re effectively overwritten by Jesus later doing the whole forgiving everyone’s sins by dying thing

I’m not even religious anymore, I don’t know why I’m so invested in this

there are a dozen listed sins that are unforgivable. You just have to look for them.

Both Matthew 12:30-32 and Mark 3:20-29 clearly state otherwise. Idk what Bible you’re reading.

a deal with the devil is automatically considered blasphemy against God, and thus an unforgivable sin.

While making a deal with the devil is often viewed as a form of blasphemy, the unforgivable sin- blasphemy against the Holy Spirit- involves an ultimate rejection of God’s truth and grace, which isn’t necessarily inherent to making a deal with the devil.

Add in the sin of Pride, and Johnny is damned.

Pride is a forgivable sin

Christianity’s whole thing is that no sin is unforgivable (except deliberate rejection of the Holy Spirit’s work/testimony about Jesus (Mark 3:20-28))

I’m not that cool lol, it’s a BERSA Thunder 380

@jake_farm@sopuli.xyz ^(it’s still not showing me your comments, and I don’t think mentioning you again in an edit will notify you)

@jake_farm@sopuli.xyz for some reason your comment thread isn’t showing up for me, even after an hour to federate

The inkblot cards are silly on purpose, which I use as an icebreaker sometimes, and the secret ingredient is in the pocket on the left side of the bag, above the inkblot cards (it’s a handgun, and I don’t actually keep it in that bag lol (I keep it in my pants))

I would def recommend looking into local mutual aid groups in your area. If there aren’t any, starting a Food Not Bombs group yourself is relatively simple if you have the time and resources to devote to it, even if it starts out being just one day per month until more people get involved.

More specific examples are pretty dependent on location, resources, etc.

There’re ‘roles’ for everyone though, according to their ability, whether it’s lower risk stuff like creating/curating/sharing content (entertainment, propaganda), emotional/moral support, calling out transgressions- and these examples exist on their own spectrums of ‘extremeness’: from posting a leftist meme on Lemmy, to wheatpasting it downtown; from being nice to a leftist online, to being someone’s emergency contact and bailfunder; responding to a racist comment on Lemmy, to smashing the window of a car with a racist bumper sticker.

Personally, I try to model every aspect of my life around anarchist principles, so I evaluate everything through that lens to help determine what behavior is most congruent with my values (at an acceptable risk level). Not that I actively do this all the time though, to be clear- it’s more like a heuristic mindfulness that has become mostly second nature with practice

Do you have a specific risk tolerance limit in mind? Getting involved in local mutual aid orgs is always a great option (e.g., Food Not Bombs)

How does this have 30+ upvotes? So inconsiderate, holy hell. Deal with your dog’s shit yourself- why is that a controversial concept?
