We are actually living in a time where Christians see mercy as offensive, empathy as a sin, and diversity, equity, and inclusion as a threat.
“Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness.” -Isaiah 5:20
Lord, have mercy.
@kevinmyoung I genuinely for the longest time thought this was a short way of say Merry Christmas and Happy New Year all at once bcs you won't see ppl again until after both holidays have passed. Only when people started getting triggered by it did it even occur to me that it was religious
@Autistic_Lauren I LOVE IT. An entire season dedicated to traditions. Yes, when things don't happen the same way they usually do, it can be incredibly stressful, but the routine of everyone wanting to do things the same each year is so fun for me bcs it's so normalized.
@The_Kyle_Mann There are 3 categories of Xmas movie:
1. Xmas purist - Christmas is central to the plot/message of the movie
2. Xmas -adjacent - Set at Xmas time but not plot-anchored
3. Personal tradition - Not Christmas related, but due to cultural/family tradition, is watched at Xmas time
@JoJoFromJerz THEY ARE WRONG but the logic is...less vaccinated children = less autism, less autism = less need to provide special needs services. Their false premise and evil conclusion DOES make sense by their logic.
We should not ask, “What is wrong with the world?” for that diagnosis has already been given. Rather, we should ask, “What has happened to salt and light?”
