Turns out the bible people ended up being the gun nuts, not sexually liberated people with tattoos.

I am saying I would not trust him to watch my kids. I never trust religious fucks. They can just pray to make sin go away. How they hell can you trust anyone who thinks wishing at the sky means they can do whatever they want?

Chic tracts. Serious propaganda aimed at convincing 80s children that they will be going to vividly imagined hell if they don't accept Jesus as their lord and savior. I'm not ashamed to say my 12 year old self had a moment of doubt.

They're a great source of meme materials. The D&D one is legendary.

Wow, no kidding about being supportive! I'm pretty impressed by the quality therapy provided here by the Prince of Darkness.

Something tells me the rest of the tract plotline doesn't quite portray it that way.

He even looks concerned. Empathy for others, truly a foreign, evil concept for Fundamentalist Christians.

Hell yeah lol.

I also like how the gal is actually enjoying the date since he's not trying to just immediately grope her boobs/proposition her xD

Based Satan, but it is super creepy that they think that what he's saying is evil.

Boy he really did have to drive home the point that elfstar was learning the really real magic of realness .

I remember reading them fondly as I took a shot in my churches background

Ah, you see the event is always both weak and strong. The enemy is too weak to realize how guns help you protect your rights and your family while at the same time the enemy is very strong and dangerous and is armed to the teeth with guns and wants to take away your rights and kill your family.

These are the 'bad guys with guns', allowed to run free at the liberal indoctrination centers thanks to liberal gun restrictions somehow

6

Ah here the guns are bad because Satan is holding them. If Jesus were holding them they'd be inalienable rights

How long did it take to understand how antithetical alternative facts are to everyone else’s views?

I learned too early and it got me grounded a lot. My brother got bitter he couldnt share them and my sister doesn't think women should vote

I was taught by abeka books that evolution is just a theory so we shouldn't be swayed by it and ray comfort told me intelligent design is proved by a banana. The earth is probably only 6k to 10k years old because really smart people counted back the names in the Bible and multiplied it by the average life span between now and Methuselah.

Fr though I dropped out of college but I got miscellaneous tech certs so im doing just fine. I had to unlearn for years before anything made sense. My grandfather tutored me though and he was a very skilled engineer with pieces in a museum so it made a difference. He was sometimes mean but he liked my curious side where most shut it down.

Bananas do prove intelligent design, but only of the banana -- they were selectively bred by humans to be how they are. Wild bananas were much smaller and stubbier.

Ever pull up a wild onion? I got to give our ancestors credit. It takes a lot of effort to look at this bulb smaller than an acorn and see any potential.

I am sure people who genuinely share this then go on to defend civil gun ownership because it's land of the free

22

Well of course. Because they're the good guys with the guns. It's not the guns that they view as the problem; it's the people using them.

It was only when members of the Black Panthers had assault weapons that Reagan enacted an assault weapons ban. Nevermind all the continuing overt racism that persisted even after black codes were abolished.

It's clear they interpret 2A to mean, "The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed...except those people."

There's so much gold here: the "Drugs" shirt too, and the "Sex" tattoo. But yeah, the monkey shirt is amazing!

Yup to have that "rampant paranoia" In the username the user could use some privacy tracking and online safety to reduce the paranoia anxiety.

Tried reading the old testament with the little one to introduce him to the faith if not the culture.. man those books are fucked up. I don't remember being taken a back by them as a child myself which is the weird part
