I cannot for the life of me figure out why, if you believe in Christian Mythology, even to the point of wanting Judgement Day to come during your lifetime, why you would personally take efforts that you know are going to end in mass civilian deaths.
Assuming you are right and Judgement Day is on the horizon, are you not damning yourself to the deepest pits of Hell by spending your time leading up to the Rapture ordering the slaughter of innocent people, rather than say glorifying and spreading the word of God?
I don't believe in any of it, but if I did, I sure wouldn't be advocating for mass-murder right before God shows up to judge me for the way I lived my life on Earth.
Number one rule of Christian Narcissism: That rule was written for the others. It doesn't apply to me. I'm not doing anything wrong.
I am christian because I say I am, therefor everything I do is christian and thus righteous.
You are giving them way too much credit. Any combination of “god wants me to” with “God works in mysterious ways” and “the will of God is 100% infallibly and unerringly good” can justify pretty much any heinous act you can think of.
I agree with you 100%. In my belief, it is God who wills when Judgement Day comes. It is not the will of a human. Christians and Zionists together think they can some how bypass the will of God.
I'm getting a little tired of people using "Zionist" when they actually mean "Jew". Jews don't even have a "judgement day" or even the concept of Hell for that matter, so I quite frankly have no fucking clue what you think you are saying here...
If you have criticism of religion, go for it. If you have criticism of a nation, go for it. But one by one I keep watching people like you knock down the "criticism of Israel isn't antisemitic" house of cards by making it clear you don't see a difference between an Israel apologist and a Jew, and are just using the term "Zionists" as a placeholder for "Jews" so you can make weird blanket statements about Jews...
I wasn't criticizing Jews exclusively. If I want to criticize a Jew or a group of Jews, I will. Idgaf quite frankly.
Judaism =/= Zionism. I'm criticizing the secular political ideology in which cherry picks from Judaism and incorporates it into it's political ideology. Some of the things they cherry pick when it comes to human relations.. is pretty fkin Nazi-like, who am I kidding.. worst than Nazi's treatment of their opposition. Reference the Talmud regarding gentiles.
Neturei Karta is the only Torah practicing Jews that I recognize as my brethren. Because they actually practice the teachings of the Torah. If you're a "practicing Jew" in Israel.. you're doing it wrong. Not because I say so, because your Torah says so.
