What kind of unchristian monster would want to stay home and rest on a Sunday instead of going to the enormous effort of getting the family into all your best clothes, going to the church and pretending to be socially acceptable and normal for a few hours and then cooking a massive meal like god intended?
Looking nice and spending time reflecting on your morals and interacting with your community - ooooh nooooo!
I’m not religious, but seriously, it you remove all the “hate gay people” rhetoric, going to church is a positive thing for both the individual and the community. Hating on it just makes you look like a neckbeard.
Sorry. It’s great that you find peace and love in your faith and I have love for everyone who does.
My comment was in response to the terrible atheist guy in the image wanting to stay home on Sunday and the church promoting Sunday as a day of rest in reflection of God resting on the seventh day of creation. Getting you and your family dressed up, acting normal (at least for me) and then making a meal is not how I would present a restful day.
Going to church is a way to make people conform. Maybe, once upon a time, we needed belief in supernatural beings to cope with the world. I choose to believe in the world the Enlightenment started. I wasn’t raised with any religion and I still learned how to be a good person and good member of society.
Let’s reverse it a little…
What kind of unchristian monster would want to stay home and self isolate on Sunday instead of going through the routine of dressing up and going to church to spend time in chill and self reflective manner and socialising a bit afterwards just to go home after that and have a family dinner?
I have nothing against anyone lol. Believe, or don’t, into anything <3 Or nothing.
He isn’t sitting quietly by himself, he’s self-isolating.

“Day of rest” my ass, that sounds like a lot of work!
