Did you never make it to season 4? Castiel and Dean are probably the most popular ship for that show.

Cognitive behavioral therapy lol

Again, I get where you’re coming from.

The reality of the situation is that a movement is full of factions. People aren’t a monolith and they think differently and feel differently. Jk Rowling considers herself a feminist, and she is an iteration of what a feminist can look like sadly.

Think of religious sects, they all fall under the same umbrella of Christianity or Judaism or what have you, but have radically different beliefs and feelings.

They get involved in protests and push their agendas just like any other group of people.

Or tankies! They fucking suuuuuuck and they are communist! I like communism by the way, but tankies can eat and then shit out some Lego blocks.

I get where you’re coming from, but I vehemently disagree. That’s just the no true Scotsman fallacy.

I prefer to read the Abrahamic religious books as a legendary/mythological account of history, not outright historical. The people who wrote these books had an agenda to push and by studying it we can get an idea of what their intentions were in wrtiting them down. You can’t fully understand some of the stories in the Bible if you don’t have some understanding of the culture and history and beliefs of the people that wrote them. Context is vital.

I’d love to hear how you think it would change my life? It’s fun to get different perspectives.

I’ve always hated the idea of original/inherited sin. It’s such a cruel idea to me.

You realize that Jews, the people who wrote the Hebrew Bible that makes up what Christians call the old Testament, didn’t and do not believe in original sin? That’s a later christian invention, doesn’t even go back to Jesus.

Christians are the only ones that believe in original sin, right? I could never take that idea seriously after actually reading genesis.

Wouldn’t Target and Walmart disappearing just open the market for a locally owned small business, or maybe even multiple, to take their place?

Doesn’t need to be a corporation that fills that niche.
