My favourite thing about this post is all the actual sound Christians on bsky responding with dismay/derision at how weak this vapid loser’s faith must be. I like you guys 🖤
Beat me to it, I guess. But really, what kind of God does he believe in!? Well, whatever kind he is, you're very welcome to kill him. Deicide is underrated.
Thanks for that. It really grinds my gears when people assume all Christians cosign this nonsense. I always try to be good ally, in my foolish and ignorant way.
I’m absolutely stoked to be able to contribute! Have been for decades when I think about since I lived w a trans friend 20 years ago. Been killing god bit by bit this whole time & that just feels so good, you know? 🤘😌
That would be a very fragile god, leaving aside that trans people have been here all along and somehow God seems to have made it this far and sometimes had plural pronouns in Hebrew (right @theradr.bsky.social?) .
Elohim as a name of God is technically "deities," plural, or you could interpret as deity's they/them moment. Also God both Avinu ("our father"); El Shaddai (shaddaim are breasts) & HaRahaman (Rehem is womb); Shechinah (gendered F) & DO NOT get me going on the extreme genderfuckery in Kabbalah...
I mean, considering their church is at heart about money, removing rights and autonomy from women and children, and an obsession with fertility, well, being on the opposite side of them is seldom a bad thing.
Hard-right Catholics haven't left trans people alone for at least 50 years.
Honestly cannot for the life of me figure out why they're so desperate to protect and shuffle known sex predators around.
Also just shocking that they are such notorious child abusers and neglecters - c.f. orphanages, residential schools - that you'd almost think they engaged in child sacrifice.
Trans rights are causing the death of God - but God's (theoretical) church actively aiding its own officials in sexually abusing children doesn't bother him at all.
Am I understanding that correctly, Cardinal?
"The annihilation of Man as the image of God" is what monotheism actually demands. Like, this stuff is what God is waiting around for people to figure out they should do.
Pretty sure the death of their God was caused by a combination power-hungry politicians, leftist in-fighting, and imperialism, but they don’t want to hear that.
Mostly lapsed Christian here but any God that is killed by respect and love for humanity sucks and is worthy of scorn. (ps God made everybody, especially trans people. die mad about it weirdos)
I'm Catholic (Retired) and I'm pretty sure that if respect and love for all kills the entity you're worshipping, you might not be worshipping God, but instead, maybe The Other Guy
i thought God was supposed to be all-powerful and all-knowing, and therefore logically impervious to any opposition, who has a divine plan for everyone, which, considering trans ppl exist, implies they're part of said divine plan
which would logically mean that God created trans people for a reason
Every time something like this is said I feel more powerful. Apparently I can kill the omnipotent creator of the universe by wanting to be called Tiernan at the doctor
If god is so weak it can be killed by its own supposed creation, let it die. Trans people have always been here. The liberation of trans people has been a long time coming.
if your god is so weak that trans people existing can kill them, they deserve to die. Bring back the old gods! Zeus and Odin would welcome trans people in with their proper pronouns!
That's the part I shake my head at, too. I have no doubt God loves us all... no exceptions. All the attempts to divide us - those are ok; those are bad - isn't how we're supposed to love.
Why is it that so many people cannot accept the premise of being born into the wrong body? If god exists I think they would say, Hell Yeah! I didn’t make any imperfect humans, love y’all.
I cited that verse to mom last month. She lost her mind loudly saying I was taking out of context. Poor lass has denied Christ so often the rooster went hoarse.
Nothing better than questioning my fervently religious family members on why Christian God is gendered. Making them talk through the logical conclusions of what that means is never not funny.
Much depends on their branch of Christianity. If my Episcopal mother were alive, I'd ask her opinion on God's gender and expect a thoughtful answer. I wouldn't ask a Roman Catholic priest, though.
So guys who follow a book about a male rib becoming a female want to say following the rules Jesus set out is killing god if you are targeting trans people...
I would love to ask him how the existence of lgbt people is effecting the divine especially when there are queer people within the church who are just as faithful as him
See this is why I have Theology beef with Catholics, also God Debunked Catholicism 1400 years ago, God loves Trannies (trust me this logic is perfectly sound it is just really complicated like literally everything and is counterintuitive but simplicity is a lie)
How weak is their god that it can be diminished by the existence of trans people? I can't imagine why anyone would worship a deity they clearly don't respect.
“God blessed me by making me transsexual for the same reason God made wheat but not bread and fruit but not wine, so that humanity might share in the act of creation.” - Daniel Mallory Ortberg, Something That May Shock and Discredit You
Not sure which is more true: Trans people are strong enough to slowly kill god, or god is quite weak if some people getting equal treatment is causing him to die.

Ooh it could be the new Be Gay, Do Crime!
Be Trans, Kill God!

perhaps its time to attack and dethrone God?
@godpod.bsky.social, thoughts?
"Ok.. Fine I'll do it! Are you happy now?! I'M DOING IT! I'M KILLING IT RIGHT NOOOOOW!!!
didn't seem any weaker either.
Simply pathetic of their Deity.

Funny how the supposedly most pious and holy forsake Yeshua so much when, last I checked, the only thing he hated was hypocrites like this cardinal.
Wait.
Hold on a sec.
All it takes to kill God is... giving transgender people rights?!!?!
LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!1!1!!!
How weak and how small is your god that my existing and being treated like a human lessens him?
EVE STARTED OFF AS ONE OF ADAM'S SIDES.
ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS GOD DID WAS MAKE A TRANS PERSON.
Can I have his job?
Random person: [puts "all-gender restroom" sign on door]
God: Noooooooooooo!
which would logically mean that God created trans people for a reason
The whole world sees religious people's hateful behaviour towards LGBT people and their instinctive reaction is 'yuck', a natural disgust.
If that's who represented me i'd die too.
Me in the office: actually, it's Tiernan, it should be on my notes.
God: *dies*
I've always wanted an opportunity to bust out a, "Your god is weak!" on someone.

Meanwhile, I’m wondering how to kill God faster.
Is he saying God is weak enough to be killed by mortals? I think that may count as heresy.
Now just by coming out I am so DANGEROUS. :)
I'd say 70/30 split.
You could even call it the lord's work
