Magnificent wisdom, brother. I'm a Christian. I like big turds under my butt.

>implying the king james bible representation of god is entirely accurate
>looking at the bible for facts instead of interpreting the moral philosophies behind the story
Your image is fitting. Did your mom think standing next to microwaves while pregnant would help you to tell when they were about to go off?

/lit/ is not your religious battleground

>>13379662
it is that and nothing more - everyone saying otherwise is a pseud & believes in scientism anyway

>>13379669
Where should I go to discuss books?
Any good subreddits seriously I’m starting to think everything 4chan believes is wrong so many they were wrong about reddit

>>13379633
Butterfly girl would blow your cock if she was beside you right now, beside you in your putrid surroundings, you filthy fucking vile dumb cunt.

>>13379669
>>13379633
Take it to >>>/x/
That's the paranormal and religion board.

>>13379669
Blow your fucking head off with a shotgun.

>>13379676
We need a ducking /rel/ board we fucking need one /his/ did not work

>>13379673
you shouldn't try to discuss books online, all online discussion is shit if you're beyond the very very very entry level stuff

>>13379683
It's an easy solution really: create a /rel/igion board and remove humanities from /his/ and make an /art/ board for humanities.

>>13379679
shout laughter bro

>>13379689
Right, then you’re equipped to speak with intelligent individuals in academia, God, I hope there are intelligent individuals in academia.

>>13379692
desu i hate literature people talking about arts other than literature, they always concentrate on the most irrelevant stuff

>>13379692
High iq post.
Please make a /qa/ thread

>>13379669
it's supposed to be on /his/ but nooo~ because /lit/ is just a lil more popular. IT BELONGS ON /HIS/

>>13379699
lmao youre gonna be disappointed boy

t academic

>>13379706
Then don’t go to the board

>>13379723
what board? i like talking about literature

We have a literature board, /lit/, we have a history and humanities board, /his/, so how about this. We have a /rel/ general thread on /his/, and also a /theology/ or just /theo/ general thread on this board.

>>13379728
You have it all wrong
/his/ - History
/lit/ - Literature
/art/ - Humanities
/rel/ - Religion & Theology

>>13379738
more boards? i know it's happened many times before, but i just don't know if it's worth while to divide traffic like that.

>>13379742
Slow boards are a blessing. Thought goes into the posts that are written.

>>13379738
Ok what’s the rules?
Is discussion of the Bible on /lit/? What about if it’s for literary sake? How would you regulate that?

>>13379742
/rel/ would not be a particularly slow board I imagine and /lit/ could use less posters

>>13379633
Anon, I'm no fan of Christianity, but please don't make threads like this. You're only going to upset other people. Criticize Christianity by all means, as they certainly deserve it, but making threads like this doesn't help.

It's also really sad to see Christians automatically assume anyone who critiques their faith must be an atheistic scientific materialist. Yes, because not following your specific ideology means we have no receptivity towards any spirituality whatsoever, which only Christians can be. Unbelievable narcissism.

>>13379824
I used to love Christianity even though I’m not one but when I get told consistency I’m going to suffer eternally for viewing God differently than them in 4chan threads it weighs on my patience.
When did all this fire and brimstone madness come onto 4chan?

>>13379633
>t.

>>13379836
It was here before you came from Reddit last week.

>>13379845
Yeah yeah fuck off retard.
It started to appear around 2017 a couple months after the election.

>>13379846

Here’s your (you)

Hell is eternal.

Look what we have come to. We have truly went astray, may God forgive us this sin, the greatest anyone can make.

En quoi ce libertinage vous sera bénéfique quand les flèches de nos cathédrales tomberont et que nos livres seront brûlés?

>>13379871
>Hell is eternal.

... according to the people who use fear to induce you to sign up to their religion. (Muslims do the same thing, by the way).

The only reason anyone should be discussing the Bible on /lit/ is because of its undeniable literary value and its tremendous influence on the Western canon

>>13379836
2016 /pol/. They all see Christianity as the refuge from modern degeneracy, which they themselves participated in until last week (and still do, who are we kidding), and now they're all read up on the history of the faith and have posters of the most famous saints in their rooms. It's just reactionaries who applied themselves to religion alongside politics.

Why haven't the Jannies acted upon the incessant religious baiting? Every day we have at least 3 or 4 blatant bait thread from various religious groups/atheists that do absolutely nothing but serve to provoke. This is not a sectarian issue. It affects everyone negatively to have /b/ tier bait posts on /lit/. I'm all for the discussion for literature that is religious in nature, but there is no literature in this thread nor many of these religion bait threads.

>It's just reactionaries who applied themselves to religion alongside politics.

Almost all historical 'reactionaries' were genuinely religious, apart from a few who thought that the belief-system was a bit ridiculous but that the ceremonies and dogmas could give a bit of structure to an increasingly chaotic world. The /lit/ connection is that some aesthetes such as Oscar Wilde eventually began to believe the same thing

>>13379673
Bookscirclejerk and badlit. This is catastrophically rule breaking, but everybody gets one.

>>13380208
Yeah but the people on /pol/ are a very different breed of person to any typical historical reactionary. Their characters, behaviors and agendas are something quite different.

I'd agree that they're lacking in a traditionally-based, high-quality and Eurocentric education, but whose fault is that? Young white people today have been told since birth that they are the inheritors of an oppressive and toxic civilization, so it's little surprise that the ones unwilling to abase or humiliate themselves have rebelled by instead embracing everything that their teachers and media personalities have told them to avoid, including fascism
