ngl the jesus fandom is a little bit problematic. like, the fanart is GREAT and i think some of their fanartists came over from the TMNT fandom based on their urls?? not sure tho. but like that doesn't excuse the blatant whitewashing and the problems with the source material.

i haven't read the bible yet it's pretty hefty but the resurrection arc wasn't really my favorite. like i get that (SPOILERS) jesus died to save everyone, but ngl god killing his only son like that?? this man has got to have daddy issues.

also i've heard that the jesus stans actually like, killed people for not believing what they did. i knew the discourse and the toxicity there was insane but like what?? apparently if you don't agree with their headcannons they threaten to send you to the shadow realm???

anyways yeah end of post make sure to educate yourselves and keep an eye on who follows you, buh-bye ^_^

#ray's tag #christianity was the original fandom discourse and i take no fucking criticism #i cant wait to see the anons we get from this

I always find it funny when I see a homophobic WoF fan. How do you even do the mental gymnastics to be in a fandom where there are not only so many canon queer characters, but an infinite supply of headcanons and queer ships. Buddy, you're in the Gay Dragons fandom, how do you still "not agree" with their existence?

#I know very well that they're kids who come from Christian backgrounds and probably have only listened to the word from their parents #But still like...sweetheart you're in the Homosexual Reptiles fandom. How do you even survive? #wof #wings of fire #tw: homophobia #sp-rambles

see my brain just doesn’t register the idea of anyone having a ‘one true love’ which is why the common fandom tropes of making canonical love interests terrible in order to justify why your ship is better always bugs the shit out of me. it feels like the only reason you would do that is if the idea of the characters in your ship having any other sort of romantic relationship that was important to them, even in the past, is a threat to their current one, therefore all their past relationships need to be demonized in order to make them ‘not real love’ so that they remain pure and chaste and ready for the True Love of the endgame ship.

#im not crazy right like other people notice that trope ajd get annoyed by it right #its a very weird trope to be so common from my perspective because like. why not just. break up the couple you dont want. #for reasons that arent ‘i made this person into a charicature of themselves to justify why my blorbo would have never actually loved them’ #you know? its weird. its weird right? #and then of course there’s the offshoot of this that intersect with fandom misogyny where that demonized person is usually the female love #interest. or sometimes not even that. sometimes she was just standing there a little too close to one of the guys and that made people feel #insecure about their ship so they make her a bitch. gwen cooper. im. im talking about gwen cooper. people do this to gwen cooper and ill #never know peace about that. #anyway. is there a word for like. heteronormativity for monogomous people. because thats what i think this falls under. #because it is a very. like its a very conservatively monogomous idea. i feel like it is not unrelated to christian values of not having sex #before you’re married. that maybe someone in fandom might manage to ditch that particular ruleset to make their blorbos fuck nasty but NOT #the underlying idea of it that you can only ever have One Person you share that love and intimacy with. so you still end up perpetuating the #same toxic beliefs. you know? sorry im rambling it just annoys me

Jesus loves you my trans followers

evangelical churches have tried everything to make kids growing up in church stay and to gain new young members in general. they have tried everything from rock music to club nights to summer camps. but modern times require modern solutions. i think it's time for the church to tap into the lucrative market of boy x boy yaoi

#the material is abundant. the bible a source never-ending #bible fandom #i'm sure my very religious father would be proud to know that i have finally returned back to my bible studies after a decade astray #for fujoshi reasons #my brother wrote his bachelor thesis on ruth from a lesbian perspective and i'm reblogging fanart of judas and jesus making out on tumblr #we all grew up as fine christians i believe #he speaketh

there was some display gallery showing off the various logos in hypmic and the ichikuu peeps on the tl were in shambles over both of them using halos in their mc name signatures lol

#vee queued to fill the void #i understand lol this is a pretty big deal like actually lol #one fan suggested an nb logo could have angel imagery since nb was under stairway to heaven #another in a very fast paced series of tweets cried about it being potential sign of ichiro and kuukou’s bond spanning from life #but even into their deaths and beyond when they reunite in heaven (and even pointed out the meaning of stairway to heaven) #and goddamn i sure love being jacked into the hypmic hive mind i can’t believe i was just musing about kuukou and death #and then directly got food for thought LOL but ichiro!!!!!!! i wasn’t expecting ichiro lol!!!!!! #but bb has been weirdly associated with christmas aka the birth of jesus #who gave his life for humanity and i am too in shambles no way does both ichiro and kuukou have self sacrifice themes NO WAY #god i remember when the hella awesome banquet mv dropped and bat fandom banded together to dissect the video #one person commented it’s strange to see kuukou in association with catholic/christian imagery #but posted a wiki article talking about the similarities between buddha and jesus and the ideologies in those religions #*crying* i even posted about it the black crown above kuukou’s head was both catholic and buddhist and meant to be beneficial for humanity #ichiro constantly being shaken to his core by sacrifices…….. him trying to show the nation the path of hope………… #this is so much lol i love getting food for thought from random observations and drops lol

I. Hurt.

And I was hurting anyway, I'm pretty down this morning, but this hurt came from an outside source, and affected me in a way I'd honestly not have expected.

See, we bought Nimona last week. After seeing the movie, my kids wanted to read it. And I ended up reading ahead, and I just finished it.

Bonus content at the end, it said, and I was like, oh, an epilogue to the epilogue maybe? That'd be nice. I don't love bittersweet endings, I'd rather...

...no, it's not the conclusion.

It's CHRISTMAS.

In a book that'd had no religion that I noticed up to that point, BOTH bonus extras...were Christmas.

Ya know, usually it doesn't bother me. Usually I just suck it up. I think it helps that I was raised around mostly Jews and people who, if Christian, it didn't matter much to them. I'm from the Upper West Side of Manhattan, the descendent of Lower East Side immigrants, and while the world outside was brutal - my grandfather was a World War 2 veteran and among the soldiers who liberated Dachau, I can't remember a time when I didn't know that most people would look the other way if people like me were slaughtered wholesale - my bubble was safe, we were accepted, we were insiders.

I honestly can't think of another time I've interacted with a piece of media and felt so immediately, instantly knocked across the face by OUTSIDER as I just did when I excitedly turned the page to see what these fun extra bonuses were...and it was fucking Christmas.

I didn't even read them.

I'm honestly. So disappointed.

I don't have a thick armor for this kind of hurt. I'm Jewish, and as an adult living outside my old UWS bubble, that's often meant I've felt like an outlier, but I've hardly ever had this feeling where I was welcome to something only to be suddenly, violently shoved out the door.

And I've heard nothing, n.o.t.h.i.n.g. but praise for this book. And on another day, it might not have bothered me. I've never really felt like I had to fight to be seen, especially since I'm tremendously secular. I mean, I've celebrated Christmas my entire life, for starters.

But why. Why was this fantasy setting suddenly Christian? Why was this the touted extra content? Why is THIS special, when the areligious world established to that point was apparently not special enough?

I can't say yet if this ruined the story for me. It's far too soon. But I'm *intensely*, viscerally let down, and...I hurt.

Christians...maybe stop doing this shit.

#unforth rambles #im not sure how to tag this #i dont want to tag fandom since its kinda anti #and i dont want to tag antisemitism cause its not really #and i dont want to tag microaggressions cause thatll just show my privilege that ive been lucky enough to not have this feeling more often #but seriously WHAT THE FUCK #im genuinely considering rereading just so i can see if it was always christian and i just missed it until then #because its so fucking ubiquitous that it slides right off #but i dont think it was!!! #WHYS IT GOTTA BE CHRISTIAN WHAT THE HELL #and why have i never heard this mentioned surely im not the only person to notice this #maybe it was less jarring for people who rwad along with the webcomic #since these were extras released along thw qay #not shoved in the back of the book like in the print edition #i dont fucking know #i just know i hate it #this special fun thing could have been anything #and instead it was for one specific segment of the audience #and thats honestly so unnecessary and kinda yicky #dont you guys every get tired of making everything about your fucking dumb holidays you stole from other cultures #give me back passover i demand you turn over easter as a reparation

Love the idea of trickster Lucifer/The Devil who tries to manipulate and psychologically torture everyone into leaving god and taking away all their chance to be redeemed.

But I'm hungry to see Michael never falling for it.

And I don't mean the Archangel who goes down to his level to make people still have faith, who also hurts others and even his own to go against the devil. Neither do I also mean the Archangel who is blinded by faith and does whatever he wants because he can't fall, or even the Archangel who acts just as pompous and prideful as any other prince.

I clave for the Archangel who fails and learns his lessons, who always gets hurt in the end but never gives up on humanity, the one that became so human it breaks him entirely, the Archangel chief prince that rules through heaven and the pressure of it holds him forever. The Archangel whose faith doesn't waver, whose scars are visible like those of a warrior, whose mind is sharp from the ages and wise from its confrontarions with the devil. The one who is patient enough to hold a conversation with the worst of kind, the one who has learned resilience from the humble and recieved strength from the loveless. The one that has been through the war and never forget it, but neither does it forget to love the enemy through it.

#rant: #that talk with the devil and michael over his body and the whole thing of jesus being tempted as a human by the devil always made me wonder #if the angels after the fall of Lucifer would also be subjected to more of that #possibly even better manipulation than the ones before the fall #so i tried to gather my two braincells to think how the angels could be portrayed. and especially how important it was to remain #to the teachings of god #especially for michael who has to show the best parts of a leader and a warrior but also a protector and an angel like any other #and i do love to think he can talk to the worst. he has earned every human trait and honed it. #and just as well also fall to it. the thing is he quickly tries to regain himself with rhe help of god. #where as Jesus was born perfect as it was and meant to be the perfect one. #like i kinda see the angels each one try to reflect a part of humanity they have learned from them and being influenced by it. #angelology #angels #bible fandom #abrahamic mythology #abrahamic religions #michael/lucifer #Christianity #headcanons

you know I knew Bible fanfiction existed but I never really clocked how Jesus could be a character. you know. like the actual guy. people are just making shit up about him.

#which i suppose may not be too different from a lot of the bible itself #but to think i'm in the christianity fandom. im in the catholic subculture #thats hilarious lmao #existenceunrelateds #i was searching “christmas” btw #christianity #catholicism #religion #i wont cw religion this since i don't think this could be particularly harmful to anyone #some fanfic writer's gonna make the new Paradise Lost

I feel like Shirley Bennet is definitely the kind of religious person who remains vaguely homophobic on the stance of holier than thou godliness but once she knows someone who is gay is like- "oh. Oh dear. The gays are NOT reincarnations of Satan. Turns out. They're actually quite nice. Hm" and then slowly transitions into a quiet but firm ally.

#you may not believe me #but its happened before #growing up in a Christian school you see a lit of kids go from “homosexuality is wrong” to either not giving a fuck or listing their #favorite drag queens #community fandom #community tv show #community #community show #shirley bennet

[filipinawritcr]

Before we celebrate the upcoming Christmas this year, do you ever just wonder how Jesus must've felt when he and his family were displaced due to his very existence? And up until now, his existence as a Palestinian Jew is often being dismissed by those who never cared about humanity at all, despite the fact they are human.

Now I wonder how he must've felt when he found out that his people and homeland were both being erased in the hands of those who say they share the same religion as him, but in the end, tried to destroy everything that he was fighting for when he was still alive.

Sometimes I wish he was reincarnated again, but would've never been executed like he had been before... by those who have oppressed his kind.
