Grindr boy claims that mistreating immigrants is okay by the Bible.
Meanwhile:
Leviticus 19:33–34 When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not mistreat them. The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt.
Protestant is a blanket term for the religions that broke away from the Catholic church after Martin Luther did his crazy tour of nailing shit to posts creating the Lutherans, and of course, the Anglicans broke away from the teachings of Cathol because their fat English king wanted divorces. Evangelicals are a whole other bag of crazy, but fall under the Protestant moniker. There are also the Bapists, the Methodists, the Stupidists and the Iamalwaysrightists.
When I was growing up, I went to Catholic school. It wasn’t this fucking exclusionary. Hell, we had a gay nun who embraced science so fully and taught us what it meant to truly think for ourselves.
Thankfully, though, Catholic school made me realize that I’m a fucking atheist and the only thing that matters to me are how well people get treated and whether we are getting the basic necessities to live.
Yeah I read a bit about some of them, wish I still had the book The Reformation by William and Ariel Durant. I recall the anabaptists that often would have a little revolution in their town, establish like a communist type state with it’s own government and church, they might lock the old leaders in one of those big like bird cage and put them up top over the gates to the city, pretty crazy stuff. The authorities obviously would come through and re-establish “order” after a bit. That was in the 16th century or so.
But it got bloody in the 30 years war in the late 1600s, drawing in almost all the powers of europe at one point or another. All for religion. Central Europe was particularly devastated.
