About

This is the official Lemmy for the r/ReligiousCringe***** subreddit. This is a community about poking fun at the religious fundamentalist's who take their religion a little bit too far. Here you will find religious content that is so outrageous and so cringeworthy that even someone who is mildly religious will cringe.

  2. Material about religious bigots made by non-bigots is only allowed from Friday-Sunday EST. In an effort to keep this community on the topic of religious cringe and bigotry we have decide to limit stuff like atheist memes to only the weekends.

  3. No direct links to religious cringe. To prevent religious bigots from getting our clicks and views directs links to religious cringe are not allowed. If you must a post a screenshot of the site or use archive.ph. If it is a YouTube video please use a YouTube frontend like Piped or Invidious

What in the fuck is even going on? These women are just cosplaying as nuns to push their bullshit Dominist agenda? Can the Catholic Church sue them or something? I just hate how stupid and unbelievable our reality has become.

While these women are obviously religious fanatics, they are not officially connected to the Catholic church. https://www.vice.com/en/article/pkdwb9/catholic-church-has-an-i-dont-know-her-moment-with-trump-rally-nuns

That's a good article. The Catholic Church can't say "they're not us and they're fucking nuts" but they came close.

Article TLDR: Catholic Church said those are not us, they're Dominicans. In short, these ladies look forward to living the Handmaid's Tale and already behave like it, complete with habits.

For the record Dominican Nuns are an official monastic sect recognized by the Catholic church. They were started in 1206 by Saint Dominic de Guzman and are one of the 5 largest monastic Catholic religious sects today*. So the Church didnt say "they arent us because they're Dominicans." They essentially said "we don't recognize those women as Dominican nuns".

Note:*I think they may move up even higher on the list if you include monks as well as nuns...since friars are medicant and not monastic but poor Claire's are monastic? Someone with more knowledge of Catholic religious orders may know more.

I'd be happy if we (Germany) stopped paying the church

Why so much hate for the Bene Gesserit? All they ever did was to meddle in the affairs of mankind in an attempt to produce a Messiah they could control?

[–] JackGreenEarth@lemm.ee 8 points 7 months ago (1 children)

And more importantly, why are the Bene Gesserit wearing TRUMP scarves?

[–] CaptDust@sh.itjust.works 6 points 7 months ago

Well you see BG had been grooming trump since he was a child. Biden too. Basically every leader we've known, is only because the reverend mother deemed it so. Civil wars are merely a squabble across the galactic timeline. It is nature that planets rise and fall, sometimes prematurely, but it is a condition they have prepared for.

The sleeper must awaken!

Ignorant cunts.

What a bunch of fuckin frauds

[–] ParabolicMotion@lemmy.world 7 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

I’m surprised they would dress as nuns and then support Trump. Biden is the one that is Catholic.
