Jesus is next to God sitting on a throne? ... I thought Jesus was God and God was Jesus in one in the same trinity-what-ever-you-want-to-call-it

Mark 16:19:

“So then the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was taken up into heaven and sat down at the right hand of God.”

Not that I believe in this crap, but knowing it has been helpful when watching Jeopardy.

This is actually funny, because on the comic Jesus is on the left side

God's webcam reverses the image. I hate it, too. You try to explain it to him and you can just see his eyes glaze over in less than a second.

Are YOU going to be the one to tell Jesus he's in the wrong seat?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

I'm gonna tell Jesus to pull a cunt over his head and fuck off to Norway

Writing that out in English feels very weird

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

I gotta say that it doesn't get much better in Dutch.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

Reading that in English feels very weird.

Well, once you pointed it out.

Thor & Oden awaits

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

maybe he's English and doesn't know right from left?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

Well you see God the Son is seperate from God the Father, but they're also the same guy, both are part of God, but are individuals who can coexist, but God consists of them and the Holy Spirit, completely unrelated guy but also the same guy, all three are god, but individuals, but they can't be too individual, then they wouldn't be God, cause all three make God. Just make sure you know they're seperate. Or are they?

(Idk too much about this, I just find it confusing)

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 weeks ago

Huh. It's almost like someone just made this up as they went.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

I'm biased but I honestly believe Jesus was preaching some form of pantheism in his day, only for it to be misconstrued and abused for power.

A lot of the holy trinity (or is that a Cajun food thing? I don't remember.) stuff and other passages make sense from this perspective rather than a 'we're seperate from some anthropomorphic god, who by the looks of it doesn't have the best track record.' perspective.

training for accepting whatever the church tells you regardless of if it makes sense or contradicts itself openly

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

Iirc that's what trinitarian sects believe, non- or anti-trinitarian sects specifically do not.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Reminds of that part in the Bible where Moses strikes the rock and the water comes out and Moses is just too dang modest about the water, so God doesn't let him into the promise land.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Wasn't the reason that he hit the rock rather than talking to it?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, the actual reason was that he hit the rock and didn't praise God enough when he did it. Or something like that. It's been awhile since I've been in a church.

i've seen this guys shit before and never really thought it was any good, and always at least just a little bit racist. I can say for certainty that I continue to think that his shit isn't very good and contains some racist shit.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

This is the onions cartoonists parodying right-wing political comics. The whole point is to say that right-wing political comics aren't very good and contain some racist shit.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

Ah that would explain it

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I hope you are shit posting. But in case you aren't, this is satire.

I didn't realize I was on the onion, you may roast me. Spit roast me, even.
