Point taken, but I still think you're giving this guy way too much credit lol.
I am guessing op is mid teens, raised in faith. Nothing wrong with that but it explains a bit of the breathless naivete'. At least they're curious! Maybe we'll see em shitposting in c/athiesm in a few years.
OP made a post (since deleted) where he talked about watching so much anime about zombie girls, he started to actually fall in love with them, but then he realized that zombies are brought to life by necromancy and necromancy is Not Very Christian, so he then swore off all anime.
Nah, I can't take OP seriously at all lmao.
Lol the more i learn the more i definitely don't want to flame op, so precious. If we could just help steer them safely towards the loving ned Flanders/high School coach-type and away from all them mass shooter hate pits i would be sooo happy
I remember that post. They mentioned disliking zombification, but the damn show is called Zombieland Saga, so that should not have been a surprise. They also mentioned trans people, and one of the girls is explicitly shown to be trans in episode 8. I have my suspicion about which one was the actual problem for them.
There is just enough genuine curiosity in OP that I believe, or genuinely hope, they are slowly starting to disentangle conservative teachings from Christianity. They're in a pit, both curious and afraid of what lies outside of it. I want them to get out of it. I want to believe they can be saved.
Yes, I may be being too optimistic. But I still hope.
