@toxoplasmosis @Flatulenator this is a perspective informed by your aforementioned attempt to wear edgelord goth satanist shit to church at age 16 (i.e. yesterday), on the theory that "FUCK YOU DAD" and "I bet you've never seen somebody like ME before" that got you thrown the fuck out because lmao of course it did, decent people don't have to put up with your gynocentric attention-seeking horseshit
it's very simple: most Christians are not going to forcibly convert you, but neither are we going to allow you to insult us without consequence, or shit in our culture (and yes it is our culture, from which you are an apostate that we mercifully allow to exist until you come to your fucking senses or become so deranged that you need to be restrained)
if you look at Islam (which is the natural next step in your personal development arc, when you decide to swoon over how UNFATHOMABLY BASED sand-niggers are but can't bring yourself to the monotheism of your actual forefathers), or any other "serious" religion/social structure, you will discover precisely the same intolerance - you can believe whatever you want, as long as you do it quietly, but you are going to keep it to yourself and you are not going to shit all over decent people's lives with your edgelord LARPing, or you will taste a whip (or, in extreme instances, a sword)
hope that helps
(find Jesus, son)
