Thousands of Southern Baptists overwhelmingly voted Wednesday to advance a formal ban on women pastors in the nation’s largest Protestant denomination, sending a clear message that men alone should preach to these conservative evangelical congregations.
Why are you so angry and judgy? Why would I want to talk to you about anything? No thanks.
Talk about kettle calling the pot black!
WTF? Where do you see anything remotely angry or “judgy”??? (That’s not even a word, are you 8?)
Not OP, but, your comment came off as pretty abrasive and presumptuous.
Damn, basically everyone I know is secretly an 8 yo
I should honestly copy and paste this comment in so many situations. A vegan flipped out on me yesterday for literally just challenging an absolute statement they made. I should’ve just responded how you did.
I know the feeling, I spent way too much time before with that then I realize, I don’t want to do this, why am I defending myself so much all the time against angry people who don’t know me and are missing my point? I don’t even like to argue. Sometimes it feels like Lemmy/Piefed is some kind of psy op to make the left into intolerant assholes as much as the right.
Exactly! So many users act like they’ve been watching you do horrible things for years, based on one comment they didn’t even understand. And if you try to explain what you meant, nope you’re lying, they know you better than you do. Good on you for not taking the bait.
My blocklist is way longer than it would be in a semi-sane world…
I just hope others are doing the same and then maybe we can have a bit more of an open discussion without people have a fear of people jumping down their throats for opening their mouths.
