I thought about saying “you know it’s a grift when they collect personal information and leak it.” According to their Bible, you don’t need an app to pray. They say church (or a covenant, I forget, it’s been 30+ years since I read the KJV) is when any two people come together to talk about Jesus (sorry!). So, where does an app fit in? And why does that app need your personally identifiable information (referred to as PII in industry). Wouldn’t an all-knowing God already have it?

But you don’t have to know it’s a grift… I feel like this is proof the Vatican (or whoever made this app on their behalf, and thus speak on their behalf… and the Pope allegedly speaks on God’s behalf) themselves know it’s a grift. Because why would they need your PII?

I know, fools and their money are soon parted… just saw this on /all and figured the Fediverse’s top Atheism comm should have it.

    1. No, because historians arent God

    2. It isn’t

    3. He did

    4. Genesis 2:19 Therefore, the Lord God, having formed from the soil all the animals of the earth and all the flying creatures of the air, brought them to Adam, in order to see what he would call them. For whatever Adam would call any living creature, that would be its name.

    5. How do you know your interpretation of the Earth itself is correct when the flat earth theory exists?

      Nor did I say that, dipshit. Focus.

      If god is all-powerful, why couldn’t he convey simple facts clearly through the bible he supposedly influenced? Why does it contradict itself and our reality at all?

      It isn’t

      Saying things doesn’t make them true. Even if you are correct (which you are not), you have done nothing to demonstrate that.

      He did

      Saying things doesn’t make them true. That’s all the bible is, by the way. People saying things.

      Genesis 2:19 Therefore, the Lord God, having formed from the soil all the animals of the earth and all the flying creatures of the air, brought them to Adam, in order to see what he would call them. For whatever Adam would call any living creature, that would be its name.

      You skipped the contradiction. Genesis 1 and 2 disagree about whether animals or humans were created first.

      Also, the idea that animals were created for us to eat and exploit is deeply fucked. STOP DEFENDING ABUSE.

      How do you know your interpretation of the Earth itself is correct when the flat earth theory exists?

      Evidence. Have you never ridden on an airplane or used a telescope? Are you seriously comparing your own beliefs to the flat earth theory? This is suicidal stupidity, and you’re taking us down with you. Do better.
