Yeah, it was a little late to be pulling it up.

If a slave has taken refuge with you, do not hand them over to their master. Let them live among you wherever they like and in whatever town they choose. Do not oppress them.

“Yea, I'm burning witches & engaging in an inquisition right now!”

A wee bit fragile and defensive, since nobody has accused you of that.

But if my wife considers herself a bruja and casts a magic spell on me from time to time, why is that a problem?

It’s her culture.

Her culture was considered as illegal by the colonial state, which was unable to exterminate her palenque.

My wife’s entire culture is about welcoming the stranger, welcoming refugees and immigrants, which caused many conflicts with the colonial government and the Spanish Empire from the time when her ancestors, as cimarrones, ran away from their masters to found a free Black palenque culture.

People here on BlueSky still demonize my wife and her ancestors for running away from their masters and creating a free Black Catholic palenque culture and for fighting multiple religious wars against their former masters.

There’s nothing hypothetical about it.

It happens every day here.

Pythagoras @pythagoras2024.bsky.social · 8h

They did.

This thread is from a typical white supremacist so-called “leftist”

This guy thinks Christianity is a kind and loving religion that doesn’t support slavery or killing women who like sex.

Thats because he’s either never read the book or he was lobotomized shortly after.

The Bible is the most bigoted hateful and war mongering texts sold in stores today.

Pythagoras @pythagoras2024.bsky.social · 7d

Those who think this is Christian are Confederate Losers.

That's rich coming from an organisation created to oppress people with blatant censorship. Not to mention the paedophiles that make up said organisation.

All religion is cancer.

Talk about Toxic Masculinity!

This dude demands that men control their wives’ thoughts, religions, cultures and their very identities.

There’s lots of stuff like that here.

Do you really need examples?

Pythagoras @pythagoras2024.bsky.social · 13h

I don’t think that anybody here knows.

At least not so far.

Maybe somebody has actual information about who he voted for further down in this thread.

If the new white atheists hadn’t spent their time promoting Islamophobia, hounding gay Christians from forums, promoting the literalist theology of their former fundamentalist churches, bashing Black cultures, and attacking their non-fundamentalist atheist brethren, they might have done some good.
