          God will judge them

          Matthew 7:21-23

          [21] “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. [22] On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ [23] And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’

              The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, they do abominable deeds; there is none who does good.

                Fuck you and fuck this take. Theists don’t have a monopoly on the capacity to be charitable and a positive influence.

                  But we do on rational charitability. You know what’s right and what’s wrong. You can believe in good and evil without believing in the same God who put it there. Just how someone can also believe the summer is especially warm without believing in man-made climate change.

                  If only truth was so easy to dismiss so we can follow our own selfish desires…

                    truth

                    If your definition of truth includes religious texts in any capacity other than, perhaps, a very dated take on philosophy, then that’s a point we are simply not going to agree on.
