Why do Atheists always ask what denomination you are if you say you're a Christian?
>>84459463don't even bother interacting with atheists
>>84459463Why do Christians get mad at this question ?
because we know putting you in a box makes you angry
>>84459463So we can find out if you're a findom paypig (Protestant), impoverished brown-skinned person (Catholic) or East European government shill (Orthodox).
>>84459471all abrahamics are cringe tho
They think they are smarter than you
>>84459472You would never ask a Muslim or Jew what sect they are
>>84459463Because they're all different to varying degrees?
>>84459623Jews officially have no "sects" and Muslims practically telegraph it. If he's wearing a suicide vest, it's a Salafi; if he's schizoposting, it's a Sufi; if he's running his country to the ground while funneling 40% of the budget to foreign militias, it's a Shia.
>>84459679>Jews officially have no "sects"yeah they do orthadox reform conservative
>>84459695These are more like slightly different flavors of Catholicism like "tradcath", they all say they're fundamentally the same shit, there's no schism and they're not "denominations" within Judaism. Especially Reform and Conservative in practice, even if on paper they have divergences. Orthodoxfags are more like annoying tryhard kids, but it's largely because they use it to run the Israeli rabbinate and autistically focus on minute shit to wave their mutilated dicks around in politics.
>>84459679if he's a muslim drinking rakija, he's a b*snian
>>84459463>Why do Atheists always ask what denomination you are if you say you're a Christian?To measure your IQ better.
>>84459756Lutheranism was literally a reform of Catholicism retard
>>84459891Where's the Lutheran pope?
>I'm non-denominationalI read the bible for myself and make up my own conclusions.
>>84459463Because I'm filtering the catholics out
>>84459556>all abrahamics are cringe thoThisThe real truth is in esoterica
>>84459463So they can custom-tailor how they doff their fedora OP
>>84459623Yes. Muslims get asked this question routinely, they also fought wars over this schism. What is this obsession with being oppressed? You can ask jews about it, I have. Most people aren't interested in knowing about it though, because they see judaism as too niche and specific to have different currents. But they do. I bet you don't even know that the Israeli rabbinate doesn't even recognize reform as a legitimate form of judaism.
>>84459471The President of the American Atheists, when it was The Official Religion of Reddit, was just a jew.>the fact they never ever ever demanded a single menorah be torn down or muslim prayer room removed from western schools is just a coincidence, you stupid goy
>>84459463saying youre "christian" without specifying the denomination is like saying youre "european" without specifying the country. it paints a very vague picture
it's just to gauge how retarded you actually areimagine being a mormon
>>84459463I guarantee you no atheist asks this since they lump all Christians together.Catholics are the ones obsessed with denominations/sects and are always bitching about muh non-Catholics, never mind the fact they're all the same.
>>84459988Mormons are actually some of the most intelligent religionigs though. Like yes, their beliefs are among the most painfully retarded ones possible, but they value education and tend to be surprisingly cultured and eloquent compared to the average Christian dunce.
>>84459463are you not skeptical of retarded protestant "christians" in this country? are you not catholic?
>>84459679What about Sunnis?
They are Christians if they ask that. Atheists don't understand nuance and think Christianity is a monolith.When people ask what church you go to it's easiest to just answer with denomination because the established assumption is they think you are a Christian. Unless it's a schizo flavor, then it's best to simply shut them down from further questioning. Most Christians I've encountered in real life are only slightly better than atheist tier when it comes to literacy. If it's a small town environment it would probably be dangerous to answer honestly. Always remember the only reason people talk to each other in real life is to hurt them through intel gathering. If they push for an answer say whatever is the dominant denomination in the area but you haven't found a local congregation you want to join yet. These types of questions are never good hearted or simple curiosity, so be on high alert. Even stuff as benign as what's your favorite food is a trap, intel gathering to later hurt you. If someone actually wants to be friends they'd be willing and able to talk about things without trying to build a dossier. Favorite anything is a keyword I use because it's useless in friendship but helpful in narrowing down a profile. If they just wanted to play games or something they'd talk about that or enter with a safe remark about how weathery the ambient outside conditions are.
>>84460138That's the Salafi/Sufi split, they're basically either terrorists or have schizophenia with florid psychosis.
>>84459463The simple implication is that since you can't decide what Christianity even is, you're probably not that reliable.
>>84459472because they are christians because it is a popular religion that requires no thought to divide and conquer it really makes them mad
>>84459471Jews run the media and Muslims rape little girls. You happy now Christcuck?
Prots are golems. They just want to know if they're dealing with a human or Talmudic slaves.
>>84460267My take is that the Ancient Sumerians are right, simply because they were the first to write it down, and therefore have already homesteaded the afterlife. Enjoy eating clay for all eternity after dying.
>>84460299I will say that the Sumerian viewpoint that nothing pretty awaits us in the afterlife is interesting. They didn't view death as something to look forward to. They saw it as miserable and scary, and a reason why you should appreciate your time being alive.
desu you lil niggas can't figure out which of your book clubs is the rightest book club. that's why.
>>84460267Christianity is the world's most popular religion, and has been for a majority of the last 2000 yearsWhy?
>>84460535>Why?Propaganda and colonialism
>>84460535So what? One of them would eventually become the most popular. In a parallel universe, Islam is the most popular religion, and you would be using that as your "proof" that Islam is the correct one. Also, that pie chart you showed is only about religion in the US, and yeah, no shit Christianity is the most popular one here. If you pair them all up with the rest of the world, Islam isn't actually that far behind Christianity.
I'm an atheist now but reconvert to Orthodox Christianity (as I was raised) whenever I meet a retarded Evangelical
>>84459463They oppose evangelicals but are more lenient towards anglicans and novus ordo catholics.
