Whether they crave internet points or run out of arguments in a heated discussion, some people BS way too much. But the overwhelming amount of lies shouldn't discourage us from calling them out. On the contrary. Think of it as herd immunity: the population is protected from a disease (a fake narrative) after vaccination (a response) by stopping the germ responsible for the infection being transmitted between people (destroying that absurd fantasy with facts).
There's even a whole subreddit dedicated to this noble quest, /r/quityourbullshit. With over 1.3M members, it accumulated a large collection of screenshots and images of people calling out BS, delivering burns so big, they might just set your screen on fire.

PIcking and chosing which parts of "holy" books fit their agenda is a common trait between all religious fanatics, regardless of their religion.
actually it's mostly just people taking the different religious covenants out of context and pretending they know about a religion they don't understand. but go ahead, downvote away
Load More Replies...I don't remember anything about piercing your ears in the Bible, but you're not supposed to wear mixed fabrics or eat a variety of things like pork or shellfish and the Christians sure as f**k aren't following those rules.
Piercing your ears is the same as "marking or defiling your body" which is supposed to be a "temple"
Load More Replies...The Bible is made of The Old Testament, which includes the very strict laws for the Jews and the New Testament which includes the commandments for Christians and Messianic Jews.
Says who? Jesus himself said "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them." The idea that there were new laws is just made up by Christians that realise how insane the laws of their god really are.
Load More Replies...the people accusing christians of "picking and choosing" from scripture are the same ones who don't understand the historical context of the bible. both people in this picture are wrong. it comes down to the different sacred covenants and comandments of the time, and Jewish law vs the Gospel. this post doesn't really belong here cause both people are wrong.
I mean... the Bible says a bunch of different things and yet everyone says it's all from the same god. Basically the Bible is just a bunch of really inconsistent rules and stories smacked together even though the Jews clearly changed their rules a few times.
Load More Replies...I just love the short and sweet KO; Wham, Bam, to the ground goodnight!
There are some things in the Bible that are outdated. They were there because of inequalities and health issues that are either not tolerated or a problem any more, some examples are the tattoos, piercings, and divorce. There are rules that may have worked well for one time period, but not another. That's what humans do; evolve, tolerate, and try to better themselves. At least, that's what GOOD humans do.
The Rock's tattoos are part of his cultural identity. Judge not lest ye be judged. Matthew 7:1.
My family and I are Christians and my mom has 2 tattoos, my cousins have tattoos, and several people in our family has their ears pierced.
Im pretty sure those were the laws just in those days for certain people. I believe it says elsewhere that those laws don't apply anymore (man, Leviticus is confusing! I haven't even read much of it but I have the gist of it from what people have said and I don't really want to read it lol. I guess don't read it before you have a ton of biblical knowledge or at least a commentary, I guess? Idk). I'm a Christian and I have ear piercings (I would like more than I have but my school doesn't allow more for some reason-- I have two lobe piercings in each ear and a cartilage one in my right), and I know Christians with tattoos. I also have boyishly short hair, and I know Christian girls with hair shorter than mine. I wear makeup occasionally (but not very often just because I hate the feel of it on my face).
If anyone has questions, please ask! I might not have worded things correctly bc it's midnight and I'm pretty tired lol but if I don't know the answer to something I'll ask someone who knows (probably my dad tbh). Or if you're also a Christian and I got something wrong then please tell me (but back up what you say with Bible verses so I know you're legit and maybe if you misinterpreted something I can help you out, or at least I'll ask someone to help me help you out)!
Load More Replies...It's ... inconsistent, but for the most part Jewish tradition says you can, but Jesus is really hardline no-divorce. http://skepticsannotatedbible.com/contra/divorce.html
Load More Replies...Where in the bible does it say to not pierce your ears? Piercings are quite common among women in the bible, including Rebbecca. And where in the Bible is it against Divorce? Leviticus expressly talks about a document of divorce needed to end a marriage, and divorce exists in the bible. The Catholic Church in the 4th century ended divorce, but all other Christian groups did not accept it. Someone doesnt know their bible. The caption is wrong and that other poster never "got her" as what he wrote is 100% wrong. He needs to learn his bible
nope, actually you don't know your bible. different covenants, different context. and yes, in the new testament it does teach divorce is wrong.

This is just a collection of stupidities, and there are many of them indeed. However, please, remember social media and the world is much bigger than this. (This is supposed to be an optimistic comment, btw. But take it as you will ♥)
Daria B- I enjoyed your comment and knew that you meant it to be optimistic. Please ignore the bitter troll who thought to act as your English professor. The lack of understanding lies not in your comment but in her lack of comprehension and empathy.

And to punish those who spread lies with no further attention. Imagine everyone doing it... Populists and their media appearances would disappear in no time.
Wait! I went through the entire set of 40 - no bananas like in the lead-in photo on the main page of BoredPanda. Or did I just miss a hidden call-BS moment?

Load More Replies...Having to lie on social media already shows that some of these people have some serious issues and then the extent some go to to lie is a problem in and of itself. If you are anti vaxxer that is your choice, but please stop using debunked information to justify your stance. Claiming certain political views is fine, but know what you are talking about before you start ranting. My point is no matter how you believe there is a right and a wrong way to express your opinion.
Yes, Buster, (from Arthur) people *do* sometimes just go on the Internet and tell lies.
With all the "article 13" and stuff comming up, can someone implement a "fact checker filter" that sorts out such b******t before it goes online? Nah, just kidding. I don't want ony of that. Freedom of speech and stuff... at least it may deliver a good laugh with such dumb posts.
It should not be freedom of speech if it knowingly causes harm to the general public. Try yelling "fire" in a movie theater.
