“That’s It, I’m Wedding Shaming”: 40 Times People Just Had To Shame These Weddings Online (New Posts)

Golly, I wonder if it's because Christians are the ones overturning our laws and shoving their religion into our democracy? If you don't like it, Christians, I hope this means you're at your own churches, pointing out exactly what Jesus would do... and doing it. And we better see you at pro-choice marches, for that matter. "We'll know they are Christians by their love," and right now, the only ones screaming that LGBTQ+ kids are going to hell and I'm a murderer are... hey, Christians! DO BETTER. It's so cute when you get all bent out of shape when we nonChristians treat you Christians exactly like how you treat us.

The people bashing others about anything, really are rude and those in society who claim to be Christian are a disgrace to Christianity. Our churches revolve around kindness. If a church were to teach AGAIST being kind to others, it’s going against the whole Bible

An eye for an eye just makes the whole world blind. It's not okay to hate. Full stop.

You mean it's not okay to disagree with others. That's what you mean by hate, right? But you're disagreeing with God do that makes you a hateful person, right?

💕Hi Jan, with full respect, please consider that there are some that don't fall into easy stereotypes. I am nonpartisan, I'm chill 😊 and I'm a professional, high functioning, non-hedonistic artist in SoCal and I eschew mainline pop pastors, preachers and megachurches! Please don't paint every Christian with the same mean-spirited brush. I am def not typical of most Christians and over the last several decades, I don't assume almost anything the MSM promos as valid regardless of left or right, liberal or conservative, as accurate and worthwhile. Politics is a puppet show. I don't always succeed but I try to abide by the Golden Rule.🕊️💕😊

The “MSM” isn’t the problem. Mrs. Jan is right. The people who are attacking everyone in the US right now are VERY LOUDLY doing it in the name of their version of conservative “Christianity”. (I use quotation marks because I see nothing from the bible or Christian teachings in what they do.) This isn’t some media spin, both-sides-blah-blah situation. Not to worry; the coming backlash is going to be epic.

There's only one version of Christianity, you either Follow Christ or you don't. I don't know what you mean by attacking. I'm not shouting or being aggressive with anyone but I am definitely not pro-death. Regardless, while the current laws do protect the most vulnerable among us, as God intended... These laws are in existence to serve our current government, the corporations. I have no idea how much rich people profit from each minimum wage worker but I know that if those workers aren't born, who's going to scrub their floors? Women are having less children. This does not serve the 1%. If stopping abortion doesn't fix that for them, they'll take away our birth control.

If I could up vote you more I would.

Agree, plus live & let live

They deserve to be painted with the broad brush so long as the rest of you "good ones" fail to rein in the demented ones. You want chrizzie bashing to end? Fix it. Fix the cancer in that faith group.

Re-read your post but replace Cristian with Muslim. Is it ok to say that about them?

Yes. Last I checked, having an opinion isn't illegal yet.

Crowbar, bit if a separation. You can't compare the two. In the US Muslims are a religious minority. They have little to no power politically or socially. The "christians" on the other hand hold all the power in American life. Therefore that is an apple to oranges comparison.

I’m a Christian and I go to pride parades and am fairly democratic. I’m also pan. I’m a new generation of Christian that’s loving and forgiving. I fight for my body and speak openly about it and how it’s my right. My youth group even went to a pro choice march in my home town. Yes the older generation is super judge mental and can be so rude and unforgiving. But I can guarantee the new generation is working on equality and life and choice and love. Because we are life and we want a choice and we want to love who we please.

Thats all well and good,but the moment you step away from God's Word, you stop displaying Christianity. Like it or not, God is very clear about the gay lifestyle. We are to love the sinner, however...as we are sinners ourselves. We can't judge someone else just beccause we sin different. But to think supporting the lbgtq+ agenda is Godly, you're incorrect

I don't know if "judge mental" was a typo, but, damn, it fits really well 😆

Slow clap!

Your faith needs more like you. Sadly, there are too many that just blindly do what their parents did, and what the church leaders tell them to do, without any pause to think critically.

@The Fabulous Killjoy - As a former Christian myself and quite familiar with the Bible (which is the reason I'm a former Christian haha), I'll be honest - you're living in way deemed sinful according to the bible. You don't get to change God's rules, and if you have arrived at a place where you've realized that the value system of your religion is so pervasively crappy and dehumanizing (eg, Exodus 20, where God lays out the rules for how to appropriately own slaves) that you can't in good conscience abide by the rules set by that book and god, then you should probably just leave the religion and search for a spiritual purpose within yourself. You'd just put yourself through emotional and cognitive dissonance trying to live a life that the Christian god deems sinful. It sounds like you have a better moral compass than the Bible, so I think you'd do fine.

Sounds to me like you don't understand what you read. Have you visited the new testament at all? I mean besides when society chooses to cherry pick what's good in it. Like the Golden rule, is that one still good? I guess I should be asking if everyone still agrees that's good, right? If you knew as much about God's word as you think you do, you'd know that everything God said has a purpose bigger than the individual. There's reasons for His laws and decrees. Science is slowly catching up but for the parts that have caught up... It's still a good idea to wash your hands before you eat? Pigs are still the dirtiest animals to eat? You have to cook them well or not eat them? If you think no, do some research on pigs.. It's pretty disgusting. Golden rule still a decent idea? We could be here all day.

So Christian means "Christ Follower". The Holy Bible is the word of God. God was here in the beginning, we weren't. God told us what it means to love others. That's not something that each generation gets to decide. A Christian upholding the word of God is not what it means to be judgemental. God defined things for us. We can follow God or not follow Him. There's no new generation of Christianity. Love means the same thing today as it did 2,000 years ago. So does everything else that God defined for us. A Christian supports God's agenda, not their own and not society's. Society's idea of values and morals is a moving target. Yesterday slavery was good and today it isn't, for example. But everyone agreeing on something doesn't make it right. At one time, most people agreed that the Earth was flat.. Were they right? I encourage you to get to know God's word and pray so you can understand why God said what He did.

I think it's cute that people who think they're enlightened.. Aren't. You feel like it's okay to treat Christians differently because you don't agree with us. Yet, that seems to be your exact complaint against us.... That we treat others differently because we don't agree with them.

You reap what you sow

Exactly. Typical persecution complex. Sorry. Try again. It's called punching up. Like it or not, those that have power, in this case the "christians", are not being harmed by less powerful groups punching up. Besides, if your getting butt hurt over what others perceive your faith to be based on the bad actors, you need to loudly, vocally, and publicly condemn those bad actors, as well as start a public outreach arm of your faith group that makes it well known what you actually stand for. Also you need to be the change you want to see. If you don't like people calling chrizzies out on their hypocrisy and b******t, do something positive about it instead of crying like a spoiled whore without KY on the internets ffs.

LMAO Okay, so God has the power and you're arguing with middle management and the peons in the company ( God is the boss in this scenario) hoping to do what? I don't think you're harming me by not understanding me. I do think that people harm themselves and others when their values have no basis and no roots. As for the bad actors, God said there's a special place in hell for those people. God also said "Vengeance is mine." Since I know this to be true, I'm confident that God has that handled. Regardless, I'm pretty outspoken. I confront false Christians regularly. These people going on and on about how Trump is going to save the babies but ignore the fact that God sees lies to be as bad as an abortion. Trump has told thousands of lies which is the same as thousands of abortions... For one man, that many sins. And that's just the lies. He's such an awful human being and people calling themselves Christians think it's cool to overlook all of that poison in favor of preventing abortions.

Cont.. During the elections, I was really loud. Yet, I'm not understanding why you think it's my responsibility to...??? When I see something, I say something... Publicly and privately. Truth is truth. I think you expect more from me though. I already have something that makes it well known what I stand for, it's called the Holy Bible. What makes you think I could produce something better? What makes you think if I did start a campaign, people wouldn't try to corrupt that? Because we both know they would. I can't improve on what God said. I do walk my talk. But I'm not responsible for someone else's bad actions any more than you are. So much to unpack in your last sentence. Spoiled whore? You think whores are spoiled?! They're often sex slaves that were trafficked as children. Like the farthest away from spoiled that you can imagine. Are you a pimp? Because if a whore is forced to do those things, and she is, why is it not cool for her to cry over being raped repeatedly without KY?

👍

It's like you didn't read your first sentence/question. We're all in this together. Everyone has a right to vote their own heart, even people that you hate. People that don't agree with YOU also don't like you shoving your religion (I don't know what you call it when your values are a moving target.. What religion is that?) Onto them. I'm guessing I know what Jesus would do and it's not what you think because you don't understand what it means to love other people. You won't find me at a pro-death march. Jesus values the babies you want to kill as much as the mothers and other people like yourself that want to kill them. Loving someone doesn't mean agreeing with everything they say and do. Nor does it mean throwing them a parade simply because they don't know any better. It's unkind to scream at others about going to hell. Christians find it unloving and unkind to allow people to march right into hell without any warning at all. It's like people like you think it's our decision.

Shoving our religion? Judeo Christian values helped shape this country. "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

I think the frustration, in the US anyway, comes from observing the rising popularity of intermingling politics and religion within the Republican party, which seems to be going largely unchallenged by the Christian community, 82% of which lean Republican according to Pew research, when the founding fathers explicitly decided that all citizens should have the right to freely exercise their religion and therefore did not include any references to Christianity in the constitution. Add to that the relatively inhumane decisions and platforms of the republican party toward the poor, toward immigrants, and toward other religions, and many people are feeling alarmed and confused by the messaging. That's not to say it's ever alright to paint an entire religion and the people who practice it with one brush - these are just some of the reasons for the negative sentiments.

RedMarbles, thank you for speaking with reason and balance. I agree. When I was a kid, I honestly believed the Republican party had the moral high ground. I honestly couldn't tell you where I got that idea, as the tradition/denomination I grew up in was strictly apolitical. Maybe I picked up that idea from listening to people from other backgrounds? In any case, it was a serious revelation when, in college, I started to realize nothing could be further from the truth.

Education and critical thinking are wonderful tools to fight ignorance. What'll really bake your noodle is when you see how long conservatives have fought to undermine public education, because the uneducated can be manipulated easier.

I agree. I think I'm probably considered pretty conservative on several issues but education is really important. Understanding why God said the things He said are critical to understanding the point. It also really frustrates me when non-, Christians think they know anything about the Bible without any education or critical thinking regarding Christianity. It's so common for people to think they know everything about a subject because they heard a rumor.

I'm a Christian but I'm not Republican. Not because I'm pro-death but because the Republican party doesn't hold to any Christian values. That's the greedy, corporate political party. I can't be democrat either though because while most of those values align with Christ's, not all of them do. But I think that the values that democrats are missing... They mean well. It comes from a place of compassion, while being ignorant of so many things. But this overturning of Roe v. Wade? While it does protect the most vulnerable among us, I don't think that's the reason they overturned it. Rich make their money by exploiting the poor. But so many of the 99% are having less children. How to fix that? If failing to prosecute rape and removing abortion don't fix it, our birth control is next. I find it astounding how many people are so focused on religion and missing the point completely.

Exactly. I can't help but troll some of these "holier than thou" types. But those that are a part of a powerful group that fails to put the brakes on its worst actions, in part deserves some of the lumps they get. Especially when that group holds all the power, and perverts and corrupts everything to keep power. If you associate with that group, don't complain when people that group hurts lash out. Instead, it would be better to either form a new faith group of reasonable people like yourselves, or work to cut out the cancer that has given your group a bad image.

Here's an analogy for you: a sports team has the best coach of all time. Many people want to be associated with said team for various reasons. Many people buy uniforms and claim to be on the team. Then they go out and commit horrible acts and the general public is holding the sports team accountable for their acts. Rumors spread, public thinks they know everything about the team based upon the false members. False members raise their children to believe they're actually on the sports team. I think you and I may disagree on many issues. I also think that if you laid down your biases based upon false information, that you'd understand where I'm coming from and that we're not all that different.

Western culture in general owes a lot to Judeo-Christian culture (among many other cultures), but that does *not* mean it is or should be a theocracy. We have a responsibility to *all* Americans, and it was *never* meant to be "a Christian nation". (edit: This was in reply to Lola. I'm not arguing for hatred towards Christians, and I actually mostly agree with Jack Brown's point above. I just can't abide Christians forcing their values on others. There's a happy medium in all this.)

Treaty of Tripoli buddy. And fun fact, Christianity isn't the only religion with a Creator. That's... Oh yeah. Most religions. Christianity is just a blend of Judaism, Paganism and Zoroastrianism in a trenchcoat that bullies other religions with a rabid fan base.

Lola - they did not specify who they considered to be the Creator. They did explicitly specify that they were NOT founding a Christian nation. And yes, shoving your religion is exactly what conservative “Christians” have been doing.

Define creator. That was left ambiguous in purpose. Read a history book. The US was founded as a secular nation first and foremost, that favors NO singular religion, and allows it's citizens the freedom to choose what faith, if any, they wish to practice.

Will put, Jack. Thank you.

Really! I have found throughout life, & I am past retirement age, that those who profess to be Christians are the first ones to stab you in the back & hurt you before so called non-Christians.

They don't only accept it; they cheer it on. It's disgraceful to discriminate against a whole religion.

I am sorry you met so many Christians who don't act like it, but I can assure you that there are many Christians who are extremely nice and considerate. Have a nice day and stay safe👍

The "nice and considerate" ones still vote with the assholes, so no, sorry, we aren't buying it anymore.

Unfortunately, in my experience, this is at least somewhat true. People I would otherwise respect voted for Trump. I really hope at least my parents didn't (but they don't talk about politics openly). I blame single issue voting, and I think we all know what issue I'm referring to. To my shame, it took me a long time to come around on that particular issue as well, because I failed to see the bigger picture and could only see it as a preventable loss of human life. Here's the thing though, I know Republicans are lying, to their constituents and to themselves, because if they really believed in the sanctity of human life, they'd work to make it better. They talk about pro-life, but really they're just pro-birth and have 0 care or empathy about what happens to people after they're born.

Both Democrats & Republicans lie to their constituents, in order to hold on to their power & not lose their access to money.

Thank you, Lola. As a Christian, I can’t be perfect, no one can. And if people want to see us as HAVING TO BE SO I have offended people and have been mean once or twice, but if I was the mother, I would NEVER do that. Our religion don’t claim this cråp

We’re not talking imperfection, Lola. We’re talking gleeful embrace of the exact opposite of what are supposed to be Christian values, and we’re talking about real harm to real people in the very real world. You seem a lot more upset by some suggesting you’re not perfect than you are by the harm that your fellow “Christians” are doing to others right now. All talk, no compassion.

Delta Dawn, I'm sure you know as well as I do that there is no hate quite like Christian "love." Christianity has destroyed our country.

I’m not that type of “Christian”. If I could make it so that the hateful ones stopped hating, I would. But you can’t say all of us are hateful. We’re not. Some, yes, but not all.

Nope. Do better. Because the same ones insisting they're the "nice/good" ones are the same ones screaming at women for their reproductive choices, and kicking out their queer kids, all in the name of Christianity and Jesus. As your own little song goes, "They Will Know [You] Are Christians By [Your] Love." This is the results of your own behavior. Don't like it? Then do more to change it. You can say you're "one of the good ones" all you want, but we don't believe you anymore. You screwed up too much.

You are saying that since I’m a Christian, I am hateful. if you said that about any other religious group, it would be considered inappropriate and offensive. The “Christians” kicking out others because they’re different are the real sinners. You can’t generalize us and say I’m hateful just because I believe in Jesus.

You're right. Buddhists wouldn't scream. (See Vietnam protests)

Because it turns out, it's not Buddhists screaming about vaccines being government brainwashing, or trans kids ruining the schools. It's Christians. It's ALWAYS Christians. It's baked into your religion. 85% of American Christians of all races and economic backgrounds STILL support Trump. You Christians have a lot to fix about your religion and reputation. You're not persecuted because you're right and so good. You're persecuted because you're nosy assholes who won't leave the rest of us alone. Christians are some of the most stupid and selfish people in America right now, and if you don't like it, go chat about how to fix it with your fellow Christians. You know, maybe act like Jesus would once and a while.
