The only thing Christians like more than little boys, is their persecution complex.
Christian visibility day?
Like all the big churches that are publicly visible with their marquees displaying whatever religious mumbojumbo?
Christmas? Easter? Good Friday? Whatever other Christian holidays? The want another day on top of all that?
don’t forget lent and advent. those end up making 1/6 of all days into christian days
Christian here. I can confirm we’re already pretty fucking visible.
Wait – who said that?
It was probably just the wind… or a ghost. The holy spooky ghost.
Oh hi, didn’t see you there
Christianity approaches, “Nice holiday you got there… What if it was about Jesus instead?”

In 2016 my mother put it to me as a positive that he was ok with same-sex marriage.
The conductor is at work and he leads them masterfully. He’s kinda the perfect version of what they need from a demagogue.
christian visibility day is any day that ends with “y”.
there is no place in this country where a christian is not only not persecuted for their beliefs but is publicly lionized for them if they profess them.
majorities that need to be publicly recognized is a absolute ploy to silence and opress minorities, the more marginalized the worse it is.
Sun day, Moon day, Tiu’s Day, Odin’s Day, Thor’s Day, Freija’s Day, Saturn’s Day.
We obviously need to add a Christ’s Day, ellided to Cryday.
I mean, they already have Easter, and then basically the whole month of December. It’s not anyone else’s fault that it got turned into a consumerism and capitalist mega payday.
Easter isn’t even about Jesus. At least Christmas has the name, and some manger imagery, and other Christian-based stuff they can stamp on top of Saturnalia, but Easter is still named after the goddess of fertility with all the accompanying fertility and spring parts, from eggs to rabbits, to little sprouting plants and whatnot.
And I get that the Christians try to associate that spring renewal and rebirth with the resurrection, but I think that’s a pretty big stretch to try to make it work.
Easter is not about Jesus. Every time somebody says “keep Christ in Christmas” I want to say “then get him out of Easter.”
“Easter is the day Jesus rose”
…then it should be a set date. It is not.
Dude I remember that day Jesus rose from the dead. Crazy day. It was… was it Wednesday? I’m not sure. No wait it was definitely Sunday. The first Sunday after the first full moon after the spring equinox. Yeah that’s when it was. Who could forget that?
Good Friday also gets a government holiday in 12 states as well, that should get an honorary mention. In public school ash Wednesday used to be a thing… But not sure if they finally did away with it
Won’t someone think of the oppressed white, male, middle class, Christians?!
Can we get a Trump Invisibility Day instead?
Or a year for that matter…
We’re going to need a Freedom From Fuckwad day when he finally dies.
If Christians want to be more visible, they could attract a lot more attention by dancing around with poisonous snakes.
Hey Christians! Prove to us that you really are protected by your magical deity and increase your “visibility” at the same time!
Sounds like something a snowflake would do.
I hate that being reactionary works so well.
It feels like I’m taking crazy pills.
Look up a sociologist named Alvin Toffler. Back around 1970, he and his wife wrote two books, “The Third Wave” and “Future Shock.”
The idea of The Third Wave was that the world was going to rapidly shift from an Industrial model to a Digital one and that change would be as profound as the shift from hunter/gatherer to farming. The concept of Future Shock was that there would be a lot of people who couldn’t or wouldn’t be able to adapt to the new reality.
This is a really good example of what they were talking about.
Do you mean the reactionary behavior, or the inability to understand it? I feel like it could go either way, but one is more depressing than the other.
Both. Going back to an idealized past is preferable to dealing with an unpleasant present.
He’s never going away, is he?
His mind certainly is. The blobby rest will soon follow as well. He’s overweight, eats fast food and drinks coke all day and thinks exercise is bad because it depletes the body’s battery. It’s a wonder he hasn’t croaked already but time is certainly against him now. In comparison, Biden takes much better care of himself (but time is certainly not on his side as well).
