It's not a CIA op or something. It's just anti-semitism.
Vatican II included a stance of not blaming jews everywhere for the death of christ and opened itself up to the ideas of other religions and science.
This ended up leading to an apology for the persecution of astronomers such as Galileo and Copernicus years later
They use the flat earth thing as a dog whistle for wanting the Catholic Church to go back to its old ways.
That's all it is. It's just trad cath fascists jerking themselves off and some dumb guys following along not realizing what they're doing.
I never understood the whole “hating Jews because they killed Jesus” thing. Like, would Christianity even be the same if Jesus had lived for 40 more years and died peacefully in his sleep?
It wouldn't exist, also Jesus was killed by his dad... It literally says so in the bible. He was allowed to die by God to absolve the world of sin. So God killed him, not the Jews... Which still, he was killed by the Romans?
Yeah... But it wouldn't make sense to hate the Romans when you're marketing your religion to them.
I thought modern flat earthery originated with Protestant-style Americans
The Principle was the movie that sent it into the mainstream and the guys behind it are trad cath fascists

I'm too drunk to understand this right now but also I believe it 100%
two hexbears drunkposting at the same time? what are the odds?
Had to go dirty delete a bunch of angry Reddit comments I made during it, gonna keep this one up as a monument to how unhinged I'm getting I guess
right on comrade. just remember you don't owe the fuckers a thing, least of all civility.
Oh yeah I just get email notifications from it and I hate seeing the responses
I should probably also go check to make sure I didn't also leave any unhinged comments. I don't feel so good. Remember kids, liquor is not your friend.
Laughing at flat earthers is fun but remember something like 40% of US Americans believe the universe is less than 10,000 years old. Sure, you can go outside and see that the earth isn't flat, but you can also look up at the night sky and the fact you can see most stars is because the universe is much older.
Young Earth Creationism is just as silly to me as Flat Eartherism, and a lot more people actually believe it.
I'm not laughing at it, it's Nazism in disguise. It's dangerous
The “Nazi Lies” podcast looks at lots of “harmless” conspiracy theories that in fact are just Nazi dogwhistles
Going to check that out actually, sounds exactly my speed
He sings the theme song horribly off key. It’s kind of endearing.
I feel like the youtube video In Search Of A Flat Earth goes into your subject really well. I dont know if you have seen it but check it out if you have not.
Lol yeah this rules said it a million times better than me
the church shouldn't have apologized to galileo and copernicus. but otherwise you're right.
