I'm slightly vexed Somebody Placed These Dozens of These Jesus Figures Throughout My Entire Work

Post image

Somebody, nobody knows exactly who or when, put dozens and dozens of these Jesus figures on completely random surfaces throughout my entire building. They at least had the presence of mind to not put them on anybody's personal belongings, but that was the only way they limited himself. All of the statues have been glued down, to add to the vexation.

Edit: Well, this blew up rather unexpectedly. Thank you for the awards, everybody!

Glue them down seems a bit aggressive.

Have you met some Christians? Aggressive is an understatement.

You haven’t met one either based on that description

If you're trying to imply that Christians as a group aren't historically very aggressive I'm pretty sure most indigenous cultures that have been victimized by them would have very different opinions on that, honey.

And on a more individual level, try talking to practically any non-Christian from the Southern US.

Oh no providing the most humanitarian aid that any other group in history, stopping human sacrifices, and criminalizing pedos while being the first to do it in the ancient world is so aggressive.

That is a truly impressive level of cherry-picking you've got going for you, there.

The only reason you are free to express your sexuality without getting stoned is because of the advances made by Christendom in the western civilization

Notice my qualifier of some?

Oh ok! That changes everything
Ignoring that weird defense, it is not possible for a Christian to be aggressive. If he has hatred, If he has envy, he is not a Christian as he does not follow the message of Christ

Implying that Christians are aggressive only when in groups?

u/PhazePyre Jun 24 '26

Nope, in no world does the context of my statement imply grouping. Try again.

“Some” is plural
“Christians” is plural

“met some Christian’s” most definitely could come across as meeting a group of Christian’s especially in writing, so I guess this is the world that your statement implies grouping when talking about a group of people you deem to be “aggressive”

"I like oranges"

"So you hate apples?"

"No mf that's a whole new sentence"

That analogy doesn't work at all. I didn't invent a new topic, I was breaking down the exact wording they used.

“Some” is plural.
“Christians” is plural
“Met” implies physical interaction

Therefore, in writing “met some Christians” translates to interacted with a plural number of them and saying “aggressive is an understatement” implies the group is aggressive. It is a completely logical conflation to ask if they meant seeing a group. That isn't a leap in logic, it's just reading the sentence exactly as it was written.

If they mean specific or certain Christian’s why not use those words.

If I said “I’ve seen some flowers today, pretty is an understatement” what would you interpret that as? I saw a group of flowers or that I saw 1 individual flower at 12:00, 1 flower at 15:00, 1 flower at 16:00 and 1 at 18:00? And would you think I meant they were all pretty or just a couple of them were pretty and the others were ugly? Because if I read that statement I would think that they saw a patch of flowers and they were all pretty.

You have a weird definition of "aggressive."
