It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Love it when a tradcath cryptofascist gets to dialogue with a tradcath fascist about Wookiepedia-level religious trivia
I'd link but I think it's deleted
God the Jesus fandom is so utterly up it's own ass. What is this even about, Vatican 2 broke their spellcasting system so now they can't eat Jesus?
Good person: idk I just try to be nice to people and do onto others 
Ex-Manhattan socialite who broke her brain doing too much coke: SO WE HAVE TO EAT JESUS 
Yeah it's like Catholic ultraleftism: I'm the only smart one, everyone else is a dummy, so that's why Jesus closed the door for all of us to press the Eucharist button.
Catholicism 5th edition has been very controversial for being too simple and accessible to wide audiences, elitist players want to go back to 3.5
So glad I got the autism that makes me good at maths and map games instead of the catholicism lore autism
I think I got both but at least I'm not a tradcath.
tfw you realize religious trivia is all neurodivergent folks could obsess and argue over until very very recently and that the council of Nicaea was essentially a posting war
This is peak theory tbh, just imagining Nicea as being the first tradcath struggle session
I honestly have more respect for people who get deep into warhammer lore than this weird catholic nerd shit
god be like: my son/daughter, you have not followed the letter of the law and thus will sit in hell for one million years. fucking nerds stg
It's even worse, they're saying that even if you were to follow the letter of the law, you're doomed to hell anyway because all the sacraments are invalid since the Church itself went too far by letting women do the readings in Mass or whatever.
Literal 16th century theology hours who up
Many Roman Catholics (not even "sedes" or "trads") receive communion in Byzantine parishes for this reason
They do not.
it's amazing that people have made up such convoluted complexity applied to nothing. Like, it's all entirely made up. It's nonsense built atop a foundation of nonsense.
"So anyway, it's best to pick Charmander as your starter because..."
"...and that's how Ash picking Pikachu started the second Pokecclesiastes Schism."
Papists and incoherent popery, name a better duo
Religion is so fuckinv stupid idk how anyone can take even the smallest bit of this shit seriously. I literally cannot fathom a person being a Christian with the knowledge that there's like 57 different fucking flavors of christianity. How the fuck do you know you got the real one? You don't, dummy. Sorry the real true church of god is some splinter from some catholic heresy that only exists in the mountains of Ethiopia or some shit
And then you've got stuff like the split between Jews and Samaritans (ignoring all the differences between Jews of varying orthodoxy) with the Samaritans believing they follow the REAL Torah
Every theological debate i've ever seen or witnessed just comes off as people masturbating over fan fiction
the real true church of god is some splinter from some catholic heresy that only exists in the mountains of Ethiopia
The ethiopian christians claim to be holding the real ark of covenant
I literally cannot fathom a person being a Christian with the knowledge that there's like 57 different fucking flavors of christianity.
I mean, to be fair, we are communists ourselves…
Wait till they find out about the theology of Pelagius the Wise. Its not a story the Catholics would tell you...
The myths of Sheogorath are all true, even the lies. Especially the lies.
Adam Friedland really dodged a bullet huh
dodged a bullet like the diarrhea dodged being trapped in his white linen pants
Isn’t the whole point of being Catholic that it’s not your job or right to debate this stuff? Stop being Protestant! Go to mass! Listen to what you’re told!
The tradcaths keep accidentally inventing Protestantism because they think the papacy is too woke and soy
It's never not gonna be funny to me. I wish them a very happy Another 30 Years War on each other. Start by throwing themselves out a window.
That’s the whole point of christianity in general. Essentially, the bible is the done deal. Priests exist to guide people towards the book. But you’re supposed to have faith that it’s all real and makes sense even if you don’t understand it. Questioning the validity of x miracle or y sacrament is essentially the equivalent of lucifer demanding equality with God or Eve wanting all knowledge
somehow less interesting and less spiritually relevant to life than a debate between two dorks about Warhammer 40k deep lore.
The lady from season 3 of Succession wants us all to know we killed God with heresy?
The worst thing is that they are talking a lot of heretical ultraconservative nonsense. Lay people have no say in what is or is not an effective sacrament. I hope all these "trads" admit once and for all that they are actually Protestants. Besides, if they are such traditionalists, the Apostle Paul writes that women have no voice in these matters: they can't even be conservative right.
My decision to never listen to a single second of Red Scare validated once again
It’s like those middle schoolers who roleplay as vampires in the middle of class
Me in 5th grade talking about Warhammer lore with my friends at recess
What I see when Marxists talk about Hegel
the western left is strong
Dasha is a right-wing freak these days, turns out those brain worms are contagious
The riverbeds will run red with the blood of the saints and the holy.
They should get into cool special interests like X-Men, Final Fantasy, Survivor, Digimon, Pro Wrestling
