      Ahh, I see you meant the global south, which india isn’t really part of, since it is north of the Equator.

      Also you are ignoring the persecution of other religions.

      If Christianity is actually persecuted, then they brought it on themselves. Shouldn’t have forced indigenous peoples to abandon their religions, and forced them to become Christians. Y’all should have been better neighbors, not bothering other people with your bullshit constantly. If you acted like any other religion, you wouldn’t have the backlash.

        “it didnt happen but if it did you probably deserved it”

        and no man shall be punished for the crimes of his father

          and no man shall be punished for the crimes of his father

          Then why do you keep citing original sin as justification for punishment that can only be offset by sacrificial offerings?

              Except we are all punished for what our ancestors did?

              How do you not see the contradiction here?

              And what about the baby who was killed for David’s sin? And his wives raped?

                  verses?

                  Genesis. Or do you mean verses about David? Try forming complete sentences, flex your brain.

                  2 Samuel 12:

                  Yahweh struck the child that Uriah’s wife bore to David, and he was very sick. 16 David therefore begged God for the child; and David fasted, and went in and lay all night on the ground. 17 The elders of his house arose beside him, to raise him up from the earth; but he would not, and he didn’t eat bread with them. 18 On the seventh day, the child died.

                  The whole story is fucked.

                  And original sin corrupted all of humanity

                  That’s exactly the problem, it’s punishing people who did not make the mistake for the mistake of their fathers. Right after you said that never happens.

                    1. When was his wife raped? And the child was killed to punish David. Also, the Old Testament was fulfilled by Christ

                    2. If I am a chainsmoker, my kids are probably gonna have negative effects from my chainsmoking right?

          Name one other religion that engages in door to door proselytism. I’ll wait.

          Your own violence begat the violence that you receive.

          Also, I said “any other religion,” stop lying. Typical US Christian.

          Also, don’t quote the Bible at me. I don’t follow your fanfiction book, so it doesn’t apply to me.

            Catholic Priests or Brothers or Deacons even wont come knocking at your door unless you requested it or they are concerned

            and how can I do an earthly deed of oppression after its already happened centuries ago?

              Changing the goalposts, I see.

              That doesn’t stop the very same deacons and priests from sending their followers to violently convert me.

              We are talking about Christianity as a whole, not just one specific sect.

              Again, you’re a typical US Christian. A liar.

                Catholicism is Christianity

                and will people stop retconning the US into my life?

                and which diocese/archdiocese sent violence after you?

                  Oh absolutely, Catholics are a part of Christianity. You’re the one that brought up Catholicism.

                  That would be whatever diocese runs Pope John Paul XXIII school. I’m not a Christian and after those fucks, the rest of Christianity won’t stop knocking on my door.

                  Other religions don’t do this. Hell even the “annoying” (to others, they seem fine to me,) Hari-Krishnas and Fulan Gong people only ever asked me for money, not forcibly tried to get me to follow their fanfic, and going to someone’s house with the intent to start a conversation they have not asked for is forceful conversion, or what Christianity calls proselytism.

                  Terribly sorry you aren’t American, congratulations on that. I called you a US Christian, because they are just as delusional about their persecution as you seem to be.

                    “the rest of Christianity”?

                    can you describe what happens when they knock on your door and what they say?
