    Theologically speaking, it’s the opposite: nobody deserves mercy, but God gives it to them anyways. But you’d have to open a Bible to know that, which none of these ghouls have.

      I thought that was no one deserves God’s mercy. Not that the mewling masses don’t deserve mercy from each other.

        Are we really quibbling over the logic in a make-believe book about sky daddy?

          What an incredibly apathetic view. Do you dare not learn all you can with what miniscule time we have here? How much history, story, mythos, and philosophy do you miss out on? Are the Vedas treated with such blantant disregard? The Parthenon? Ted Lasso was right, it’s significantly better to be curious and not judgemental.

            Yeah it’s pretty sad to see comments such as this. It’s a terribly unpoetic way to live life, cutting themselves off from 90% of the intellectual discourse produced during humanity’s history :(
