Video footage of a young girl trying to flee an inferno caused by a Monday Israeli airstrike that killed dozens of Palestinians including her mother and siblings sparked global outrage and calls for an immediate cease-fire in what one former Israeli prime minister called a “war of extermination.”
Stories like this are why I laugh a little inside whenever someone tries to tell me there’s a good and just god somewhere out there.
The “good and just God” is just going to make it up to all these people in the infinite afterlife, and inflict eternal suffering on the perpetrators!
/s but some people genuinely believe this
Actually, many evangelicals believe this is part of God’s plan.

The Holocaust was enough for me. I don’t know how humanity can keep faith after ww2.
Yeah, any vestiges of faith I had didn’t survive my reading of Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee and People’s History of the United States.
If there is a god out there, they’re like that kid from Toy Story that likes to break his toys and burn them with a magnifying glass.
Original testament God was a vengeful, narcissistic fuck. So all of this kind of fits.
And Christian God excuse is that this is all just part his plan and that he is testing faith.
It’s all fucking stupid.
Can I have the “religion bad” self insert comment next?
I wanna be in the middle of the circlejerk
The block button is right there, friend. Have a wonderful Tuesday.
People just need to believe, apparently.
