Where in the Bible does God command you to be hard in the way the first tweet is suggesting? I know he commands you to be hard in the other way with the line that says “go forth and multiply.”
I’m built for comfort not for speed
nothing manlier than animal exploitation and a total disregard for climate change.
Most men I know are doughy as fuck.
Get thee to a gym. Stop eating crap.
…No? That’s literally the exact opposite of what the biblical God expects of men.
Jesus says that men should be compassionate, selfless, giving, and loving. That they should help orphans & widows, the sick & injured, people in prison and even… foreigners.
Christianity has been invaded & commodified for even more horrific purposes. And I could not be more disappointed in anyone who believes this slop. Because the ones who believe this are the ones who never read the Bible and takes everything at face value.
And a pastor or someone successful claiming to be a “Christian” would never lie! Right? …RIGHT???
They can no longer discern the wolves from their flock, and God will not have mercy on them.
Hallelujah, holy shit.

I’m gonna steel-man this. I don’t think that being “hard” means being an asshole. It can mean having strength of character. Courage in the face of fear, that kind of thing. You can be that kind of hard and also be compassionate.
Having said that, it is pretty shitty to assign that to a gender. Anybody of any gender can have a strong character. Also, I haven’t read the article this is referring to, so it could be full of toxic masculinity for all I know.
Have you read the Old Testament? Genocide is pretty “hard” I’d say.
I’m a formerly of the faith. I’ve read it all an uncountable amount of times.
The New Testament is kinda of a “new era” for the tone of Christianity. The sacrifice of Jesus was the old ways being re-written and ushering in the new way. His death made it so people no longer had to make blood sacrifices and offerings in order to be forgiven. It really is a beautiful story.
The absolute selfishness and barbarism endorsed by many modern-day “Christians” would make Jesus weep.
Luckily, Jesus also promises that they will get what they are owed in the end.
How did I know this was going to be the reply… You’re not even Christian anymore, and you’re still doing apologetics.
17 “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. 18 For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.
Matthew 5:17-18
The whole “new covenant” thing is just a convenient way for Christians to convince others (and often themselves) that their religion isn’t complete hateful trash.
And LOL at:
They will get what they are owed in the end.
IF YOU HARD YOU HARD
I think what cracks me up is this Eric Conn dude is probably a keyboard warrior working a desk job or something. I highly doubt he’s out busting his ass herding cattle and building fences then making some self righteous post on xitter.
The hard, true man Eric conn is a rancher with a blog. Doing God’s real work of desissyfying America, one substack article at a time.
The world needs more hard men like this guy with his online journal!
Right? The hardest men I’ve ever known LOVED to write self-help articles for people they looked down on in their spare time. 🙄
Where is the passage where God asked men to be hard?
Probably Genesis 3:17-19. Our society has turned decadent. We have to go back to toiling in the fields, as God intended!
When God says “cum before me”
The virgin Mary isn’t gonna be a virgin forever with that kinda talk.
I dunno. Maybe. Have you seen that jacked up Korean Jesus?
That’s the out Jesus for me. Otherwise I’m a weird pagan
If Jesus came back, these dipshits would have him crucified way faster than those nerd ass Romans.
In the U.S. we’d have him deported for being brown and communist/socialist/Marxist or whatever the current trend is to accuse people of.
woke
That woke as brown spanish named bastard
Don’t forget DEI
He would be called an anti-semite as soon as he criticized the mass murdering of his countrymen in Palestine.
