Only liking this for the buried lede…decades of government-meddling, torture, and genocide, but now it’s spearheaded by women. Yay progress!

Well, now, sure… but do you know how long women with masochistic streaks had to struggle to get the same respect as men? Decades, I tells ya… /s

If Jesus was here today, how would he have dealt with the aggressors and bullying powers? Would he have tolerated this? Or would he have resisted, defended the oppressed, and asserted human rights?

Not so unusual, seeing as how many Christians can’t be bothered to learn Jesus’ teachings.

Less apocryphal:

II have a great respect for Christianity. I often read the Sermon on the Mount and have gained much from it. I know of no one who has done more for humanity than Jesus. In fact, there is nothing wrong with Christianity, but the trouble is with you Christians. You do not begin to live up to your own teachings.
