You're omnipotent, bruh. You don't have to be sassy, too.

God has been sassy and rhetorical since all the way back in Genesis 3.
But the Lord God called to the man and said to him, “Where are you?” And he said, “I heard the sound of you in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked, and I hid myself.” He said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten of the tree of which I commanded you not to eat?”

I'm not really a fan of that doge meme though. I have come to resent statements like "don't let political views shape your Christianity". These days I think anybody who is saying that is being counterintuitive and disingenuous. When they say that, what they really mean is "keep your religion to yourself". The way things are going, if we continue to keep it to ourselves and do not take a stand now, we will only have it taken from us very soon.

A huge reason the West is in the state it is in is because Christians decided to be non-confrontational, non-political pushovers who just focus on being nice and inoffensive. I don't know about being a "Traditionalist Third-Positionist Trad-Cath Ecofascist", but if we don't take up metaphorical arms and fight against the absurd political issues taking place in our society now, it will matter very, very soon. Perhaps not at the Resurrection, but it will matter. Besides, why shouldn't "speaking against injustice" count as "caring for God's people", anyway?

When you stand before God and he asks you "Why didn't you say anything when the leaders of your nations were openly advocating for the brainwashing and genital mutilation of small children", what are you going to say then? Well, if Christianity is about "following Christ and his example", you should know that Jesus advocated for drowning pedophiles in the sea.

You can no longer sit your fat ass at the computer screen like Boogie2288 and make fluffy Facebook posts about how we shouldn't take sides and should just tolerate everybody's opinions. We are too far beyond that point now. It is in fact time to be political.

My point is less that Christians shouldn't get involved in politics but more that the autistic ideological slapfights I see on Christian social media are completely useless and that there's too much focus on politics as opposed to the Faith. To put this into perspective, there's a lay Catholic website I often read even though I disagree with some of what it says. I went on it one day to find out that they had called distributism just another form of Nazism. How does alienating a significant part of traditionalist Christianity, be it Catholic or Orthodox, benefit the Faith in any way?

I know Chesterton's nephew, if I remember right, leaned to the right, but how exactly are co-ops and trying to devolve political, economic, and social power to the smallest possible unit equal to Nazism? I'm just a Protestant who appreciates my non-Protestant brethren and all, but that's about the dumbest thing I've heard. And I've seen the Progressive Christian Tik Toks. You guys need to break Benedict out and let him have a go at the Inquisition again. We need to throw these actual heretics out so we can get back to picking at nits.

I can't remember their reasoning exactly but it's safe to say that episode was not TiA's finest hour.
