As ever, Satan is the good guy.
I mean he was an angel that was kicked out of heaven for his don’t tread on me tee shirt…
But in all seriousness, the religious right has more in common with Satan than God. Pick one Good aspect of the Bible and the right does none of those things.
Lucifer was kicked out of Heaven for rebelling against God, which he did because he was jealous of humanity.
Or so the Paradise Lost goes. None of that shit is in the Bible.
was such a weird experience as a kid having a catholic preiest try explaining that, the devil rebelled because he was jealous of our free will. and lacking the language to engage that. “buddy the moral of your story is a big red flag for me when considering my accociation with this room full of people” was not a collection of words and concepts i had available to me as a small child. a desire for autonomy i got pretty easy though.
Ya essentially a Don’t tread on me shirt.

I disagree, Satan seems like a pretty reasonable dude from what I can tell. If anything, Old Testament God and conservatives line up fairly well.
Jesus on the other hand was a hardcore leftist.
The teachings of Jesus, the moral example of Jesus, is totally irrelevant. You can’t get into heaven by emulating Jesus. You can’t get everlasting life by treating people with compassion and respect. Those sermons and shit, that was just a hobby that Jesus engaged in that has no bearing on his purpose on Earth or what a Christian needs to do to be a Christian. The only way you can get into Heaven and see your mommy again is by unquestioningly accepting the dogma of Christianity, which is completely amoral by any humanist standard.
Holy Trinity my dude. Jesus is also his father and the ghost thing… Idk I never paid attention during church
God’s a petty asshole throughout much of the Bible. I’d say they have a lot in common with him.
True that’s why I said good things in the Bible.
