If the afterlife is real they should just go now then and let the rest of us suffer on earth without them

Even if we grant all that... aren't you a good Christian American conservative woman?

When you're done being a "reporterette" (in the words of Rush Limbaugh, not my sexist term!) you should be pumping out babies to carry on your husband's White Christian bloodline... aren't you concerned about the state of the planet for your children and grandchildren? Don't you need them to carry on the fight against diversity, justice, and tolerance?

We've been waiting for your rapture or second coming for centuries now, let's have an insurance policy in case the earth lasts a bit longer, shall we?

Honestly if I believed an afterlife was really, truly real, this is probably how I'd think. Why bother caring about a tiny 80-90 year blip of an existence when you have a literal eternity waiting for you? Just to be clear, I don't believe in an afterlife.

Christianity teaches that God gave humanity stewardship over the earth, so you have to think he will be mighty pissed if we fuck it up.

This isn't a new viewpoint, sadly. My dad's friend is a minister who believes we should use this planet up and throw it away like a soda can due to the afterlife that awaits us.

Whether an afterlife is real or not, I don't see a point in trying to save the human aspects of Earth. Keep humans around, and, eventually, you'll just be back to having to save Earth again and again and again.

No because they're inherently selfish assholes that care only about themselves. The very same kind the Bible explicitly warns about. "Fuck you got mine" is a very real mentality and it is why the GOP has been so god fucked damned successful courting them

Judaism is at its core not apocalyptic, even though it might have some apocalyptic language in certain books. The end of the world and an afterlife is a very minor aspect of Judaism that only pops up when times seem dire.

Christianity is absolutely apocalyptic, and the ultimate goal of the religion is the end of the world. If you don't mind being a complete monster, acceleration-ism would probably be a viable strategy.

If they're Baptists, they believe that once you're baptized, you're forever forgiven (effectively) unless you commit like murder or something particularly heinous/egregious

This is the part that always gets me, yeah.

"Humanity will be the stewards of God's Gift and watch over His creation"

If they even remotely believe half the shlock in the bible, then they shouldn't be so gung ho about destroying the planet.

If the afterlife is real why outlaw abortion? In fact, why have laws or even social norms and standards in the first place? If having a habitable place to live doesn't matter why would anything else? Next time that brand of religious conservative cries about how oppressed they are just tell them to suck it up and wait to enjoy the afterlife.

I will point out that there are Christian environmentalist groups. It's not the norm in American Christianity to embrace environmentalism but those two things are not intrinsically opposed.

Hell... Jesus tells them to give up their worldly possesions.

The bible says it's easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter heaven!

Yeah but the thing is Jesus Christ could come back to Earth right now, show definitive proof that he is the son of God and conservatives would probably try to have him killed because he's a socialist

Heaven scares me more than Hell.

Simply put, Heaven and Hell are the same place in my eyes and only Hell is the honest depiction.

It is also my belief that souls are parasitic black boxes that record our time on Earth and take our minds into the afterlife and used against you like in a human court of law.

My own brother told me that Jesus is the best (and by extension, only) defense lawyer you get.

I asked him, "why am I on trial for existing?".

He gave me some inane ramble about being "tested" and "duty to serve God".

My family is waiting for me to crawl back to Christianity and I have no intention on participating in a trial about my life and simply tell God to "fuck off" and spit in his face.
