So this happened today
Catholic ADHD coach
So you know those ads on facebook that appear on the side? The ones that usually have something to do with things you like or things about you, like “do you like Bob Dylan? Check out this band you’ve never heard of and probably has a far inferior sound!”
Anyway, I happened to glance at these ads once and saw one for a “Catholic ADHD coach.” At first I thought, thats a weird was to advertise your ADHD treatment, based solely on the fact that you’re Catholic. I’m sure the treatment itself must be the same as all the others though, since thats kinda how science works.
Nope. It was advertised as “belief-based coaching.” Treatment that wouldn’t go against your beliefs.
Who’s ADHD treatment is going against their beliefs? Who is treating their inability to focus and pay attention with Satanism? Who is trying to stop being hyper and inattentive by sacrificing a goat in the middle of a pentagram while reciting incantations from the Necrinomicon Ex Mortis?
And the strangest thing is I thought these ads were tailored by your profile to be things that were relevant to you. I don’t have ADHD. And its not that I cured it with some goats blood and don’t have it anymore. I never had it. Although I guess I do now. Facebook would never lie to me.
The Fire and Brimstone preachers
Every now and then, on my way to class, I will encounter a group of people yelling at the top of their lungs about Jesus, God, the Bible and how every other human being, other then the 20 or so people in their church, are all going to hell.
What I’ve noticed about these men (and they are all men, since in their mind, women are to be subservient and not allowed to speak unless spoken to) is that several of them are shaved. The reason this is odd is because they claim that they follow the letter of the Bible. Which is obviously not entirely true, because they seem to have skipped over Lev. 19:27 which states: “Ye shall not round the corners of your head, neither shalt thou mar the corners of thy beard.” Basically, if they were to actually follow the letter of the Bible, they would look Hasidic. They would be Jews + Jesus.
I find it insane that they devote so much time to a book they obviously haven’t read all the way through. I mean imagine doing that with anything else. How ridiculous would it be to become the president of the Pride and Prejudice fan club without having ever read the whole thing. People would laugh at you
And they also deny science that makes sense just because it contradicts the book they haven’t finished reading yet. For example, I was talking to one of the preachers about evolution and he said, “I believe in micro-evolution. I believe beings change slightly over time, I just don’t believe a snake is going to change into a horse.”
NO ONE IS ARGUING THAT. No scientist is publishing his theory of snakes magically transmogrifying themselves into horses. And there is also no such thing as “micro-evolution.” There is just evolution, which is defined as beings changing slightly over long periods of time.
