Blessed is the round, and blessed is the cartridge for it holds the round and all of its fury
Blessed is the magazine for receiving the round and holding it close.
Blessed is the barrel, for providing direction and guidance to the round
And most of all, blessed is Kurt Cobain for giving the round purpose, and for receiving all of its love within his body 😌

Apparently the way to make suicide jokes still funny in 2025 is to have had it happen in the 90s and for the person to be famous and queer?

The Vatican is such a huge scandalous and r@py real estate conglomerate. It's crazy that in 2025 hardly anyone is pointing it out. Goes to show theres still lots of preconceived notions that needs to be addressed

The holy hand grenade of Antioch is a Anglican relic you absolute dolt.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 hours ago

Yeah - there's actual video evidence of it exploding! Unfortunately that means that it no longer exists, so that would explain why it's absent from the Pope's blessèd gun rack.

[contemplates going on a tangent about the Branch Theory of Anglican identity, decides against it]

[–] [email protected] 4 points 21 hours ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

So, Anglican theologians like John Keble and John Henry Newman (who later converted to Roman Catholicism) built off of a notion advanced by the 16th Century Anglican Divines that viewed Anglican Christianity as a distinct branch that developed alongside Roman Catholicism and Orthodoxy. Things like the Synod of Whitby are cited as evidence that the Roman church worked hard to bring this distinct form of the church inline with Roman polity and practices (in some views Celtic Christianity is viewed as being part of this wider “English” branch of the faith). This resulted in a long-standing tenuous relationship with English Christianity and the Catholicism of continental Europe (reflected in things like the Sarum rite, etc.). So when the Reformation happened, this gave the opportunity for English Christianity to pick up where they left off and live into that distinct mode of being.

Given this, according to branch theory proponents, there would be Anglicans in the 900s. They were just put under the veil of Roman Christianity at the time.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 hours ago

Ah, the Roman Catholic Church and government. One of the most destructive and violent church governments on the last 2 millinea, now they are still very rapy molesty, but now the world's largest realty corporation that pays zero taxes.

Wait... no, it's still the same as the last 2 millinea, given the roman Catholic Church government's didn't pay taxes and owned a massive amount of stolen and conquered land

For those who don’t want to visit Facebook:

The priest is blessing hunting rifles at the beginning of the season so that they will provide food and not harm people.

[–] [email protected] 33 points 1 day ago (2 children)

But humans can be food, and less people means more food for the rest of us, which overall doesn't harm people...

I know you’re joking, but humans eating humans is how you get kuru disease. The only safe way to eat a person is to process them into Soylent Green first.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kuru_(disease)

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Kuru is just one form of prion disease that was found in one group of people. And from what I remember, it has never been found elsewhere, as it most likely developed as a sub-type of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease(another prion disease)

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 day ago (2 children)

If you don't eat the brain you'll have a much much lower risk (your link suggests about 9x less likely), and if the person you eat wasn't a cannibal then your risk is lower still.

Also worth mentioning that Kuru is a specific disease for natives in Papua new guinea , and it only existed for about 100years and was going away on it's own when the cannibalistic practice was outlawed.

I think the health risks of cannibalism is very exaggerated.

(this is not an endorsement of cannibalism)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 hours ago

Thanks for the cannibalism tips.

Do they deal holy damage now?

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 day ago (2 children)
+10 holy damage
+3 critical hit chance
+2 accuracy
-5 damage against atheists
[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

How much damage can a human take though?

Based on these stats, going to guess 10-15HP, tops.

Cops once shot an innocent bystander more than 100 times and he didn't die

Bad news on the religious beliefs of deer.....

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 hours ago

Yeah I think many humans worship the deer religion. I hear people say "Deer God..." when they pray.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Sigh. I would dearly love a proper bolt-action rifle. I've got a .22 (my first gun!) and a .22 magnum (left handed!), but zero excuse for a "real" caliber as I don't hunt and my range at camp only goes out 100'.

Love the Marlin 1895SBL from Jurassic Park but I'm not hunting dinosaurs or 2,000lb. bison. Plus, the .45-70 (AR-15 round on the far left) would probably amputate my skinny armpit.

More on point, the first American Pope! I'll look forward to reading more about how the College of Cardinals landed on this guy so quickly. Not sure I've seen a Pope chosen that fast!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 hours ago

If you want a lot of fun at the range, blackpowder is a riot.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

look into a .270. not a small caliber when you're used to a 22 but not massive in the whole scheme of things. they're quite fun at that range you were describing too, and they give you the opportunity to go a lot longer if you ever need/want it.

a .270 was my first hunting rifle, if a scrawny 11 year old could use it I have faith in you :)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

.270 is a neat caliber. I rarely hear about it (not that I frequent gun discussions) but am familiar with it because that’s the caliber of my dad’s deer hunting rifle which also belonged to my WW2 veteran grandfather.

And yeah it’s not very comparable to a 22 except for starting with a two. It’s a high powered rifle. You can think of it like a .30-06 but with a slightly smaller and faster bullet.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

oo I bet that rifle was beautiful. I'd love to have an older hunting rifle, there's something about how they age that makes them gorgeous to me.

I had a savage .270, it was a smaller model they made especially for youth. loved that thing.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 hours ago

I remember my dad telling me decades ago how it was such quality because it was old enough to have forged parts rather than machined.

I am nearly certain I don’t have easy access to a photo of it, but it was a classic look. Bolt action rifle with a dark barrel, all wood body and stock, modest scope, and a leather carrying strap.

I don’t really admire the look of guns any more than I might with something like a power drill. But in this case it’s associated with nice memories of when Dad let me shoot the big rifle from grandpa, or just hiking through the woods with my dad while he was the one carrying it.

For some background, I’m obviously American, but I also had an early childhood out in the country. I mean “I played in the corn field that bordered my giant back yard” country. I knew the farmer too, because he’d let my dad hunt on his land. Sometimes we’d hang out in his house and BS on the way in or out.
