I thought they were saying god was on the beetle spectrum. like, god is a beetle.

now that I reconsider it I think that might be because I'm autistic.

At this point it feels like 80% of the population in social networks is in the spectrum. Being neurodivergent has become neurotypical.

[–] Infynis@midwest.social 10 points 10 months ago (1 children)

It definitely feels like "neurotypical," at the very least, isn't the extreme majority it's made out to be

We say from our echo chambers while marvelling at how inefficient and poorly run the world around us is.

He seems like a cool guy. Everyone should follow him

[–] nichtburningturtle@feddit.org 24 points 10 months ago (3 children)

He might kill you and your family from time to fime to test your faith for no reason. But other than that he's a good guy. Trust me.

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 23 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I think they meant the wraith guy that posted it, not "god". But for someone named wraith, to encourage following another person named wraith seems suspicious.

[–] nichtburningturtle@feddit.org 15 points 10 months ago (1 children)

You might be right. I misread it as sarcasm.

[–] WraithGear@lemmy.world 12 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

“Both? Both. both is good.”

[–] AFallingAnvil@lemmy.ca 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

So it's wrong for me to test God but when he tests me I'm just supposed to be cool with it? Fuck that

[–] nichtburningturtle@feddit.org 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Ofcourse you have to. After all he made you in his own image and you are a good person, right?

[–] AFallingAnvil@lemmy.ca 1 points 10 months ago

I'm a lazy person, which kind of explains a lot now that I think about it

[–] Mango@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

This is the purpose of bad faith arguments.

[–] Akasazh@feddit.nl 20 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Well that God guy did have an awesome seven day hyperfocus creation project going a while back and has done very little since.

So that checks out

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

he did more like 6000 years ago, 2000 years ago and 1400 years ago too

[–] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 13 points 10 months ago (1 children)

According to Ponder Stibbons, he is obsessed with them.

[–] dalekcaan@lemm.ee 3 points 10 months ago

To say nothing of cockroaches...

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago (1 children)

The kind of vengeful gods I worship are down with my ASD homies and are flattered by the comparison.

[–] dragonfucker@lemmy.nz 1 points 10 months ago

Actually, it's an equation, an equivalence, or an equivocation.

[–] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 4 points 10 months ago

“Preacher” probably has the best modern interpretation of god, and He would definitely send you straight to hell for calling him autistic. Unless you also share his love of beetles, in which case he will make fun of you for liking beetles and then punt you down.

[–] SonicDeathTaco@lemm.ee 4 points 10 months ago

Probably George, maybe Ringo.

[–] ObsidianZed@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago (2 children)

It took me a second. I don't really care for "spectrum" being universally used to represent specifically the autism spectrum. Obviously there are other spectrums, most everything can probably be defined by a spectrum.

[–] Hammocks4All@lemmy.ml 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)
[–] Zara@feddit.it 2 points 10 months ago

Light has a spectrum and God is frequently associated with light, so you may be onto something.... Shall we found a new religion?

[–] Mango@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

I'm on the Spectrum too. A gigabit for $60!

[–] Etterra@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago (2 children)

God? Oh you mean the Tyrant. Yeah fuck that guy, he didn't create shit.

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

On the 7th day he was arrested (he knows what he did)

[–] Hupf@feddit.org 1 points 10 months ago

Of course, he's omniscient

[–] Mango@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

What are you on about?

[–] huf@hexbear.net 1 points 10 months ago

as seen in terry pratchett's last continent (i think that's the one with the god of evolution)
