I'm an atheist, so I eat them by taking the creme out and just eating the cookie dry, because I don't believe in milk.
Whole Oreos to mouth.
Into the maw.
Lol I guess then those who eat oreos without milk are pagans, heathens and heretics?
I hate god and milk, checks out.
I have a suspicion that Catholics use wine.
Can somebody give me the theological reasons for this? Also which one is the heretic?
If you want an actual answer, I can! Baptists believe that baptism must mimic the baptisms performed by John the Baptist, so they must be believers baptism (no infants) and, most importantly to the meme, full immersion. Presbyterians believe that infants can be baptized and raised in the faith and that any form of water getting on the baptized person (sprinkle, pour, or dunk) is acceptable.
The Baptist thinks the Presbyterian is a heretic, other Presbyterians think this Presbyterian is a heretic if they believe this is the only acceptable way of doing it.
The PC(USA) Book for Order W-3.0407 The Act of Baptism is where they wrote it down. Applied with the hand, by pouring, or through immersion.
Pretty much just get baptized once and you're good.
Oh! That's the others difference. Presbys only have one baptism. Baptists have no limit.
I can honestly say I didn't anticipate someone on Lemmy actually pulling a Book of Order reference (and I was way too lazy to look it up this morning).
Also, I think the Baptists also believe in one baptism (but again, only believers, so infants who were baptized need to be re-baptized for Baptists to recognize it). So I guess no double dipping Oreos for either.
I had it handy. They're doing an immersion at the river soon and they printed cards with the citation to let the congregation know it's fine.
I grew up Southern Baptist and it was common for people to be re-baptized if they had doubts or left the faith after their first time. The theological justification is that they must not have truly accepted Jesus into their hearts if the first baptism didn't "take," so if you asked to be re-baptized the pastor would ask you a bunch of questions to make sure you're actually serious this time.
I was baptized when I was 7 and have since left the church, but some of my family have begged me to come back and truly accept Jesus into my heart so I can be re-baptized.
..... I thought it was about communion....
Do the crackers get dipped in the wine?
There is a communion practice called "intinction" where the bread is dipped in the juice/wine. Probably not common in traditions that use "host" (crackers, but actually closer to styrofoam), but it is a thing.
Its a reference to how they do their baptisms.
both, the only holy way to eat oreos is with no milk, by opening 2 oreos, eating one crackly part of each and putting the 2 remains together so that theres double the sweet
can be repeated if you're really into it
can you get oreos without the middle part? the cookies are already super sugary, i'd think there are some people who would rather skip the diabetes cream.
I actually prefer the cookie to the cream. The cream is okay, I guess, but I could do without it.

Buddhists: the milk is an illusion
Nah, the Buddhist leaves the oreo in the milk until they become one.
As a Buddhist, thank you for considering this underserved audience. We typically get like two to three new jokes a year
Hindus: get that thing away from the holy beverage!
I like to put a fork through the filling and dip so I can eat the whole cookie without any dry parts or putting my fingers in the milk, what does that make me?
Autistic?
(I mean that literally and with love)
Do autistic people not like getting wet?
We are basically cats.
Some do some don’t. I love to be in water and feel most at home.
But the comment I responded to came off as a sensory issue which is why I answered autistic. Sensory issues like that are a major trait but it might not be that specific issue. Just in general.
Honestly it’s only because dipping your fingers into your drink just seems kinda gross, and with a fork you can fully soak the Oreo.
…..I like cookies 😁🍪
Touching wet food that used to be dry makes me want to explode 🫠
Damn you might be right.
Seems like a form of torture the spanish inquisition would have practiced, so catholic
Damn, I gotta try that
You can also just dunk the Oreo and fish it out with the fork ;)
Bonus: the fork can be used to weigh down the Oreo so you can get all the air bubbles out.
Quakers just eat the oreo dry.
Not before sitting in silence for at least an hour.
