    Christians forgive themselves and want to be forgiven for being absolute assholes.

      Christians forgive themselves

      This is the shittiest part. People will literally pray it away by thinking about it until they don’t feel terrible about themselves anymore and even ask a priest, a third party, for penitence to justify themselves. Like, your threats of eternal damnation sound ridiculous when you have an escape hatch for anything if you follow these steps to clean your conscience.
