If God suddenly appeared and said, "I have returned and I am very displeased!" and then he made all the televangelists and MAGAs burst into flames, I would say, "huh. I guess I was wrong."
I don't need much convincing.

I would assume I was mentally I’ll and having delusions. Is anyone else seeing this? :)
The upper right panel does not sit right with me
Are you going to tell us why, or leave us hanging?
can't hang me, I can fly
That comma changes the meaning of what you are trying to convey op. Just remove the comma. :)
Does this look like Facebook?
That's a wild use, of a, comma...
That fucking comma is changing the meaning of the sentence
More importantly science isn't afraid to admit when it's wrong and change its working theories and models to fit all available data. Being wrong is just as if not more important to science.
Absolutely not, science has a long history of ignoring and laughing at many new theories. Many of them were later found out to be true, sure, but it's not like religion doesn't change, reinterpret itself etc. along with the changing times.
All the while nowadays pendulum has swinged to the other side, and most of published papers are never peer-reviewed, as "science" working under a capitalist system must abide by its rules, and so quantity and shock value is more important than quality.
So while in theory "being wrong" sounds like something that would be useful for science in practice, no, it always was about being (or at least seeming) right.
(Established) scientists have a long history of ignoring new theories not science itself. But that's because at the end of the day scientists are still human.
Science is not great at working on a very short time scales. But give it enough time so more evidence is gathered and possibly some stubborn influential people (that can't accept a new theory) die and generally we get closer and closer to truth.
This is becoming another Reddit
I browse through memes and all of a sudden I find another post that slanders religion.
This meme does not talk about scripture nor does it mention the actual teachings of current mainstream faiths. It just likes to mock others and swerve them into hating their religion.
The only requirement to actually start believing in religion is to accept that God CAN exist (agnosticism), the next step would just be to read through the right religious scriptures.
This is a hot take, but I’m sure a meme slandering your precious homos and trans buddies that’s similar to this post would cause a huge ton of backlash. Just saying, this is pretty much just another degenerate subreddit now.
See our gay and trans friend EXIST.
That's why it would be rude. God doesn't.
But you see he isn't pissed at you attacking God, he is pissed at you attacking religious people, who didn't do anything to you (don't you dare generalize) and you are just being rude, and can't let people enjoy their thing.
But I didn't attack anybody existing or not. Plus religious people did terrible things to humanity we are allowed to make fun of that.
As I said don't generalize. I, as a relegious person, who didn't commit any of those terrible things, nor do I approve of them do feel targeted by this. I mean, this meme could be used as a great joke in a good context. I just think putting it on the internet without any of that is not a good thing, as it just seems like an unprovoked attack.
you dont approve of them then why are you a follower of said religions that still advocate for terrible things?
Right now I don't see them doing "terrible things". I do not approve of things like burning people in the middle ages and such. You could make an argument about, for example sexual minorities being oppressed by them, but right now even that is getting fixed.
"my fellow nazi dont kill much people anymore so i guess its chill"
i get the comparison is extreme but most organised religions literally are against any lgbtq people existing and more. Based on nothing, made up stories and you are here with your functioning human logic telling me thats ok and i shouldnt even joke about it???
I trigger Godwin's law, thus you have lost the argument. Have a good day.
