Regarding Dr. Maalouf's post, for what it's worth...
Pastor Dillon Awes of Stedfast Baptist Church in Watauga said gay people "are dangerous to society” and “all homosexuals are pedophiles.”
By: Minyvonne Burke
Published: Jun 10, 2022
A Texas baptist church — labeled an "anti-LGBT hate group" by the Southern Poverty Law Center — has caused outrage after a pastor said gay people should be "lined up against the wall and shot in the back of the head."
Pastor Dillon Awes of Stedfast Baptist Church in Watauga, a suburb of Fort Worth, made the comment and other controversial remarks during a Sunday morning sermon titled "Why We Won’t Shut Up."
However, the point is still taken. The Xian pastor made headline news and was widly condemned. On the other hand, an imam screaming for the death of all blasphemers, kafir and infidels while people say stupid things like "it's not true Islam" or "my Muslim friends don't agree" is just another day ending in "y."
Me: Idk if I'm bisexual anymore, I really like women mostly.
Anders and Solas: *sow lies, deceit, and betrayal*
Me: Oh my god I want to fuck those twinks.
what's an apostate? I'm not fluent in english
An apostate is the opposite of an apostle. It means someone who used to belong to a religion but then left it.
are jewish apostates / meshumadim in (or out of ig) jewish communities treated like christian apostates/satanists are in christianity? is there any movements like satanism but jewish(originating?)?

Dalish Clans Can Only Have 3 Mages
Another explanation for the “Dalish clans can only have 3 mages” — other than it being another piece of chantry propaganda to make the elves look bad/justify their own mistreatment of mages — is that this is a lie Dalish tell non-Dalish to keep the Templars off their back, bc you know that if the Chantry heard that Dalish clans have 10+ mages they’d be lighting that shit up big time.
Alternatively, it’s half true in that they have 3 official mages — the Keeper and their First and Second in line — and everyone else is just another dude who happens to have magic. Case in point: when you side with the werewolves against Zathrian’s clan, a bunch of randos start coming at you with magic. There’s no reason you can’t have magic and contribute to your clan without being a wizard all the time.
In regards to Minaeve’s clan, we already know that the Dalish are not homogenous. It’s perfectly likely that for some reason or another, they’re just like that. Maybe they got attacked by Templars recently and decided to overcorrect in response, maybe something got lost in translation and they thought every clan was doing that now, or maybe they’re just assholes and don’t care what the other clans are doing. Just bc Minaeve’s clan is like that doesn’t mean the rest of the Dalish are the same.
Furthermore, maybe that’s where the misinformation comes from in the first place? One Dalish clan kicks out their mages, who end up as apostates or taken in by the Circles, and bc they’re the only Dalish mage representation most non-Dalish ever meet, they end up heavily misinformed about common Dalish practices. When talking to Minaeve as Lavellan, you can sound pretty surprised that it’s even a thing, like you’d never heard of it before bc it’s not commonly done.
Perhaps I shouldn’t take it so personally or pay much attention to it but I can’t quite shake the disgust I feel for the lengths Christians will go to utterly demonize atheists/apostates and strip us of our humanity and dignity. These people hate us and for what? For simply not believing? For questioning and putting their claims to task? For leaving religion? Apparently reducing people to caricatures and regarding them as subhuman is permissible so as long as it is done in Jesus’ name. Hate and abuse is permissible in Jesus’ name I guess.
