    Don’t Christians believe the entire purpose of the rainbow is a promise their god won’t drown them all again?

    I suppose in that regard; the rainbow is actually pretty fucking evil

      Yes, biblically it serves as a reminder to god and humanity that god promised he wouldn’t use a flood to destroy all life on earth again. I guess he was worried that he’d forget or something. Like oops. I can’t kill all humanity by flood, I need to use a different method, good thing that rainbow reminded me.

        So, in a sense, gays (rainbow) are also a reminder to God that he wouldn’t use a flood to destroy all life on earth again, so any time I get plumbed, I’m reminding god not to destroy earth!

          Exactly! We’re helping!

          He didn’t rule out fire, volcanoes, asteroids, or anything else. But at least it won’t be a worldwide flood again lol

      Every time a Christian bitches about a pride flag, we should say to them, “why do you hate God and Noah?”

        I just think about their how bigotry has taken the joy of rainbows away from them.

        Well, you see… it comes from the old testament, so it only counts every other seventh word on the third Tuesday of the month. Unless it’s about gay people obviously

        As a Christian who actually paid a lick of attention to what the Bible claims Jesus said, I agree.

      What, really!? My high school science teacher told it was because the water in the atmosphere splits the light into 7 colors. I have been ripped off, dude.
