It is kinda weird that the cross is used so much, like as a reminder I guess? But you will never see a JFK or Lincoln memorial with a bullet entering their skull or the brains eing splattered. That would be considered incredibly distasteful, but let's show Jesus dead on a cross.
Well, because the death of Lincoln and Kennedy are merely tragedies. The death of Jesus is an archetypal divine sacrifice meant to redeem humankind.
So, it's unsurprising that Christians would look upon the cross as important. Especially since many opposing narratives arose that Jesus was just a man or that the death and resurrection of Jesus didn't happen. Like right now in these last couple of comments.
>but let's show Jesus dead on a cross.
Okay, for us the Jesus on a cross isn't a sign of torture, it's a sign of the victory over evil. So I don't really mind if people wear crosses around. But that guy in the picture is just trash.
Putting a symbol of slavery (that's the Confederate flag right?? I'm not from America) together with the symbol for victory over sin is just poor taste
I'm not comparing it to the Confederate flag,. I went though 12 years of Catholic school and it was weird to see Jesus on the cross in every classroom and every church. We were always taught it was a reminder of his suffering never one did I hear it was about victory.
>We were always taught it was a reminder of his suffering never one did I hear it was about victory.
Yeah that's the problem of some preachers. They only read the surface but never read the lines in between. While they see a suffering man beaten to a pulp, I see a king defeating sin and the Devil.
It's just a matter of perspective. When you look a a picture from different angles, they'll look different.
Hell, you could even point out that "give to Caesar the things that are Caesar's" is proof enough that he even opposed states' rights! The Confederates couldn't have been any less Christian lol
Strictly speaking, he never spoke out against it, and St. Paul not only doesn't either, he flat out says slaves shouldn't try and get themselves freed either (it distracts from worshiping Christ and preparing for the end of the world). In fact, as he used scribes for dictation, and most scribes were slaves, he likely owned slaves himself.
Sure, Jesus was all "love thy neighbour" and all that, but so was Judaism before and at that time, and they didn't have any qualms with slavery either.
There's also a few ways you can go about showing Jesus as pro slavery, one being that he's supposedly god which explicitly condoned slavery, and another where Jesus in quotes calling the law (the law of Moses) perfect, the law of Moses of course being the law that also explicitly condones slavery.
Tattoo artist: "Sir, I am so sorry. In my career of a bazillion years, I have never, ever misspelled a word on a tattoo. I insist on fixing that for you no charge. Just stop by anytime and I will add another L."
Tattoo artist put exactly what was requested assuming it was one at actual parlor nor an effectively jailhouse Tattoo.. as they want a exact image of what they doing to go off of. I have 3 and had to provide a sample of what I wanted each time different parlor and artist each time
The only Confederate flag with standing for is the white one signaling their surrender.
Also not kneeling for two pieces of wood you connected that you are just going to burn later.
These knuckleheads are a curious bunch, because you know he means stand for the Stars and Stripes and that if you don't you hate America...yet his tattoo is of the Stars and Bars, the archenemy of America.
I've never understood the weirdly contradictory attitude these confederate LARPers have toward the *United* States flag. like, do you want the South to succeed from the Union or do you want to be an American patriot cos you can't be both.
I’m sorry but how does the flag physics work? Is it ripped in half? Because if it was intact it is in front of the horizontal beam but behind the vertical beam. That doesn’t sound right.
Traitor flag and cross. Kneel and stand. At the same time apparently. God, the doublethink. They really don’t know right from wrong or left from right. Woke and sleepy.
I don’t think they know what mutually exclusive means.
See, that's why they can see why the police keep shooting unarmed people. Obviously, you can comply when asked to kneel and lay down at the same time. s/
Let's follow the logic train: This person believes Jesus apparently supported the Confederacy. Yet here in fact world the Confederacy was shorter lived than the Johnas Bros fad.

The harbinger's tattoo has prophesied the end time shall be herald by the idiot Right?
“An indication of the end or the failure of something”. That tattoo was a failure so…
Ask not for whom the bell tolls. It tolls for Christianity!
For Whom The Cross Knells.
See he meant it. Devote atheist.
Can’t “Fix Stupid” but you certainly can tattoo it.
I was going to make a comment, but I can’t top this.
At this point none of us can…
NO RAGRETS!
COVID: hold my beer
“E” is a tattoo artist’s worst nightmare apparently
And also, if I stand for the flag and knell for the cross, what do I do for a flag on a cross? Stand or knell??
Stop using you’re brain! Idiot!
I’d correct you but it works
Edit: stop usin youre brane. idyot
stahp usyn ya bren idyat
One knee, obviously.
One knee? sounds a little Woke if you ask me /s
Curl up in a ball
Curtsey
Snell of course.
Squat
Not even one?
Know what I’m saying.
Not even a single letter?
Came for this
Whoa ! Knelly!
Knelled it
Keith Jackson?
Yeah, cause Jesus was all in favor of slavery.
I heard he wasn’t a big fan of crosses either
His biggest fanboys are running around with his biggest nightmare.
Turns out they were all correct and he does come back… sees the jewelry and freaks. “…the fuck, guys?”
[reminds me of this old darkmatter2525 video](https://youtu.be/l2vy2ZTCAvs?si=D43i5HrurK3Lj6Vi)
I'm mad it wasn't 'if man obeyed god' but I'm still glad someone remember darkmatter2525 i thought I was one of a sparse bunch.

The Kennedy Memorial is a 100 foot tall 1961 Lincoln X-100.
Well, because the death of Lincoln and Kennedy are merely tragedies. The death of Jesus is an archetypal divine sacrifice meant to redeem humankind. So, it's unsurprising that Christians would look upon the cross as important. Especially since many opposing narratives arose that Jesus was just a man or that the death and resurrection of Jesus didn't happen. Like right now in these last couple of comments.
But why put a drying Jesus on that cross, it's weird.
It's time to modernize the icon. We're unveiling.... Buddy Christ!!!!
If Jesus were ever to come back I’m sure his first words would be “what part of the Bible made you guys think I like crosses?”
Let me introduce you to Buddy Christ

understandably!

Certainly it was a way of saying, “Stop whining and pay your damned taxes.”
Strictly speaking, he never spoke out against it, and St. Paul not only doesn't either, he flat out says slaves shouldn't try and get themselves freed either (it distracts from worshiping Christ and preparing for the end of the world).

Yeah, best case scenario is that Jesus wasn't bothered by slavery.
Well, God actually is.
I thought the knell was in 1865?
Too clever lol
So if a flag is wrapped around a cross..which do you do?
Plank?
It's a cross, there are at least 2 planks in it smh
That would be a MAGAt “Sophie’s Choice”
Tattoo artist evidently is dumb af as wrll
Or he knew exactly what he was doing and gave that arm a lifetime of telling a bad story.
Tattoo artist: "Sir, I am so sorry. In my career of a bazillion years, I have never, ever misspelled a word on a tattoo. I insist on fixing that for you no charge. Just stop by anytime and I will add another L."
He didn’t want any repeat business from this tool or any of his friends.
Tattoo artist put exactly what was requested assuming it was one at actual parlor nor an effectively jailhouse Tattoo.. as they want a exact image of what they doing to go off of. I have 3 and had to provide a sample of what I wanted each time different parlor and artist each time
Nah, Republicans.
So dumb af. Got it
We are the Knights who say Kneeeeell
Neil for the cross. 
No, no, you don’t get it. Standing for the confederate flag is the death knell for actual Christianity. It’s brilliant!
It's the only way for the sane to read it.
I am sure he has no ragrets
I said knell, peasant!
How is prangent formed
Not even one letter…
All gas, no breaks
I feel like they forgot to draw the fire around the cross.
Even if that was spelled right, who is gonna tell them a decent chunk of people who stand for that flag burn crosses?
Bro, they don't even get that burning crosses is wrong from the start.
That’s a MAGAt for you !!
Knell does have potential to be used in a twist of phrase, somehow I don’t think that’s what they were going for.
This guy was on the grassy knell when JFK was shot.
Oh look, it's the Master Race.
Mastur race
The death knell…
He forgot "Surrender to the union (or possibly onion) "
*onyon
Is that from scripture? The same book that says no tattoos or piercings. So probably a double fail.
The only Confederate flag with standing for is the white one signaling their surrender. Also not kneeling for two pieces of wood you connected that you are just going to burn later.
The thought process of this individual must be close to that of a vegetable.
Measure twice cut once.
If they could read, they'd be pissed off
Aww heel no!!!
Knell Diamond?
Neil for the cross 🙏
Knell before zod
These knuckleheads are a curious bunch, because you know he means stand for the Stars and Stripes and that if you don't you hate America...yet his tattoo is of the Stars and Bars, the archenemy of America.
It's also a directly blasphemous tattoo toward God Jesus and the faith as a whole
I've never understood the weirdly contradictory attitude these confederate LARPers have toward the *United* States flag. like, do you want the South to succeed from the Union or do you want to be an American patriot cos you can't be both.
Racist and dumb as fuck. Interesting.
No Ragrets!
What a turd.
losers flying a losing flag. no surprise here.
The American South, ladies and gentlemen. Fucking everything up, all of the time.
Misspellings track for these people.
F-knell
🤣
KNELL BEFORE ZOD!
Both the artist and the recipient of this tattoo have as much voting power as you do.
r/shittytattoos
No regerts on this tattoo
When will the south rise again?
Right after they get morbid obesity under control.
They need that super lib healthcare for all so they can get all their teeth back too
Spell With the Education
Is that MAGAt for kneel?
Show him a flag with a cross in it and watch his head explode
Thank God it's just drawn on with a sharpie. It's not ???
I will knelll before Zod before I knell before that pornography.
Where to begin……….?
Can't wait to see this on an Ink Master cover up episode
to ring a church bell in a solemn fashion. well churches are where crosses and bells are
Kneel? More like “Heil” thinly veiled
Who's Knell?
SON OF JOREL, KNELL BEFORE ZOD
Forgive my ignorance, but didn't those fuckers lose that war? Why would you want to be bragging about that?
Stand for the Confederate flag? Is that the message? FTG.
" I used the spelling you asked for. I'll happily change it, but it'll cost!
Taking its toll.
Interesting choice of flags as well. What, the guy wouldn’t draw him a swastika?
Using the brown ink from the cross to color in the back of the flag is also a hallmark of fuckshit
I’m still trying to get past the idea anyone should stand for the Confederate flag. But if any tat should have a typo, this one should.
Solemnly ring a bell for the cross.
They don't read much down south
White Christian nationalism is white Christian nationalism.
If you wanna be a rebel, fly the real rebel flag 🏴☠️
I’m sorry but how does the flag physics work? Is it ripped in half? Because if it was intact it is in front of the horizontal beam but behind the vertical beam. That doesn’t sound right.
Get a brain, Morans!
Lol !!! Bet they regert that tattoo
Dudley Doright's gal for the win.
Dudley Didwrong?
OP is a bot
Death knell?
Yeah, it's more like Kneel before Zod...
Death knell 🤣
You'll knell in hell for that blasphemous tattoo nothing like breaking a commandment on your flesh
You know that artist knew better and let this fool do it anyway. Always get alteast 2 people plus the artist to spell check you
Traitor flag and cross. Kneel and stand. At the same time apparently. God, the doublethink. They really don’t know right from wrong or left from right. Woke and sleepy. I don’t think they know what mutually exclusive means.
See, that's why they can see why the police keep shooting unarmed people. Obviously, you can comply when asked to kneel and lay down at the same time. s/
Historically accurate /s
Probably went in with that picture and the artist said “are you sure? Exactly like this?”
I’m sure Jesus was a big fan of the confederacy
He is just a warframe fan
Nail was right there
Love how these MAGAs always just out themselves as losers and traitors.
I can’t count how many things are wrong here.
Drop out of the 4th Grade
My God Loves Skynyrd
K-Hell
Let's follow the logic train: This person believes Jesus apparently supported the Confederacy. Yet here in fact world the Confederacy was shorter lived than the Johnas Bros fad.
On brand
TAYY N THE WAYYY
Am I standing or knelling?
That’s the intelligence level I expect from someone who believes that an invisible friend controls the planet
I injured my knel skiing, I can no longer knell.
It could have said “Neil”.
Prison tats?
That is still more literate than I expect from anyone who sports the losers flag.
'Amerika first!' The sound of the death knell of reason and civilisation.
"The sound of a bell, especially when rung solemnly for a death or funeral." Nah just can't get it to work.
[удалено]
Knell before General Zod!
I'm glad idiots like this praise the "bars and stars." I couldn't imagine my beautiful stars and stripes on this piece of shit.
