bennett Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 It means you're God's chosen people, thus, The People. I'm a convinced atheist, so I find all of this shit hilarious. Nonetheless, it's true - Protestantism has a big stick up its arse about being the successors of the Covenant between God and the Jews. I'm doing some serious violence to the theology here, but this should help simplify matters.... You've seen Raiders of the Lost Ark? The Ark is the vessel of the pact between God and the Jewish people, containing the proof of their Chosen status. Chosen of God, privileged People. In Christian dogma, the Jews betrayed God by denying Jesus. And so, Christians are now the Chosen People - when the Reformation happened, it was the Protestants who got the big stick up the arse about inheriting the Jewish people's chosen status. This is why the Americans felt they had a "manifest destiny" to conquer the entirety of what is now the USA, amongst other weird side-effects. Skip two thousand years of ludicrous religious war and genocide, and you've got fifty thousand fuds shouting "We Are The People". I doubt they're aware of the theological background, since they're 95% bawbags and morons. Nonetheless, they're declaring that they "are the people" because the rest of us are not "The People". Let's note that there are a large bunch of people who just happen to live in close relation who really, really are not "The People". Those folk tend to be Catholic, in an amazingly unlucky coincidence that just happens to coincide with three hundred years of joyful triumphalism. It's an expression of dingbat religious supremacy. If you have a reason to doubt this that goes beyond "All you Celtic supporters are offended by everything" or some similar cant, knock yourselves out, or post one of those "You Seem Upset" Gifs. Thats f**king excellent mate, a dreary sunday morning and the perfect pick me up :lol: I love how we can make the most innocent of words sectarian and bigoted just because we're Rangers fans, we truly are the people -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair you have to be careful what you say. I came in late last night and posted a reply to the St Johnstone supporters question...re read it and decided it was best deleted and simply PMed the guy instead. Surely you know this more than the next man. It will all become very clear over the next few weeks. I am sure you wont be disappointed 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not so much the turning of a blind eye thats the biggest problem within the new clubs support . The biggest problem is the defending of such bigotry as per bennett and his ilk that causes so much disgust. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
