I'm pretty sure there was a Twitter exchange between Owens and JP a few weeks back on this very subject.

I'm an atheist. If I start running around shouting Christ is king to Muslims and Jews just to stir up Christians to create religious friction would that be the proper use of such a phrase?

Or if you're a professed Muslim doing it online for social media clout and money

Some of you seem to be conflating the term “hurt” with feelings.

Shocked level: negative

*ETA: It would not surprise me if this was specifically targeted at her

“Christ our King” the only proper response is:

“Thy Kingdom come!”

they don't get upset about what others believe

Peterson is a smart fella, but sometimes when it comes to people like that, their pride gets in the way. It's just not logical for a God to exist, right? No matter how smart you are, your mind just can't comprehend anything being that vast, that powerful. They're "too smart" to believe in a fairly talented like that. Well, they better start believing in it, because they're in one.

I asked for examples of how Christ is King is being used to hurt someone or some people.

You provided some people.

From Andrew Tate's X post the "some people" are "satan devotees".

This is were we part ways.

I fully expect "satan devotees" to be offended by Christ is King.

All things Christ will always offend "satan devotees".

There is a movie with Jeffrey Hunter that plays every Easter. They’ve even made an animated version with Charles Dickens. King of Kings.

So even Hollywood recognizes this term. As did Handel in the Messiah.

Jesus Christ is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. His kingdom is not of this earth.

Bro he's a professed Muslim riling up the online mob for social media clout and money. Making emotionally-charged idiots even more emotional is hurting them.

He's worse than a money changer in the temple.

You giving any interpreted sincerity to his bullshite is not a good look.

But you've done it with Candace Owens before, so it is on brand.

Proclaiming "Christ is King" is literal blasphemy for a Muslim

But he has the best and most sincere intent in doing so, obviously.

Just say it's not a good example and post a better example of how Christ is King is being used as a pejorative to hurt someone or some people's feelings.

Yes, of someone using it insincerely for personal gain via negatively affecting plebs.

*ETA: I think your issue is trying to downplay all the emotional-pleb Christians who fall for this, because you think it makes Christianity as a whole look bad.

What’s funny is Andrew Tate most assuredly has a higher IQ than SFP.
