The bible even has something to say about it:
And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
Always loved that one.
What does the quoted passage mean and how does this painting relate?
“mote” as in a speck of dust
“beam” as in a huge plank of wood
Basically don’t point out small faults of your neighbor while ignoring huge faults of your own.
It’s a metaphor. No one has a beam in their eye. But it’s a metaphor that drops suddenly in the second half, because you can literally imagine a mote in someone’s eye.
Idk I can picture a jagged 2x4 giving me a Phineas Gage style impromptu lobotomy just fine.

Its a bibpe verse against hypocrisy, essentially correct yourself before correcting others. Take the log put of your eye before you take it out of someone else's. The painting shows a guy talking with a log his face.

I think it's a fantastic idea, I just don't think they'll like where it leads.
They’re SO deep down the hole with their big lie that they think everyone ELSE is lying to himself. Truly amazing.

I think they're safe, its too deep a thought for them to catch on
The best parts of theology are the parts that engage in introspection.
I’m just posting because I noticed that the W in “your whole life” is an upside down M. Goddamn typomania got me again!
Did you notice the S is upside-down?
Is it? It looks the same to me when I flip my phone. Perhaps it looks off because it's in a bolder or newer set, like the B and some other letters. Or maybe it's AI and every detail is random.

Did you notice that two of the four-letter “I”s are upside down as well?

I’ve had to put letters on signs like this before. You don’t get equal numbers of every letter, less-frequent letters have fewer. And if they get broken or stolen or blow away or something, that can seriously limit you. So you figure out ways to make up for it, like flipping M upside-down for W.

oh, religion. nothing embodies hypocrisy like you.
What if the lie is something totally not related to religion, like you aren't a total loser and your friends really do love you and you are smart and capable?".
If your friends are wonderful people and they love you, you have to trust their judgement!
Nah.

You think that's air you're breathing now?
The completely unrealized irony.
was going to say, if this was an abandoned church that'd make sense, (and go hard)

Heyyyy now, y'all be careful with that. The knife cuts both ways.
I mean. I’d argue that the group that more frequently questions its positions and beliefs based on new evidence without killing a significant portion of a country, is a safer source for interpreting the world than the group that killed 40% of Germany when one assumption, regarding the authority of the bishop of Rome, was in dispute for the first time in several centuries.
Of course. The ironic point is that plenty of people believed the old versions of what research showed dinosaurs were until they died. Some in denial of new research, like the presence of feathers.
Humans are dogmatic about more than just religion.
Imagine believing in creationism and using dinosaurs, 35 of which are wandering around my farm right now shitting out eggs we eat, as the metric of God's will.
Self aware church? Don't see that every day
All mental constructs are “lies” in that it’s our vision of the world imposed on reality. What is a chair? For us is a structure we can sit on, for the universe or the rest of species on this planet, it’s just a piece of thing, and even wood is a constructed concept
Preach just listened to “With Teeth.” Good for him!
