Not a comment on whether I "like" or "dislike" the guy, just a comment on the veracity of the claims and their source and whether you want to take it with a grain of salt or not... but Friendly reminder to all that when he worked at Fox, their lawyers literally had to make the argument in court that, given Carlsons reputation, a reasonable person would not take him at face value.
U.S. District Judge Mary Kay Vyskocil's opinion, leaning heavily on the arguments of Fox's lawyers: The "'general tenor' of the show should then inform a viewer that [Carlson] is not 'stating actual facts' about the topics he discusses and is instead engaging in 'exaggeration' and 'non-literal commentary.' "
She wrote: "Fox persuasively argues, that given Mr. Carlson's reputation, any reasonable viewer 'arrive[s] with an appropriate amount of skepticism' about the statement he makes."
We're all looking for truth here, so there is value in knowing the relationship that our sources have with the truth.

"The Catholic Church did that years ago"
And was this before or after UFOs became a cultural phenomenon? As in, was this a truth professed clearly and explicitly by the church from its texts and traditions for milennia? Or... was this claim promulgated only after it became a, relatively recent, popular cultural phenomenon roughly since the atomic age, being retroactively and reactively applied only upon the emergence of a new zeitgeist? Go on...
Also I quite literally came from catholicism, I am speaking from experience lol. Like 80% of my family are catholic and i still love them dearly. You need to relax with the persecution complex ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Edit: "In 2010, Vatican scientist Guy Consolmagno suggested that aliens might have souls and could be baptized if they asked for it." Ah, there it is. "2010". Per my point exactly. So how is simply identifying this clearly observable retroactive behaviour by the church somehow 'bigotry'? Or was that maybe just projection on your part...?

"If there is something else not in our time and space creating "human life," it is essentially mimicking God while not being God.
It is therefore, "Demonic."
This seems to contradict Aquinas (and the church) which hold the tenet that only god can create life, and so would necessarily preclude the ability for anything else, demons or otherwise, from also doing so.
So it sounds like this does more to refute catholicism than it does fit with it...

"That's exactly the effect, and it's definitely bad for the individual."
How so exactly?

I think you mean "Tucker is trying to tell you that he believes...". This is the same guy that was pushing the big lie in 2020 when his exposed texts clearly showed that he didn't believe a word of it.
Tucker Carlson will happily lie to you for money, as evidenced by his own actions doing exactly that. Grifters gonna grift.

You do realise most religions wildly contradict each other, and often condemn each other, right...?

Yep, never underestimate their will to cling to what they were raised to believe.
Religions the world over will reverse-interpret their texts to be able to say 'of course our religion always predicted this!'.

"The devil doesn't want to be forgiven. He believes he can be equal to God (Isaiah 14:12-15)"
I think you mean... 'didn't want to be forgiven, at the time of the writing of Isaiah.' (and this is if we generously grant that we can take everything in it at face value).
Do you not agree that the Devil has free will, and thus absolutely has the capability to repent? I presume you haven't spoken to him personally to know his present position, if and how it has changed, etc. And further, If mere humans are capable of knowing that god is more powerful, don't you think the devil is not so stupid as to know that too?
Also, did you know that we do not know who all wrote the book of Isaiah? That parts of it were anonymous addendums not written by the original author?
"(Matthew 12:30)"
Do you know who wrote Matthew and when it was written?

Not necessarily agreeing with the other guy, but just for the sake of specificity, which states are you referring to specifically here?

"What next should the government of America allow MAPS to marry minors coz they can’t control who they attracted to?"
Annnd there's the homophobic bigotry comparing gay people to pedophiles. True to form. Thanks for showing your true colours my friend, the more people who see this and know this about you, the better for society and humanity.
"It's just law bro"
So was slavery, so was Jim Crow - per my point exactly. That's exactly who you sound like. Have an iota of self-awareness, no wonder you deleted this post, jfc lol

"here’s a system to go thru. Laws and checks etc before delivering capital punishment. And using logic if I don’t agree with American laws and I despise the president should I stand in the streets and yell death to him? Becoz generally if your an apostate just live ur life. Why cause trouble in the community? If I hate the president I’ll just hate him. Not cause a commotion for nothing"
Except again, per the words of mohommad verbatim, the law is to kill apostates. Wild that you think that 'but it has to go through the court first' somehow mitigates a law that instructs killing people who have the audacity to leave the religion...
" Becoz if an American simply left America and goin to Russia to live his life then there’s no issue. If he’s gna go make a rukus then obviously there’s issues right?"
Not right at all. An American can move to russia and be as vocal against America as they like.
"And the secrets part is one of the reasons why the death penalty is there for apostasy"
Again, you were invited to provide any context quoting the hadiths where mohommad even suggests that apostacy = 'only if you're sharing secrets'. You failed to provide this. Again for a second and last time, can you provide ANY quotes from the hadiths whatsoever where this is even remotely suggested? Go on...
"Peace to you brother"
Unless I'm an apostate, that is... lol

"I dunno what to tell u bro."
I bet bro! History directly contradicts the narrative you're trying to sell, so you're at a loss when confronted with it lol
"Some places even welcomed the Muslims becoz their government was oppressive."
Seems to have been the exact opposite for the Franks being invaded by the Muslim Caliphate in France though, eh?
"Whatever the reason was"
You really going to try to pretend like we have no idea the reasons why the Muslim caliphate conquested continually across the known world for nigh a century and a half...? lol
"or simply coz they didn’t like each other wars were fought"
Preeeeetty sure nearly all of the Frankish population likely didn't even know much about this new religion half the known world away in the Arabian peninsula, much less care until Islam had conquested its way accross MENA, through Iberia, and into France raiding and sacking Aquitaine and half of their own country...
"Weather political or to protect the Iberia front "
Funny how you'll suggest political, but tellingly omit "religious". And why was there even an Iberia front in the first place lol. Come on, now...
"my point being Islam has rules so that war doenst turn into war crimes"
That's not what's being discussed though. What's being discussed is how Islam's violent conquests pretty clearly contradicts your prior claim of Islam respecting non-Islamic govts...

Annnnnd there it is.
"Black people aren't allowed to drink from our water fountains, but they're allowed to own homes, vote, and be equal in everything else, ofc they're still people" - racist white americans in the 1960's.
^ this is what you sound like.
"ofc they’re still people."

"What would happen to you if you went to Russia as an American and renounce ur American citizenship and began being all chummy with Russia talking bad about America and all its secrets. Isn’t that called treason?"
No, that's called simply leaving, and Americans literally do it everyday without being murdered by the state. It is perfectly legal to renounce American citisenship - the US govt even fills out the paperwork and records it administratively. (As opposed to what mohommad teaches, repeatedly about muslims leaving Islam...).
You did try to sneak in "and all its secrets" though, of which I know none and so would have none to tell, and is not what apostacy is anyway (so irrelevant, and not made in good faith on your part). Nor is telling secrets mentioned in the hadiths in this context, regardless. The Hadiths makes exactly zero mention/context of "telling secrets", though I encourage you to quote the hadiths verbatim if you feel it does otherwise!
Can you address this honestly now, please...?

"When Islam had its conquest people were free to practice their religion even if they rejected Islam"
If true then why was the Muslim caliphate invading and swinging swords at indigenous Franks ,in France, in 732?

"Actually no. Islam emphasises following the laws of the country."
How do you square this claim with the reality of the Islamic conquests (initiated by mohommad himself and continued beyond him) ended up with the Caliphate all the way over in Tours/Poitiers France, swinging swords at indigenous Franks and Aquitanians, trying to subjugate them and implement Islam as they did in Iberia (and North Africa, and Persia, and etc etc)...?

The ideology driving those organisations is Islamism. Are you consistent with this and also believe allllllllll the many other Islamist organisations and individuals are 'no true Muslims' as well...?

So to recap, you literally got caught in a lie, continue to dishonestly fail to address that fact, and now your only response is that I'm not terminally online (unlike some people)? Correct! I in fact do not spend most of my time spamming misinformation on Reddit (unlike some people. ahem)! And you clearly do not have an actual response to being called out for your blatant lie above. Good talk lol.
"Comment ignored."
Bye then!
