Why do Christians hate monger on Satanists or the occult when they know little to nothing about it and it's reality?

I don't see that, I see compassion, but they do challenge the occult as "bad", unhealthy, and want to "save" people from it. Some Christians/people are too "head strong", pushy, opinionated and lack love, which is a sign... they have problems themselves. Christ loved people, and especially the most rejected and down. If anyone responded the heart of broken women, it was Christ.

My impression of occult, based upon what little I've learned of it, is about re-gaining a sense of power and control... which means they lacked it at some point. It's wounds... wounds control until resolved.

Babies don't come out loving occult stuff, it's learned. Give a baby love (good vibrations) and they like it. Give a baby bad vibrations, they will respond in fear. So I don't shame people for their wounds. But propagating those wounds, is a concern.

I've come to see things more as "vibrations" and frequency... resonance. it's my current perception. Occult to me is likely going to be a bad vibration based upon self. I look at physics and religion and such and combine them. More challenging to me these days to understand why people want disconnect from God/Christ for so much can be learned now and easily, but it's the nature of separation and the adversary to separate creation from God... love... vibration... energy. But as well I do get it... they have to work through their stuff, we have "time" to do that, opportunites are presented, and there are barriers to accepting they have to traverse.

I'm in a different place than I was 30yrs ago in perspective.

Because no one taught them how to be real christians and what it means. People say they are "real christians" but have no idea because that's what they were taught. I am a moddle eastern Orthodox Christian and o have friends that are homosexual, none believers, muslims and i mean FRIENDS like this🤞. Some relatives told me to stay away from these people, i hit them with some bible facts, and my fact is ! Love each other 🤷‍♂️ . None of them ever made me feel angry or that i am an outsider, that's why i keep them close to me.

Good man!

Your question actually accidently answers the question.

They don't know, anything or much about it.

So now it's scary, and easy to begin imagining scary evil things that is being performed.

It's like being afraid of the dark. When it isn't clear what we see, we begin seeing things and imagining things

[Agape93]

Yeap. It's just so asinine. They're so bent on misconceptions that they don't even ask, and the rare few who do, usually ignore it in favor of their own preconceptions.

[FreyaRed]

Because like every cult they need a virtual enemy. Atheists, satanists, witches and heretics fit perfectly in this role.

[CAPTAIN-OBVIOUS]

A true Christian never would hate monger. It says in the Bible to love your enemy.

[Agape93]

I rarely see them these days. They need to out breed the fake ones lol

[CAPTAIN-OBVIOUS]

A small minority of negative people will outshine the majority of good people. Negativity produces more of a spotlight because people focus more on negatives than positives. You could have a very handsome face and then get upset over one tiny zit for example. The good Christians to bad ones are like 100 good ones for every 1 bad one.

The first thing I want to know is what are you defining as "hate mongering", then where and how you see it in practice.

And perhaps the most important question of all, what are these beliefs really about then?

[Agape93]

Saying everything wrong or that they dislike is demonic, satanic or based in the occult. I see it now and then on here and god damn frequently offline.

Rock music? Satanic. Pokémon? Satanic. My religion? Satanic. Politics? Occult cabal or Satanic. Video games? Satanic. Etc etc.

[BCRanger10]

Okay. And the beliefs themselves. What are they actually about? What about them do Christians not understand?

As for the examples you provided? Believe it or not, for most of these, and presumably many others, you and I would likely ask the same question. The truth of the matter is that because for a lot of the Christians you likely have in mind, their faith is more about feeling than anything else. Such should be expected when they have no tradition or governing body to offer a more informed take on a given topic.

[Agape93]

When it comes to occult or Satanism, most of them know Jack shit about it.

Exactly. It's mostly baptists, pentecostal and evangelicals. It's annoying as shit. Much as I don't usually get on with catholics, at least y'all are consistent and try to understand things

[BCRanger10]

"When it comes to occult or Satanism, most of them know Jack shit about it." And that's what I'm asking you to clarify.

I appreciate the... I guess we could call them "props", for lack of a better term. I myself have dealt with such personalities; some users here (who shall remain unidentified), and even members of my own extended family. And yes, it is quite annoying.

With that said however, simply because not everything is Satanic doesn't mean that nothing is at all. I for one am simply more selective about what should be identified as such, let alone publicly. And there are two reasons for this. First, if one runs around calling everything "Satanic", the seriousness of the charge can be easily lost. And second, there's also to consider that there are greater and lesser degrees of both good and evil, and that there are things that are morally ambiguous and therefore subject to prudence.

[Zbrody1997]

Because they assume all religions outside their own are satanic in nature and have to do with the devil when in reality there are many religions, including satanisim, that is more moral than their own.

[Caramelpie]

I don’t know but I am against all of these three at once because all of them make no sense to me. lol

[Anpu23]

Fear, it's that fear of the unknown.
