okay I seen people on TikTok fight about this it’s messing with my mind ofc I’m not gonna let people tell me what to do or change my life for the benefit of them but i genuinely wanna know?

I’m Christian and I’ve been doing ALT styles since the age of 14, kinda emo, trippy, edgy a whole mix, I’m still into that stuff but now let’s add scene and porcelain Dollie style, I’m Christian and follow my Bible in my religion tho I don’t agree with something’s and still confused on such the whole point of Christianity though is to have a relationship with God + Jesus.

My political views: ANTI TRUMP, ANTI MAGA, protect LGBTQ+, protect furries, protect everyone atp, BLM, we shouldn’t be controlled and told what to do with our bodies like hello? I also voted for all the Democrats recently.

“the Bible goes everything against what we stand for” im confused here? I genuinely like all the styles I switch it up a lot also love cosplaying there’s never really a truly style I have people call me “alt” for being different but I don’t understand, death threats for being Christian?

I have a lot of friends that are alt and yk etc and don’t seem to mind my beliefs, so what is this really about? Tell me I’m kinda lost here ngl

One side says you can and the other side says you can’t so honestly this is debatable

Tell me ur concerns

steadyorchid-71 OP

They fr follow religion more than God, I did have bad experiences with a few churches I got told I was going to hell for red lipstick, piercings and tattoos a girl sitting behind me told me my piercings weren’t christian idk if it was whispering but certainly allowed for me to hear it

wittyivory-85

I mean yeah its ok, but maybe they're more traditional (like the other religions and stuff?)

wittyivory-85

Im not a religious person but I have a pretty good deal of respect for the ideas that it not only holds but is able to spread. Along with some misgivings about particular ideas espoused that it spreads just as much.

But the core tenet of your belief, from what I’ve heard talking to people from Christian denominations, is to love thy neighbor. You got some fluff and some Old Testament fear in there but that’s the meat of it as far as I know.

What the hells a style got to do with any of that? And Tik Tok is not the hill you want to die on, no reason you should be changing around your life for a bunch of strangers if it isn’t hurting anyone. Do what you want.
