Lisa has always been skeptical. And skepticism is a healthy trait, no matter what hat you invoke. People fall for shit like angel bones in real life all the time, sometimes with dire consequences.

Rejecting Abrahamism is the first step.
Atheism can be a necessary step forward.
Embracing your people's ancestral deities comes next.

Got any examples?
Aside from cults and murder scams, which might not even be what you were actually talking about but are the only things I could think of.

Or general distrust of science and belief in crazy conspiracy theories, I suppose those might also be what you could be talking about. But I was under the impression that you meant specific localized events.

Or do you just mean publicity stunts that go wrong like the Aqua Teen Hunger Force bomb scandal?

How do you worship them and what do they offer you to believe in them? Are you worshipping solely because you want to be a contrarian totally not-Athiest that can shit on Christianity in a different flavor or do you actually believe some river god is directly responsible for a specific river running dry that season causing a bad harvest? Also keep in mind that the word "Pagan" is a blanket term for any polytheistic religion, so keep that in mind if you call yourself a word created by Christians.

You know exactly what he means, he's just another dime a dozen edgy contrarian who is too stupid to LARP about Gnosticism so he goes for "Paganism" instead because Odin and Thor is just like his capeshit movies or muh Rome badass aesthetic despite them having no actual faith in their deities at all bar the few priests permited to have passion in their veneration without being taboo.

Lisa is only a Buddhist when convenient.

I'm a Japanese guy who actually goes to the local Buddhist temple on Sundays. I don't really like Hollywood hippies tying to educate the public on what Buddhism is.

I've never once heard Lisa say "Dharma, Sangha or Siddhartha Gautama."

Only commercialized phony Christians would actually fall for that, since the idea of an angel skeleton being found on earth is pretty blasphemous in itself. The kind of Christians who haven't actually read or studied scripture and just regurgitate what others tell them. Flanders is supposed to be very well versed in the Bible but since his writers aren't his characterization is pretty inconsistent.

Wouldn't you still find Grigori and Nephilim bones in Christianity?
Anonymous No.150196459 [Report]
>>150196400
No. As far as we know no "Grigori" has perished and the Nephilim in terms of size is highly speculative or subjective. We know they were of great size but how that is in relation to the people of the time we don't actually know. So if there were bones it is possible that it wouldn't be giant by the modern sense and just abnormally tall for the period or "well developed" in stature. This is ignoring the fact wether there would be bones to find with the flood and if there was that many Nephilim to begin with.

Keep in mind, that they had to toe the line of seeing what they could get away with. While today Simpsons could be seen as very tame, back in 1990 it was cutting edge (same with Married with Children) in terms of pushing the boundaries of acceptable television programming. The idea of an 8 year old daughter not being a Buddhist wasn't explored until much later in Season 13 in 2001 when by then many barriers of tv censorship had been stripped down thanks in part to Simpsons, B&B, South Park ect.
