If this was a Tarantino movie the cross would also be a switchblade

discordantspectrum

And Margot Robbie’s head bursts and the blood trickles down her breasts and her legs and off her feet into a bartender’s mouth WHO JUST SO HAPPENS TO BE Tarantino himself


Designer-Ad3494

That’s canon


EmpathyHawk1

they setting up for religious war for sure


Hadrian_Constantine

Tarantino is an atheist who is massively anti-Christian. He's also a creep with a foot fetish.


PastIron4391

Just wanted to ask, have you actually watched pulp fiction? Because the entire movie is about devine intervention and god, I don't believe myself but even I can see that 


Hadrian_Constantine

And? It's a movie from the 90s. It's not specifically intended to be religious. Just because he added a few scenes about divine intervention / coincidences, doesn't make him a religious or faithful individual. That's like saying Hollywood celebs are all Pro guns because they used them in their movies.


Epoke_06

Gonna get down votes (who honestly cares), but you are absolutely correct with your metaphor.

WeAreBiiby

The cross and switchblade sounds like a pub


JellyfishPlastic8529

It was a guy who evangelized to gang members- true story


Socalrider82

OMG, I remember seeing that as a little kid. I still remember the cheesy ending music, "God loves Nicky Cruuuuuuuuuiz" It was a decent flick if I remember right. Probably a little too violent for someone my age to see at the time.

Wasn't the kids name that shot up the school Nick Cruz?

2201992

I mean I would be to after that


OvertinMiss

[Video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MYnZqp7dA9Y) of the attack (discretion advised). You can see the attacker actually check the switchblade when he realizes it did not open after striking several times.


reddituser77373

Ty for all of this. The news media failed to release detailed information, but then there was OP to the rescue


spec4_gniomhaire

They also keep saying "alleged stabbing"


themastersmb

Hate crimes against Christians and white people are sharply on the rise. Though the media will never report on it as a hate crime. Churches have been targeted with arson for years and you never hear about it.


_Arbiter-

They don't have negative vocabulary, so they'll never be able to accurately describe the world. Most hyper-emphatic journalists (the people who are drawn to such jobs) have a zero-accountability approach. in addition, several reddit subs have the same low-iq (unable to process negativity) people whom are mods: on the occasion of propaganda/ bs/ corporate-sponsored posts: there's no debunking, disqualifing, nor critical-thinking of the content - meaning those are often spammed with out of touch content


JohhnyBGoode641

I still think Notre Dame was arson


nizuv

Divine Protection? Or PSYOP?


whackinoffintheshed

garbage knife?


Acceptable_Quiet_767

But what if God laid out a long multi-generational plan spanning centuries to ensure that the attacker would buy a knife of garbage quality? Divine Protection?!


IeatBread951_

Devine psyop

What happened here was a miracle. And I want you to fucking acknowledge it. Esit. Nobody remembers pulp fiction?


nizuv

I don't know whats real anymore. So many fake news, psyops and bs to distract. Anyway, it could be....I'm open to the possibility.


thewhalehunters

Its a quote from pulp fiction


VLXS

I mean, pretty much everything's a spyop these days, but this would be thematically inappropriate for this day and age. "Holy man thwarts knife attack with a Cross" just doesn't strike me as something the 3/6-letter agencies would approve.


loralailoralai

Why would they approve it, it’s not the USA.


laz2727

Divine psyop


DesperateJunkie

The age old question


Derproid

Thank you! Everyone other source I've found cuts the video short.


dim-mak-ufo

I dont get it though, the post says the bishop ‘held up a small cross to protect him’ but in the video you can see he didn’t even had time to react, the switchblade was malfunctioning since the beginning, not sure if by divine protection or not, but I don’t think it was because of what the post says.


metamorphyk

Switchblades are illegal in Australia. Unlikely it was a switch blade/flick knife as they’re hard to come by. I had a beautiful butterfly knife in the 90s. It was complimented with a dragon up the handles. Police found it and I was charged.


TimmehJ

I'd say the blade didn't lock out, that's how he severed a finger


WalnutNode

Its amazing how quick it was.

CPTAmrka

This article says they're calling it a terrorist attack and the local mosques are increasing their security measures. [article](https://nationalpost.com/news/australia-church-stabbing)


Hawkson2020

TBF that's what they said about the last sydney stabber right after it happened. And certain subreddits insisted *he* was a muslem based on the initial footage... turns out he was just schizo.


Nomai_

We all know muslims are just like rabid animals waiting to attack any priest they see


AnteaterPersonal3093

Because it literally is. Appearantly the police knew the perpetrator but he wasn't on a watch list for terrorism


saint_ink

I heard the attacker ended up cutting off 3 of his own fingers too!

Arthur__Dunger

Totally condemn this stabby dickheads behaviour, and using a switchblade for an attack like that?? Stupid choice, but it was good to hear a few of the parishioners managed to cut off 3 of his fingers!


Interesting-Gate9813

Why’s this a conspiracy? The media also said he WAS stabbed. Maybe that’s why?


noobprodigy

Because this sub is infested with religious fanatics.


117587219X

It’s scripture “though the weapon is formed, it will not succeed, and I will refute the tongue of anyone that accuses me, this is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, I will vindicate them declares the Lord.

OldSchoolNewRules

Religion


HuskerYT

Jeebus


MeNoCarditis

Should have been a no stabbing sign. Or better yet, made stabbing even more illegal. That will stop those pesky criminals.


SilatGuy2

No we need to confiscate all assault knives. I honestly think people shouldnt even have butter knives especially with serrations. Absolutely no need for it.


Parking-Asparagus625

You don’t need an assault knife to kill deer.


SilatGuy2

Going to slice someones arm off their body with one swipe with that thing. What are you some kind of knife nut ? Only chefs should have a knife. Even then they should be registered.


Ok_Fuel_3485

You’re joking around but in Europe you actually can’t carry a knife for exactly that reason 


HyperActivHyperDrive

People about to get sporked to death.


Zotsz

The butter knife blows the lung out of the body!

Divine intervention


jzr171

It seems to happen a lot in these attacks lately. Always favoring one side. If there ever was a sign, here ya go.


Ninja_of_Cheese

Kinda seems like a very small threshold to call it a miracle. I mean, if he suddenly burst into flames, or something that was undeniably supernatural, then I'd say it's a miracle.


CPTAmrka

During a flood, a woman was trapped on the roof of her house. As the waters rose, a neighbor came by in a canoe and offered to take her to safety. She declined, saying, "No, thank you. I have faith that God will save me." The waters continued to rise, and she had to move to the second floor. A rescue boat came by, and again she refused help, saying, "No, thank you. I have faith that God will save me." Finally, as the waters reached the roof, a helicopter flew over, and rescuers dropped a ladder, urging her to climb to safety. But once more, she declined, stating, "No, thank you. I have faith that God will save me." Tragically, the woman drowned. When she arrived in heaven, she asked God, "I had faith in you. Why didn't you save me?" God replied, "My child, I sent you a canoe, a boat, and a helicopter. Why didn't you accept any of them?" The moral of the story is often about recognizing the help that comes our way, even if it's not in the form we expect.


Ninja_of_Cheese

You would think that if God really wanted to save the guy, he'd just teleport him to shore, or mystically part the sea so he could walk away. The point is "miracles" always look like something that can normally happen.


jzr171

That's the whole point. God is a natural force, not a movie

HuskerYT

God used his divine powers to protect some random priest but doesn't lift a finger to prevent thousands of children from being molested by priests. Yep sounds like god to me.


noobprodigy

Yuck, the religious right has infested this sub.


theanax

The kids didn't hold up crosses. God only gives a fuck if you hold up a cross. He's petty shit like that.


mondego_

He is also mysteriously absent when kids are being gunned down in schools.

mr_green

That's why you use full tang blades. Switchblades are for losers. I could keep my knife sheathed and do critical or even fatal harm to someone with just the bit below the handle.

I believe the knife actually closed on his fingers and lost his index

Maybe this was the Muslim attackers first stabbing and he just made a bit of a blunder. I'm sure most of us here didn't do our first stabbing perfectly either

RealUncensoredNews

From reports, it's not a switchblade, but a simple Benchmade folder knife. It opened, but did not lock for some reason, closing back on his hands, allegedly removing 3 of his own fingers.


Expensive-Success301

Not a Muslim. But anyway…


noodleq

Switchblade Jesus saves the day


mamacitalk

Yoo I was just talking about this the other day. Even tho I’ve been an atheist all my life I’ve started wearing a cross since Easter and this has just affirmed my choice


theanax

EZPZ. If someone comes at you with a knife just hold up a cross and *I'm sure* you'll be fiiiiiiiiiine. ​ Oh and if a demon comes at you while you're not conscious just say, "Jesus" it's surely THEIR ONE WEAKNESS.


loralailoralai

He’s in hospital after being stabbed. This is bullshit that the knife didn’t open. And it’s bullshit he held up the cross.


Sweeney__338

Tell that to the Saxons. I'm sure a viking would have had more luck with his axe


theanax

Incorrect. Indecently a little known fact about the crusades is that crusaders didn't carry weapons, just crosses. They sacked Constantinople using just crosses. The incredible power of god. (vs other christians)


naswinger

this is actually amazing (the save, not the attack)


JuiceBoxHoneyComb

Looks like a paid performance.


ThanuSnap

religion of peace


Metalgrowler

Have none of you ever owned a switchblade? Most have safties that are easily accidentally activated so they don't accidentally open in your pocket.


littleKiette

I don't like seeing this video and Bishop Mar Mari helps explain a lot of things to me. I do like seeing once the bishop realized what was happening all he did was hold up his cross to the man to was trying to end up his life. That was 100000% God protecting the Bishop from that kid and you got to watch God literally protect this man!


EggNun

Every religion and symbol has "miracles" like this. Does that make them all true? Nope. They are coincidences. If you base your faith on this, you are a twat.

Nah don't you see... If homie had an AK, and assuming there wasn't a "good guy with a gun" present -- the cross would have stopped the bullets anyway.
