Honestly, airlines need to shut this nonsense down. It's their responsibility to maintain the environment, and that includes keeping idiots like this from disrupting everyone else.
People are legally required to follow flight attendants' instructions (at least in the US). So if a flight attendant tells them to stop and they don't, they are breaking the law.

They've always done that. As long as I've been alive and I'm not young.
They're always pointing to someone they think is trying to "oppress their religious beliefs" when 99% of the time, it's just someone who wants them to shut the fuck up. Or an edgy atheist teenager who thinks trolling them is some rebellious act.
Most of us could literally not give less of a fuck about anyone else's religion as long as they're not trying to force their morality onto everyone else. But because they think they need to convert and shame everyone they come into contact with, that's a problem for them.

It's hard to truly separate yourself completely from it, isn't it? I've been agnostic for years and years, but almost invariably I still find myself reading articles about the pope or the church whenever I come across one. I superficially justify it to myself by saying it's important to keep up on a belief system followed by over one billion people, but deep down I know it's more like keeping up on hometown news even though I moved away years ago.
I visited my brother in NYC a few years back and I made a point of briefly stopping into St. Patrick's cathedral because, well, you know why.

Interesting. I thought her "holy" book orders women to be silent and not teach.

1 Timothy 2:11-15
11 A woman should learn in quietness and full submission. 12 I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet. 13 For Adam was formed first, then Eve. 14 And Adam was not the one deceived; it was the woman who was deceived and became a sinner. 15 But women will be saved through childbearing—if they continue in faith, love and holiness with propriety.

Sure, if you ignore that there are flight attendants with the power to make you stop.
If you refuse the airline gonna end up with a lot of way to fuck over your life including restraing the unruly passenger, landing to deboard a disruptive passenger, and banning you from the airline
The crew is in charge when flying they will obviously first try many steps to descalate so they won't jump to the extreme measures. But the passenger will stop or they'll make them stop.

Staged persecution.
Which itself goes against Christ's very teachings.
Matthew 6:
“Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven.
2 “So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 3 But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, 4 so that your giving may be in secret. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.
5 “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 6 But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. 7 And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. 8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.
9 “This, then, is how you should pray:
“‘Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
10 your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
11 Give us today our daily bread.
12 And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
13 And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one.’14 For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15 But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.
16 “When you fast, do not look somber as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their faces to show others they are fasting. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 17 But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, 18 so that it will not be obvious to others that you are fasting, but only to your Father, who is unseen; and your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.
Performative faith is the work of false prophets and false disciples. One such bad fruit they make themselves known by.
P.S. And also how Jesus told the Twelve to not stick around trying to preach to people who aren't listening, but instead to leave them and shake the dust off their feet, in Matthew 10.

These people don't follow Jesus, they use him to make themselves feel important. No amount of bible quoting will change that because they don't actually care about the bible.

Nah, if you’re going to do that you have to full send it and play some Infant Annihilator or Dying Fetus. Just make sure you tell them the name of the band beforehand. I’m sure you’d get a great reaction.

I’d go with “Glory Hallelujah” by Frank Turner. Gets them going in the first few lines and then hits them with the chorus “There is no god, so clap your hands together! There is no god, no heaven and no hell. There is no god, we’re all in this together. There is no god, so ring that victory bell!”

If someone did this on a plane i was on, i would immediately yell at them to sit down and shut up- and that would likely be a situation where everyone would clap after (and also give me $100%)

u/minnesotanpride Jul 29 '26
If this ever happens on a flight of mine I'll be notifying flight attendants and request action to shut that down. I didn't chose to fly with a company to be preached at for a religion I dont follow.
If they act on it and have them stop or get kicked (if still at gate), then problem solved and I'll leave it at that. If they do nothing at all, I'll be recording the incident and blowing up their customer service and social media and demand a refund. I'll probably also threaten them to never fly with their company again if they dont do something about it for the future.
To do nothing is forcing customers to listen to the nonsense. I dont care if it's a priest, monk, rabbi, or just some random dude spouting off about Thor. I didn't buy a ticket to a sermon, I bought a ticket to fly to and from a place and expect to be treated with dignity and respect while doing so. This is harassment, religious harassment at that. Doing nothing about that is condoning the action which, honestly, means I'm probably going to sue the shit out of them after and get my bag.
Fucking try me, so done with these mouth breathers.

Forcing your beliefs onto others that may not have the same or have different beliefs than you gives you no right whatsoever to hold hostage in a place where you cannot escape from them. I didn’t spend amount of money on this plane ride to hear your bullshit you know there used to be etiquette and decorum for certain situations and the Trump administration really just threw all of those things out the fucking window and it really just allow people to be their naturally shitty human garbage fucking monster selves. Yet I would be the one getting banned if I went to the bathroom and shit in a cup and threw it at her.

u/Jim_Nills_Mustache Jul 29 '26
IMO these people should be treated the same as someone breaking the law or threatening anyone on the plane. Allowing this to go on without consequences or banning them from future flights just encourages the behavior.

Why would the attendants allow this, unless they were all also Christian and sympathetic? It's not a public space where you can exercise your free speech. It's private company property.

If a woman was doing this, I'd be real quick to stand up and say "Ma'am, while I respect your faith, perhaps you should respect your own faith and adhere to Timothy 2:12-13 - 'I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet.' and I want to be clear, I don't believe in that myself... but you do. So maybe you should read your own book in silence."

So captive audience = forced to sit in their seats? They can't get off the plane, lady. So you're forcing your religion down everyone's throats. And I'm speaking as a Christian who loves what the First Amendment actually stands for. What a nut!

100% if an attendant isn't shutting this down outright, one or two people asking them to step in will get this person in trouble.
For crying out loud they mandate headphones when you use your phone or watch moves, no way they're letting some loud mouth shouting over everything

by acknowledging that she understands that a plane full of passengers is a captive audience who cannot escape her, she is clearly showing that her intent is to will violate the civil rights of others by forcing them to endure her religious BS. Any American airline that allows this is complicit - and they are very deep pockets ripe for a lawsuit. If I were subjected to this I would sue both the airline and the person who is shoving their religion down my throat

Imagine people who have trauma from religion having to deal with this shit?! A plane is not a public space. It’s a private and paid for space and people need to respect others.
If this happened to me I would yell that my christian faith tells me she is a demon who needs to be cast out of the plane.
Or I’d stat preaching about the Satanic Temple.

Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 6 But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.7 And when you pray, do not keep on babblinglike pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words.
