The Pharisees /ˈfærəˌsiːz/ were at various times a political party, a social movement, and a school of thought in the Holy Land during the time of Second Temple Judaism. After the destruction of the Second Temple in 70 CE, Pharisaic beliefs became the foundational, liturgical and ritualistic basis for Rabbinic Judaism.

Only Christians believe in freemasons.

This isn't a conspiracy thread; it's a joke. No credibility in the claims, no proof any of them, just another attempt to try and make Christians look foolish, and the OP look smart. It's not working like you thought it would.
Nearly every video you watch concerning these things will be knee deep in Christianity..
The same people who champion those things on ats, will also be the same ones segueing for the legitimacy of the Bible..
Now 100% anecdotal evidence for sure, but not some left field assertion with no basis in reality..

A younger planet, likewise, is more a matter of interpreting evidence, not necessarily religious in basis.
The "gay agenda" - again, no. No one who pays any attention could believe there is no agenda.

This only works if you cherry pick your own evidence ignoring the rest that show clear slow change over time with no evidence of anything ever being suddenly created.

LOL. What agenda aside from wanting to be treated equally is going on? Homosexuality exists and is a reality of our world. You'd rather pretend it doesn't exist because your religion frowns on it? What do you gain by persecuting them? Christians love to play that victim card after torturing and executing homosexuals and atheists for thousands of years. Now there is some magical agenda because you can't do that crap anymore. GOD FORBID you have to acknowledge them as real and as equals, rather than lesser people.

Nope, that BS doesn't fly anymore. There is zero tolerance for any differing opinion from that crowd, and active recruiting in the schools. That has nothing to do with "equal treatment". Serial killers exist, too, and pedophiles, and cannibals, and torturers. Been around for ages, so are we to accept them, as well? Worst excuse, ever.

The only BS here is you comparing consenting adults in love getting married, to serial killers, cannibals, torturers and pedos!! YOUR anti gay agenda is clear, because they don't even come close to being comparable. Disgusting attitude you have.

Doesn't work the way you want it to work. You can't demand something for one group, based on a claim that they are born that way, then complain when someone points out others are as well, and could use the same arguments. There are many who believe some people are born a serial killer, or born a pedo, etc. That's the point. A claim that some action from a person must be accepted by all, because they are "born" to behave that way, doesn't fly.

I'm pretty sure they have atleast a pretty good theory for how flying reptiles evolved...
Maybe something that jumps, to something that glides.. to Full scale flight.. maybe..
I'm probubally wrong since we have no modern animals who jump, glide or fly to compare it to... oh never mind yes we do.. lol
Here are some scienticic papers laying it all out..

So not really a crazy mystery lol..
So then we shouldn't give the mentally disabled or autistic speacial treatment either huh??
I mean they were born that way , but so were serial killers and pedophiles, so screw them.....right???
Obviously there is exactly a gajillion miles between being born with your brain miswired leading to you being compulsively violent and you being born with a disability that doesn't hurt anyone else..
That breaks the fundamental debate rule of false equivalency..
Conservatism wouldn't even exist if people still studied logic and retoric..
Their entire philosophy is based on things any first year debate student knows don't count..
