Isn't this idolatry? Your jealous god is gonna be, uh, jealous.
Religious people that vote republican are 100% hypocrites. Even you mom.
Especially your mom!
I'm glad my mom isn't some hyper-religious hypocrite. She's just your average low-information overly-proud bigot that couldn't be bothered to vote until a black man had the audacity to be president.
What about my mom???
If god were real he'd be real pissed right now
Too bad he isn't real.
Eh, I'm fine with the absence of a sky-wizard
I prefer it.
Problem here is that you seem to think (or assume others think) that religion is something other than a means to con dupes into giving up power and money. It’s pliable as fuck. It means nothing; it’s merely a means to an end.
There are a significant number of American Christians that have worked Trump into the religion.
Many prophesied his election victory, fueled insanity when this did not happen, culminating in... basically he is a kind of messiah, not literally Jesus, but doing his work, and he must do it before Jesus comes back.
If religion was real Trump would be the antichrist their bible warned them about.
As an ex Christian raised in a fundamentalist household who is now Atheist...
Fucking YUP!
He fits extremely well into the common rapture/antichrist narrative that I was raised in.
I grew up in that world too and he is exactly what those assholes used to rant and rave about while describing their Antichrist. Its funny how that turned out but I can't say I'm surprised, they are really shitty people.
You'd have to actually read the book to know that.
And people who actually read the Bible (and comprehend it), typically end up atheist.
Because it's fucking awful.
Yep. I'm not a perfect Christian, but I'm better than these freaks that are literally making Trump their idol. I don't know how anyone could read and believe the Bible, then go follow this adulterous, lying, dishonest, rapist piece of garbage felon...
"I died for this shit?"
turned water into whine
Jesus condoned slavery. And that was directly used by Southern slave owners to justify chattal slavery in the US.
He could have very easily said, "hey guys, you shouldn't own other humans as property," but no (assuming he even existed).
Instead, he instructed people on how to treat their slaves.
I think you're confusing Jesus with "Paul" who almost certainly wasn't Paul in "his" later letters but it's still generally true that the Bible is pro-slavery and heirarchy. Plus it's taken as the indirect word of Christ anyways so same difference, really.
If you have the specific passage about Jeebus saying slavery is fine feel free to share, I love getting more ammo to hit theists with.
Paula White-Cain, the NAR-affiliated Florida pastor who served as Trump’s lead spiritual adviser during his presidency, warned her followers that Christians who didn’t support Trump will “have to stand accountable before God one day.”
Those will be the ones ascending to heaven according to your bible, Paula, while you stand with the literal Anti-Christ you fucking grifter.
I think at this point we can stop calling it Christianity because it obviously has nothing to do with a messiah religious character from the middle east.
Come now, modern day American Christianity has nothing in common with the Roman Catholic faith that spawned the Reformation in 1519, where the pope and his cardinals openly sold penances and salvation for money.
Evangelicapitalism?
Supply-side Jesus.
Old man Trump meets all the criteria of the anti-Christ and they are lining up to worship him.
To be fair, hordes of people believing in the Anti-Christ is also supposed to be one of the signs
I'll never be able to take these people seriously again. What an absolute abomination of Christianity.
The weird fixation Trump has with the song YMCA is hilarious. It is literally one of the gayest songs ever recorded and he plays it for his cultists to sing and dance along everywhere he goes.
Ah yes, Christians and their political beliefs based on the teachings of Christ such as... checks article preventing men from playing in women's sports and making it illegal for "illegals" to vote. Which (of course) it already is.
Where does this obsession with "illegals" voting even come from? Have these people ever registered to vote or voted? You have to provide information and be on the voter rolls, it's not like you can just walk in and vote.
My sister in law is a Republican, but doesn't like Trump, but also buys in to a lot of what he says (her entire personality is "pro-life")
Yesterday, she's talking to my wife, who is one of those people that keeps her conversations on speaker when she's in the house:
SIL: did you guys ever vote early
W: yep, last several elections
SIL: I think I'm going to test them and vote on my mail-in, early, and in person on Tuesday
Me: you will go to jail for that...
They just gobble up whatever they hear in their echo chamber. Nevermind all the Republicans who have gone to jail for voter fraud
Also SIL: well the people who died two years ago that vote won't go to jail
W: yes but the people that voted in their place did...
I'm just so exhausted trying to understand remotely where they come from
Yeah and remember the part from the sermon on the mount where Jesus talks about grabbing women by the pussy? And how when you're the son of god they'll let you do it.
It's a voter suppression tactic, because when turnout is low Republicans tend to win elections.
I watched an undercover video of a church service once and they essentially replaced the 10 commandments with 10 Christian nationalism statements.
We need to launch a new fricking crusade against these antichrist worshippers
Got to admit, that's got to be the fattest, baldest, tiniest hooved bronzed calf I've ever seen.
Florida’s Bishop Kelvin Cobaris, the former president of the African American Council of Christian Clergy, said, “I want to tell every African American in here ‘Don’t be a afraid to lose your Black card…vote to defend religious freedom, vote to defend Israel!’” Pastor Sam Rodriguez, president of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference, said the enemy is “trying to kill our children in the classroom.”
Idiots.
Lmao they're probably the same ones killing the children in classrooms. It amazes me how delusional one can get
What a bunch of sociopaths.
What's weird is that Trump fits the definition of the anti Christ that I was given, when I was growing up as a born again Christian.
Not the antichrist you're the antichrist
Wow, he pulled one over on the Christians. What's he going to do for an encore, sell water to a man dying of thirst in the desert?
