They need to lose their tax exempt status.
How did that whole revelations anti-christ thing go again? /S
It’s a stupid religion and belief system.
This is just another example of why.
It’s right there in the ten commandments, which I’d like to remind you has other legit bangers that still work in these modern times like “thou shalt not kill” :
Exodus 20:3-5 King James Version
3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
What’s funny is the decalogue is likely borrowed from what is commonly called the “ritual commandments” of Exodus 34, which are explicitly stated to be the 10 commandments in the Hebrew Bible (despite tradition calling the decalogue the 10 commandments) and includes such bangers as “sacrifice your firstborn son” and “in fact make lots of sacrifices to me”
- Law in christianity: “have no god besides me”
Well they all going to hell
Nah, they’ve already accepted Jesus Christ as their savior. That’s basically their get out of jail free card. It’s why a lot of them are horrible vile hateful people.
Some of them are Catholics and Catholics don’t subscribe to sola fide, well, it’s against their stated religion, I’ve met plenty who do
Funny how they don’t even see the whole golden calf, false idol aspect of this.
They didn’t read that far. Most of them who even start don’t even get to the “begat” sections, Genesis 5 if you start in the Old Testament and Matthew 1 if you start in the New Testament. So, the very first books of each testament.
the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) a growing charismatic movement led by a loose network of apostles and prophets who believe Christians are called to take over the government.
That’s wonderful. And the article only gets worse from there.
eh, scientology already did it better
Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. They may be more likely to go to Heaven yet at the same time likelier to make a Hell of earth.
This very kindness stings with intolerable insult. To be “cured” against one’s will and cured of states which we may not regard as disease is to be put on a level of those who have not yet reached the age of reason or those who never will; to be classed with infants, imbeciles, and domestic animals.

Damn that hits hard
I always thought a theocratic dictatorship sounded “charming”.
/s
I feel like you’re being double sarcastic with the /s being that big lol.
So it does doesn’t sound charming, eh?
It could be slightly worse, though:
"The Nuclei Armati Rivoluzionari (English: “Armed Revolutionary Nuclei”), abbreviated NAR, was an Italian neo-fascist armed militant organization active during the Years of Lead from 1977 to November 1981. "
At this point stuff like this isn’t oniony anymore, just trump supporters being trump supporters.
Yeah. It’s the kind of headline that I want to shock me, but it’s just becoming a dreadful background noise.
That’s how it works.
The first day you go to work in a sewer the stench is overwhelming. By the sixth week you can eat lunch next to your work station.
Remember when Trump had daily Covid announcements or when he was still on Twitter? Pretty much everything he did or said was so absurd that cracking jokes about it became a serious challenge. How do you come up with a fictional scenario that is more over the top than actual reality.
The only part that is oniony is that it makes me cry
Irony died circa 2016.
E’s not the messiah! E’s a very naughty boy!
Couldn’t help but think of the Ebeneezer Goode song https://youtu.be/7b2T8K2D-ps
It doesn’t matter how awful he is. They only see that he’s a great tool for creating a white evangelical theocracy. They’d act this way for Harvey Weinstein, Jeffrey Dahmer, or (insert awful person here).
Well I mean, as far as idols go, he’s about as false as they come.
He’s also an orangery gold color and he loves gold.
Come on if there is a god when will they start the smiting?
Would be nice, they already made the graven image
Hahaha. Flip flops lol
I’ve seen this several times and never noticed. Holy shit why‽
I’d smash.
Mooby!
Don’t they remember what is said in the Ten Commandments? “I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall have no other gods before Me."
Of course if they are the megachurch type of Christians, their only real god is money.
Oh that’s an easy dodge. A lot of these people think Trump is either a prophet of the Lord, a devout agent (think David or Solomon), or Jesus Christ Himself.
Let’s go to the part where he gives away everything to those less fortunate please.
There’s no easier lie for a politician than piety.
The guy is famous for raping a pornstar while married. It would certainly be easy to not do such a thing and then tell people you’re pious. But the guy is practically screaming at his followers that he’s satan himself and they still want to believe the lie…
Did he grab the pastor by the cooch?
“We are the last bit of a republic, of the free world,”
Worlds a big place, lady.
