Jesus has been pretty silent since that whole “death” thing. Like every other human.

Like every other human.
Why is only every other dead human silent? What about the other half?
Not every human is silent after death. What about that time grave robbers stole Rasputin's body and heard it scream while they burned it?
They must have been Sam & Dean, otherwise why burn it? 😂
Okay, I laughed incredibly hard at this comment 😂
Built up gasses lead to flatulence.
If those zealots could read they’d be very upset…
I saw one the other day: "I met Jesus in prison". Damn, what did he do?
He was getting deported for being an immigrant.
Well if the son of god had filed all the right paperwork and gone through the proper channels then he wouldn't be getting deported.
Reminds me of the clip I saw yesterday or day before where MAGATs actually said that they would welcome Jesus’ in US as long as he came legally.
Edit: found it https://youtube.com/shorts/0eBnr2sFyoI
Holy shit. Really?!? Someone who is a supposed Christian is like, "Trump is righter than Jesus." The Onion was right these people are beyond parody.
Called them once when I was very bored. The person on the other side, refused to accept any bit of evidence. I asked him about queer youth suicide rates, his response "part of gods plan" or some kind of shit like that.
Like fuck off with that.
If Jesus is to be believed like the man he was. No way he would give two shits about you changing genders. "Oh you want to change genders my child? Will you hurt anyone in the process?"
"No"
"Then go forth, son or daughter and bring light to the world"
MAGA- what a woke ass lib Jesus was.
Doubtful.
His culture was not kind to anything other than the approved gender norms.
I don't think Jesus ever personally weighs in on divorce. Or even war. But we know he hated wealth.
"It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than it is for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven." - Matthew 19:24
What?
"What God has joined together, let not man separate" Matthew 19:6 and Mark 10:9) definitely refers to marriage and is the main reason behind the catholic/Protestant schism.
War is less explicit but there’s definitely a bunch of passages about non violence (e.g., the mountain speech).
Mathew 10: 34 "Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace, but a sword. 35 For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. 36 And a person's enemies will be those of his own household.
I mean it’s a death cult. Basically he has to separate and isolate his followers or else they’d start to catch on that he was taking advantage of them.
I think he rather said that with a cheesy car salesmen grin and a hand out.
“You have a problem. But I’ve got a solution… gimme yo money and just don’t be rich!”
Obviously, blindly support MAGA without a spark of understanding of irony.
so much of the imperial interior is just miles and miles of deserted, fossil fuel industry scarred land and nothing but these imperial cult billboards and the occasional dead walmart town
I think there is something about Jesus beating people like you with a whip until they left the church, is that what you're talking about?
Out of curiosity, is this image from Missouri? I swear I've seen that exact billboard ad on both I-70 and I-55.
Matthew 5:6 for context
"Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled."
Correct me if wrong but it has no relevance on the billboard which is hilarious.
I hunger for righteousness. Fill me up, daddy.
They are being honest about preying on vulnerable people via religion, it seems.
"Who you gonna call?!"
Is Jesus answering the phone?
I saw one from the same org that was openly supporting creationism and had the Ascent of Man crossed out, so I doubt you'll get anywhere with them if you do call.
Hmm. Is this like playing rock paper scissors with Jesus? I think Jesus will go with divorce, the opposite of which is wealth. Chose wealth!
Yes
Jesus says yes
