MODERATORS
At this point, it looks like the US should focus on making a list of people who attend church rather than drag shows. If we're looking at common themes
Funny, never once ever
People would freak the fuck out if he was holding a Koran instead but because it's a Bible it's socially acceptable... Silly stuff.
The one on the right is probably literate.
Reem Riyashi was indeed literate, though there are also Islamic states that suppress female literacy; when the church is the state everything gets worse.
IDK the art the pappal state produced was pretty rad. Also Rome was full of enough prostitutes at times under its reign that it gave Martin Luther a conniption fit and more or less resulted in his thesis, that's a lot of whores.
I'm not sure you can measure the prosperity of a society by their number of sex workers.
The papal states sponsored art from classical artists, but they also censored the artists and disfigured their statues. If the state had invested in the arts secularly I believe it would only have improved outcomes.
Well that's just like your opinion man. Prostitution economically sponsored by the church is fucking hilarious.
You got me there.
The Bible is alright by me as long as people practice it in the privacy of their own homes and they keep it away from my kid. I don't want them making 'em Christian or some other shit like that.
There's a Lot of incest in there.
Ohhh, is that related to Mastercard removing the incest games from Steam?
Nope. Bible joke. Don't be too salty about it.
Lot's wife was a little salty
she was a Lot salty
You licked her?
DON'T KINK SHAME ME!!!
I’m not salty, I’m just making jokes about incest porn.
We're on different pages in the same book, cumrade. Keep up the incest porn and I'll see you when I get to Song of Solomon
"Lot" and "salt" have double meanings.
Don't let that stuff touch the ground, hahah!
Nope. Too much genocide and susperstitious oppression. And if they follow biblical principles, they're child abusers.
You clearly do not live in Texas.
If you'd read a bible, you might disagree with that
Another Christian conservative on a shooting spree. May need to ban Christian conservative thought if we are to keep our guns.
"police said was found naked, holding a Bible and claiming to be Jesus."
I'm going to say mental illness was the major factor here.
"Sounds like a liberal to me." -MAGA Nazi
Yeah, they already mentioned he is religious.
I wonder if they will ever consider changing their store name
We all know that one book in the Bible where Jesus is strapped.
~~strapped~~ naked
Sir
So...."antifa", then? Or is this one of the drag queens?
