Christian nationalism
MAGA Christian nationalism is a death cult.
Are we forgetting we have a literal pedophile as the president?
How about we get that out?
You know what else is a death cult that brutalizes everyone? ICE.
But his a good Christian paedophile
The Epstein party continues to be concerned about women and children.
Sharia is already prohibited... by the same first amendment which republicans ignore when they advocate for a theocracy...
Basically all of those bullet points listed are things republican "christians" do. They only have a problem with it when it's brown people doing it.
Lest you think I'm advocating for sharia law, I'm not. I'm simply pointing out that "christian law" would be effectively the same thing, and they're both equally prohibited by the constitution.
Sharia is already prohibited…
The various ideological tenants of the law aren't prohibited. If a county wants to declare itself "dry" and refuse to issue alcohol sales permits, for instance, there's no real state or federal guarantee against it. The fact that the people passing the law are doing so in the name of an Islamic faith rather than a Christian faith or a secular commitment to sobriety doesn't normally play into the rule's legality.
Lest you think I’m advocating for sharia law, I’m not.
I don't think people writing or voting on this legislation really know anything about Islamic religious teachings or legal codes.
If someone in a city council tried to cap the interest rate local creditors could charge, based on their opposition to the concept of usury, I doubt a lay Texan would key in on this being an aspect of Islamic fundamentalism unless some AM Talk Radio host or Joe Rogan affiliated podcaster mentioned it. If a local school district passed an ordinance protecting transgender athletes from discrimination, how many people might trace this back to The Prophet's positive attitudes toward mukhannathun or Ayatollah Khomeini and Al-Azhar's fatwas explicitly permitting reassignment surgery... unless a conservative pundit explicitly brought it up.
“christian law” would be effectively the same thing
There was a whole Thirty Years War suggesting the definition of "Christian Law" is not so well-defined. But, again, I think there's a very limited understanding of historical religious strictures across every faith. People tend to only know what they're told of, within the context of the speaker delivering the message.
What you'd consider a normal Evangelical religious edict might fly directly in the face of a traditional Catholic or Eastern Orthodox legal code.
Islamic Laws stray even farther, depending on which Islamic community you're coming from (Indonesians can hold very different social morals than Nigerians or Turks)
Why is this screenshot cropped, rotated and tinted?
Good thing we only mutilate boys' genitals.
It's still shocking to me how most Americans consider genital mutilation a normal thing. My European mind can't comprehend.
My mutilated american dick thanks you for your concern 😔
If it shocks you farther, it's just a little check box when you have a baby boy. Just a little bit of the paperwork before discharge. You don't even have to be there, and it's "free". Very strange, all things considered.
I watched my little boy like a hawk so they wouldn't "accidentally" whisk him away and mutilate him.
Free? Free?!! In a hospital, in the U S of A?!!! Ok now I'm really shocked.
It's not free. It costs hundreds of dollars. The user above may have had it covered by insurance, but that's a different thing. Entirely NOT free
Thank you for mentioning this. I don't even have that set of equipment, and it boggles my mind that this is normal and acceptable to anyone. Even using religion as a reason just seems ridiculous. Why the hell would you ever cause that much physical pain to a child for a cosmetic procedure?
"Oh, they're transing the kids!" Fucker, you asked your doctor to cut off part of your son's junk before he even developed the capacity to lift his own head. Shut the fuck up.
"No girl genital mutilation"
None for boys either, right?
Right?!
Interesting how they don’t mention it, right? Male circumcision is standard in Islam, it should be on the list. Anything to avoid addressing the genital mutilation elephant already in the room.
so Sharia law is the gop platform?
Always has been.
Repugs have been mirroring sharia for years, at least since the dump's first term
Wow, close call there, Texas, you're addessing a major risk there.
So, do Christofascist laws next.
I'd consider this a Christofascist law.
Good thing they don't read the Bible, because other than the pet dog thing, it's a tie
The middle 4 bullets are standard practice for our current epstein overlords and the top bullet is the Christo-fascist wet dream. At least we get dogs?
...Well, as long as you hide them from Kristi Noem...
Fundies are salivating to do the same thing
Seriously I was waiting for the punch line at the bottom, "... Just like Christian Nationalists"
Never seen an em-dash placed within a hyphenated word before ("death—cult")
It's written by ai
Do Americans actually get text messages like those? I thought it was a joke
The dem ones are at least somewhat sane

What's the point in creating a law that bans Sharia Law when the people who would allegedly institute mandatory observation of Sharia Law would just vote to repeal it and then institute it anyway?
Oh, right, Republicans are fucking idiots and this is scaremongering to drive them to the polls.
A lot of this is a tacit attempt to control Muslim municipal populations be restricting how they govern themselves locally.
So you can step in at the state (maybe federal, if Chip Roy gets his way) level and announce this mayor or judge or city council is illegitimate because the leadership isn't Christian.
Very specifically, this is in response to EPIC City, a master-planned community north of Dallas that's being bankrolled by a group of Muslim real estate developers. But you can see it echoing the disgust conservatives have for Minneapolis and Dearborn, Michigan, with their own large Muslim populations.
This just sounds like Texas on a regular day minus the dog thing.
is this a hidden vote to ban the Republican Party in Texas?
"NO religious freedom," so let's ban that religion? Every religion believes theirs is correct.
"Women brutalized" "Slavery allowed" "Child marriage & rape" These things are already illegal from our other laws.
"Girl genital mutilation" I think this one is already illegal, as well.
"No pet dogs allowed" First of all, wut? But second of all, I'd love to see some Texas politician try to pass a law that outlawed pet dogs. They'd probably get shot to death by the other politicians before they left the chamber.
"BAN SHARIA NOW!" BAN MARTIANS NOW! BAN FISH RIDING BICYCLES NOW! BAN ADULTS FROM SEEING WHY KIDS LOVE CINNAMON TOAST CRUNCH NOW! BAN LICKING UNTIL YOU GET TO THE TOOTSIE ROLL CENTER OF A TOOTSIE POP NOW!
BAN POLITICIANS WHO WASTE OUR TIME WITH MEANINGLESS LAWS AND CULTURE WARS NOW!
Sounds like a lot of Epstein projection
Look at these scary sounding words!
Vote for me!
On a side note: let's ban ALL religions, the world will thank you the world population will, well, the first generation will curse us, while every next generation will thank is for not being beholden anymore to badly written stonage fairytales
Weren't there files released that pointed to Melania actually being underage when she started her relationship with Trump?
Sorry, sorry, it was referred to as him riding the 'Lolita Express'. Fuck I hate these people.
