I'm not religious, but I'm fairly certain that Trump is the least christian POTUS this country has ever seen.

And that’s basically it!
Trump is the antichrist.
You think that makes him more christian or less?
I agree, but stahp it.
you'll just feed his ego.
The 'logic' is that God has often used imperfect men to carry out his mission. Noah was a drunk, Lot slept with his daughters, and King David murdered a man so he could have the widow.
No matter what Donnie does, he is anointed because they say so
Yeah, that's why I gave up religion years ago.
Amen
Bless you, my child
Wonder how many times God tried to convince someone to do a thing and they just kinda… didn’t. Never read the Bible, but I don’t imagine many stories of unredeemed goat fornicators or greedy merchants end up sticking around.
I feel like that was one of the best parts of the Greeks. Their gods fucked up constantly, and everyone knew it. Fate is a flip of a coin, and so were the deities they worshiped
I think that's why a lot of the pagan religions had trickster gods like Loki.
They decided to cut the story of kid Jesus pushing people off roofs then bringing them back to life after people got mad.
If Jesus came back today maga would re-crucify him for being to woke.
And brown
He might already be here... And in an ICE holding cell
Jesus? Go back to mexico, that carpenter job is for Americans only!
Some brown guy talking about loving your neighbour and caring for the less fortunate? It's downright unamerican!
That’s why I don’t believe Jesus will come back, he must be afraid of to be crucified again.
I'm an atheist, but I would be willing to start believing if those assholes were cooked in hell for all eternity in return.
The worst people in America are running this country. There needs to be a reckoning for these shit bags.
Evangelicals have pretty much owned the military, at least since the 80s. It's particularly bad in the Air Farce.
We can't seriously put people who believe in this nonsense in charge of real world things.
A combat-unit commander told non-commissioned officers at a briefing Monday that the Iran war is part of God’s plan and that Pres. Donald Trump was “anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth,” according to a complaint by a non-commissioned officer. From Saturday morning through Monday night, more than 110 similar complaints about commanders in every branch of the military had been logged by the Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF). The complaints came from more than 40 different units spread across at least 30 military installations, the MRFF told me Monday night.
Trump, the man who literally embodies the 7 deadly sins, is the anointed of God - yea that totally checks out.
I'm starting to wonder if these Armageddon cultists see Trump as the Antichrist and see that as a good thing.
Anything to bring about the end.
“Many were increasingly of the opinion that they’d all made a big mistake in coming down from the trees in the first place. And some said that even the trees had been a bad move, and that no one should ever have left the oceans." - Douglas Adams
Turn back, we all made a horrible mistake.
In the beginning, the universe was created. This made a lot of people very angry, and is widely regarded as a "bad move."
I want every American to stop and listen.
If you thought that the US military was going to save us at the last minute from this orange pedophile and his pedophile posse, ask yourself this.
Why would military leaders actively break international law on the conduct of military actions, knowing they could be arrested and charged with not just war crimes, but crimes against humanity?
trick question. it doesn't matter what your answer is, they're still not coming to save us.
prepare yourselves.
All the “good ones” in military brass already resigned anyway. From the first reports of those actions last year, I’ve been saying it’s a mistake to leave things in the hands of sycophants alone, when instead people of decent conscience could be in there sabotaging. But alas, here we are.
I wonder what all those "retired" moral, knowledgeable, competent, experienced officers are doing? Are they just sipping margaritas on the veranda, not worried about the fate of the nation they carefully protected for decades? Or are they in touch with each other?
I wouldn't know, I haven't heard a thing. Nothing. Nada. It's almost like NOBODY is talking about that 800 pound gorilla in the room.
I always took it as, even if half the military quit, choosing their own conscience over this BS, there's still half the military left to follow orders even if it means killing children
Who Believe Trump Was Anointed by Jesus
Why? Did he run out of locusts or something?
You might be thinking of Jesus' abusive dad
Well to be fair, he was also his dad. And a ghost. And wine. And… crackers? Regardless, being both his dad and a ghost meant that any time Jesus jacked it, he was committing incestuous necrophilia. Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.
And there you have it folks... War is Peace... as decreed by Jebus himself
I’d say it will be fun to point and laugh at them when they are proven to be stupidly wrong, just like every other end of days bullshit, but sadly when it doesn’t work out like they are psychotically convinced it will, you know the whole easter bunny coming back and bringing the righteous armageddon thing, they will just throw the nuclear football and pretend it was all par for the course. We all get to die for their selfish and idiotic faith, neat, huh?
Remember, don’t bother hiding when you hear that the bombs are coming, nothing can save you from the white hot atonement, you’ll have just enough time to make a coffee, pet the cat, and maybe watch an episode of your favorite show. It won’t hurt.
You can imagine the Hollywood style promo. "First we had the Crusades for the Holy Land. Now Trump seeks to return the holy oil to the home of Christ. The U-S-A"
Religion is a mix of mass delusion and propaganda, period.
Oh and great look btw, killing the Ayatollah (who, like it or not, is both a political and religious leader to many in Iran and around the world), and then immediately depicting it as a holy war... Great plan, Magastan!
Definitely won't be used to further indoctrinate lost souls with nothing to lose into radical extremist groups all over the world!
So this is a war between theocracies.
Yes. A holy war. What better tool to indoctrinate the unwashed masses to fight for the billionaire class?
The world is far less safe because of actions and words like this.
I think we should expect a new wave of Islamist terrorism in the West as a response to the invasion of Iran and the killing of political and religious leaders, because their useful idiots also like to believe in holy wars.
And suddenly wars in the name of religion aren't Bad anymore. How the turntables.
Any chance on getting these officers named and a date for when they were promoted to their current positions?
And Rabbi Kaduri predicted Netanyahu would be the last Prime Minister and instructed him to fulfill the prophecy by defeating Persia/Iran to bring the Messiah: 'Behold, a people rises like a lioness, and lifts itself up like a lion; it does not lie down until it consumes prey, and drinks the blood of the slain.' Crazies running the world
I mean if it is I don't expect to ascend into heaven or anything but jeez I sorta feel I deserve a quick, clean, painless death. I mean common.
It trump was anointed by jesus, I feel validated in my past 35 years of being an athiest.
“The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with how Satan works: he will use all sorts of displays of power through signs and wonders that serve the lie.” – 2 Thessalonians 2:9
Thusly validating everything I've said about religion and the dumbass military. Fuck off with this "thank you for your service" validation.
