Al Green, the one guy you can always count on to bring the fire.

You can use religion to advocate for anything heinous. God is dead.

Religion breeds evil

Be an Al Greene! Be a Booker! Be a Chaney! Be a Cassie Hutchinson! Stand up!

My abnormal psych prof in college cautioned us to remember that great evils have been committed in the name of God. That was decades ago and I still think about that class all the time.

They interpret the Bible the way they want it. I shoot back with Leviticus 19-4 and 19-11, and say "He who is without sin, throw the first stone".

From the moment gods were invented, evil men and women have blamed their hateful, evil, greedy, self-serving, vicious acts on one god or another. Whenever I hear anyone use a god to justify their actions, I mark that person for a fraud, a con artist and a danger to everyone everywhere.

They believe they can do whatever they want if they act in the name of god.
God has much to answer for.

A. they have no shame, it has been replaced by Greed, B. their God is some fictional cruel nutjob that evangelists push, C. you obtain any form of acknowledgment from these sorts of people that they have done, or are doing, something wrong.

If you believe God created the universe and everything in it, then trans people are a part of the creation and have a right to exist

It's idiot to separate one human from another based on the Republicans artificial criteria

Man has done more atrocities, to each other, in the name of GOD than for any other reason, ever.

It's insane when you look at the reality of it.

Just sad.

Bravo AlGreen! 👏🙌👊

worldoffoo.bsky.social•17 hours ago

Nailed it. Separation of church and state anyway, how god feels has nothing to do with the law.

greginma.bsky.social•15 hours ago

Re. Green is correct with one exception, there is no god.

ladyoutside.bsky.social•13 hours ago

Hoping some of his own people hear the message.

Preach Rep Green! There is no better way to tell them that they’re just a bunch of racist, xenophobic, bigots!

thefelics.bsky.social•18 hours ago

Must missed that in the Bible but heres me but Angels do not have a gender.

nancyfarmer.bsky.social•16 hours ago

Exactly. So glad Rep Al Green pushed back on the hypocrites using the Bible to justify their hideous actions!

Here in Texas, we NEED A LOT MORE AL GREENS!!! Love this man!

laurelmae.bsky.social•16 hours ago

Can we just stick to ethics without bringing God into it?! Right and wrong based on human decency and virtues?

erincfc.bsky.social•11 hours ago

I'm still so angry that every dem representative at the SOTU didn't walk out when they "escorted" him out. Grow a pair, dems and stand up for each other! 🤬

We need more of this righteous indication from the Democratic leadership.

Now this representative Al Green is a true American patriot!

Ultra MAGA REPUBLICANS think they can speak for God

Just waiting for Satan to thank them when they end up in Hell.

I haven’t been to church in about 35 years since high school when I had to, and I got a much better chance at “heaven” than any of those magats

This guys awesome, sticking up these evangelical freaks ass

smskp.bsky.social•16 hours ago

Born in 1950, raised in an age when the church and police, said the according to god a man could beat his wife and kids with impunity. My siblings and I bore the scars. I'm an atheist.

montealto.bsky.social•10 hours ago

I really admire Rep Green and appreciate him more each time he takes a stand like this.

We are one race ... #TheHumanRace

coriopsis.bsky.social•8 hours ago

The republicans attempt to
divide us into colors is ignorance and stupidity. No genetic evidence of different races
