Behold, your glorious President.

He hung out with the "sinners," and while that makes it sound like he was just being generous, maybe they were the only ones who were not taken in by those hypocrites and snakes.

John, I have struggled with this so much. I don’t have hate in my heart…until now. I can’t reconcile this in my heart and soul. This evil man is inflicting so much pain. God forgive me, but I hate him and all he stands for.
The harder part- how I feel about those who support him.

Politics aside - which has become a huge distraction - there’s the bigger issue of a spiritual warfare that the politics is preventing us from seeing. ..Because what is going on in not normal!

Trump and all MAGA are pure hypocrites and are not true Christians. Let's just get that straight!

I think that "whited sepulchre" is one of the most satisfying disses ever invented

And stiff necked vipers.

He wasn’t in real trouble until he fkd with the money though

I call them Republicans

This is why I left Catholicism. It wasn't a religion, it was a business that demanded women be subservient, it's adherents follow unquestioningly, even when children were molested. Christianity on a whole is a business and that is why they have such a lust for power.

Correction: he called them a generation of vipers.

Means a Son of a snake.

We have a similar term these days 😆

When asked Jesus also said that there was no commandment greater than love: love god and love thy neighbor.

I fail to see how attacking the least of us the impoverished and the defrauded, those who have no voice, is consistent with Christian ethics.

dbooher.bsky.social•14 days ago

Exactly! It’s not. It disgusts me how they misrepresent what Christianity is supposed to be: love. They are the very opposite of that. Instead, they use it as a weapon against all who Jesus said to care for and protect.

l1l1l1l.bsky.social•14 days ago

Especially if you believe that we are all made in the image of god. If that’s the case to hate others is to hate god, no?

He also said marriage was between a man and a woman and give to Ceasar what is Caesars

mdclifford.bsky.social•15 days ago

Yep, Jesus was a man with anger against hypocrisy. I don’t think his God side liked it, either.

fhuddlestun.bsky.social•15 days ago

The Christian nationalists are missing this point completely. They need to reread their Bible they claim to follow.

helxine.bsky.social•14 days ago

It doesn't matter how much you read it if you wilfully misinterpret it . . .

susanmangum.bsky.social•14 days ago

But the evangelicals opened the doors and invited them in. They have become the very people Jesus preached against! Now they have destroyed our nation that was founded on freedom of and from religion.

margueritevillier.bsky.social•15 days ago

Elon is not Jesus. Good grief.

apostatenerd.bsky.social•15 days ago

Sounds pretty hypocritical from a guy who spent his whole life using religion to manipulate people

yelladog.bsky.social•15 days ago

I wish someone would post a list of the things Jesus said, along with trumps statements relative to the subject at hand. I think it might sway a few people, if wielded at an opportune moment.

gberberian.bsky.social•15 days ago

Not quite what you asked, but maybe this works?

yelladog.bsky.social•15 days ago

a good start.

gardensofjoy.bsky.social•14 days ago

He also told them, "You are of your father the devil, his works you do."

Could never be more true of the clergy supporting Trump and his minions.

bigideakate.bsky.social•15 days ago

I made this point and had arguments with fundamentalist claiming I was wrong . Jesus never threw money changers out of the temple. They were angry. I blocked them, but there is some weird revisionist stuff going on out there.

cbarelythere.bsky.social•15 days ago

Unfortunately, we will always be wrong. I've stopped even trying because it's no longer about logic and fact but what they feel
