I should have paid more attention and been more vocal. Every time those people came to my door telling me how everything was better when “god chose kings and leaders”, I should have had facts to refute them. Hopefully I will be able to in the future.
I don’t think facts would have helped you. This isn’t something they reasoned their way into. You’re not going to reason them out.
I’m pretty sure that’s how they justified the Crusades.
Imagine believing that your all powerful god is so weak that he has to wait on you to start the end of the world. Pathetic.
People like this used to be institutionalized
MAGA is a pedofascist death cult.
Far right leaders want to see trump ignite armageddon, making him the antichrist.
If anyone worships the beast and its image and receives a mark on his forehead or on his hand, he will be tormented with fire and sulfur." Revelations 14:9-11
The mark on the forehead says “MAGA”
It’s kind of amazing, but these religious whackjobs may have a point. Current events are following the Armageddon myth almost perfectly:
Could American Evangelicals Spot the Antichrist? Here Are the Biblical Predictions:
What this shows me is that the fascist playbook has been the same for literally thousands of years. Descriptions of ancient despots apply equally to the modern-day ones.
That, and numerology is completely bankrupt. You can manipulate almost anything to fit a specific numeric scheme if you want to.
nice. hats on forehead and signs in the hand.
Here’s your hand sign.
US was justifying its genocides in the middle-east by “they are religious extremists.” How much of it was projection?
All
Religion, too, is a weapon. What manner of weapon is religion when it becomes the government?

If they are so desperate to die, they can do it by themselves and leave the rest of us out of it.
These dipshits always see everything in such stupid terms.
I imagine a future where such people are sentenced to be put into VR where they could live out their sick eschatological fantasies. That’s unless some kind of therapy doesn’t come online for such people, as I think they have a (probably as of yet named or recognized) mental disorder
Blind faith is a mental illness as far as I’m concerned.
Far-right religious leaders should all be used for chum
I wonder if that’s the key to Trump still being so popular among Protestant Christians after so much proof he’s as evil as it gets? That they see the only way out of the incredible mess the GOP (primarily) has made of the country and world is for the “End Times” to arrive, condemning everyone in the world except themselves and rapturing their gullible asses out of trouble.
They really believe that Jesus is going to beam their fat asses up to the mother ship. These people are scary.
Religion is the greatest threat to peace and human well-being.
Always has been.
Well if Iran has nothing to lose and the US thinks it’s the end times this is going to end so well…
so…. The Crusades 2: Electric Boogaloo
It is so unlike for far-right religious leaders to side with pedophiles, I am very surprised.
The world’s religions see no problem with sticking their dicks into children.
