They are so far from Jesus that it hurts my soul every time I hear them mention his name. They would hate his Holy Woke self and all he stands for. This White Male Fragility cult is outrageous. I hope I live long enought to see them all fall and end up in jail.

My elderly mom is in one of those churches. She & dad put my brother and me into one of those high schools. It was really awful. I told mom recently that one of their girls basketball coaches just got one of the girls on the team pregnant (because that’s what young women are for, right?🙄). Mom asked how old the girl was. When I told mom the girl was 16, she replied that she was probably asking for it.

Those people are evil.

OMG! Asking for it? Wow...we're not living in the 50's anymore.

Yeah. She’s almost 90, and she’s gotten worse in the last 5 years about the awful things she says. I can’t tell how much of it is just her brain deteriorating and how much is what she’s really thought all along.

The danger isn’t just that these men invoke God to justify power. It’s that they’re staging a full-blown rewrite of righteousness...where obedience to a political leader replaces moral discernment, and violence gets dressed up as virtue.

This isn’t faith. It’s theater with holy props.

The Pentagon isn’t a church. It’s becoming a stage for Handmaid’s Tale cosplay.

Jesus wept—and then filed a FOIA request.

They won't get away with it because the righteous anger is on the side of the people....& this group of fascists is about to feel it very soon. Those protests are just getting started.

Poltroon Pete the Podcaster is one of those MAGAts who thinks that Jesus was born in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, and his "Beatitudes" are the mission statement of the Ku Klux Klan and the National Rifle Association.

Doug Wilson also protects child rapers.

People have committed atrocities in the name of God for millennia, and the current crop is no different. Sometimes, that god is an idea rather than a supernatural being or beings, as in the case of Stalin, but the actors are all the same. They give themselves an excuse to hate, hurt, and kill their fellow human beings, because: Not my fault. Goddidit.

“Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth led a Christian prayer service in the Pentagon’s auditorium on Wednesday morning, during working hours, in which President Trump was praised as a divinely appointed leader.”

In a sane world, this would be a fireable offense. We really need to get religion all the way out of government. Can’t leave it at home where it belongs? You aren’t qualified to work here. Full stop.

Okay, thanks to today’s post, Hegseth is no longer for me just the laughable, clownish degenerate whose lack of integrity, intelligence, remorse, and compassion describes his core being; he’s also a frightening acolyte for a militant Christian makeover of the USA. This shit won’t stop with Hegseth, though. And it won’t stop unless we get our collective shit together and reclaim our country in court and on Election Day. I hope I live long enough to see an end to this militant Christian shit. The woods are burning.

In Rome BC/AD the Legion had a term for braggarts like him "Miles Gloriosus". TV Tropes gives great examples and lots of laughs. https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/MilesGloriosus

I suppose the current rankers might use "Warfighter" in a similar way.

OK, now I'm looking for an enormous vat of rubbing alcohol so I can disinfect myself. Since there's no way to un-see what I just read. Holy shit-on-a-biscuit.

This fool's clock is ticking...it's only a matter of time for this immature, arrogant, cartoon character is given the boot. He's just too stupid to breathe & always trying to take up all the oxygen in the room & as we all know....that's something the rest of the evil, scumwads in the fascist Orange regime will not tolerate.
