There is no god,( a fact even more than a 3rd of americans would disagree with) but if the magic man would exist and after all this time decided to finally do some good, placing this clown at the head of the most destructive country on the planet would be a good move.

I think you meant "would not be" ?

Be assured that THIS Christian who actually read the Bible knows that all of these people will rot in Hell when they die. A lot of repenting will be required to side step that one truth.

Which god? Humans have made thousands of them

Given that only 25% of US citizens accept evolution theory as truth, I'm not surprised.

Do t forget the non zero amount of people who vehemently believe that the earth sun and moon are flat and the Sol system isn't heliocentric...

Bioshock Infinite is a documentary.

Seriously, American style Christianity is just as awful as DAESH.

Their god wants to destroy the US?

The more I see shit like this, the more I ask myself, why are we trying to save this?

  • Our legal system has been broken since it's creation.
  • Our representation has never represented us.
  • Peace is an imaginary thing, at best.
  • Calling any country our allies, is a joke.

So what is the point of all this shit?

The point is that America has managed to make a lot of guys richer than God by allowing them to exploit millions of people

Not sure what's worse. The article or the AI generated nightmare fuel picture.

As an atheist, I'm starting to believe this is the work of God too. A deeply vengeful God.

A third of Americans believe in a god that really, really hates them? Cool.

Why are Christians so anti-Christ's teachings?

[–] Waveform@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

Idk, but in this instance, we have Paul the Apostle to thank for Christians' submission to authority, no matter how vile it is:

Romans 13 1 Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God.

more2 Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves. 3 For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but for those who do wrong. Do you want to be free from fear of the one in authority? Then do what is right and you will be commended. 4 For the one in authority is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for rulers do not bear the sword for no reason. They are God’s servants, agents of wrath to bring punishment on the wrongdoer. 5 Therefore, it is necessary to submit to the authorities, not only because of possible punishment but also as a matter of conscience.

I don't care what the bible says

[–] pachrist@lemmy.world 6 points 4 days ago

In case you're talking to a Christian, most believe that everything is a part of God's plan, even the things they don't like.

It's honestly more interesting that this doesn't match up with the "do you identify as a Christian" stats. It would imply that there are a significant percentage of Christians who think that Trump is outside of God's plan. Maybe God didn't have Trump in his bingo card?

The Omnissiah's blessing is DEFINITELY not with that orange sack of fleshy weakness.

I want out of here. Trump has never been to church, and when asked, couldn't name his favorite Bible verse. He is and has always been a narcissistic fraud. I wish I could leave this country.

See everyone one at the protest on the 18th.
