What is Donald Trump's Greatest Failure? (Page 236) (Post deleted by theHating ) theHating: The irony of Qanon, decriers of pedophilia, starting their entire movement on a message board on the darknet known for posting chi-po. The leads... Where are those leads...?? theHating: If any single human being ever got convicted based on a lead provided by a Q source, it would be proof that god exists. Campion: Whether you supported the Capitol attack or not, Evangelicals, you are forever tied to the incident. Social media will not be kind to you or to the Jesus you recognize as Savior. Footage has come out from last week’s invasion in which Jesus' name is loudly invoked by a group of insurrectionists in the House chamber. Led by “QAnon Shaman,” the fur-and-horn-helmet-wearing gentleman whose image has become familiar to us all, the crowd joined in prayer to the “heavenly Father,” including the words, “thank you for filling this chamber with your white light of love…thank you for filling this chamber with patriots that love you and love Christ.” During the minute-long megaphone prayer, many in the crowd had hands raised or heads bowed. It ended, “in Christ’s holy name, Amen!” So, Evangelicals, the ball is in your court as never before. Will you individually and unequivocally denounce this obscenity? Many Christians worldwide believe that silence on the part of American Evangelicals is complicity, if not actual affiliation in the aggression against our democracy. This incident is not just dragging your name through the mud, but also that of all Christians, and more importantly, Jesus Christ. So please, say it loud and say it soon. This is a critical moment for Evangelicalism. ~~~ by Kathryn Shihadah (Edited by Campion) MJ59: Give em 12 months or so, at the moment they still believe dump won The five stages of grief are: denial. anger. bargaining. depression. acceptance. Half way twixt 1 and 2 kittybobo34: And now we hear that the Trump campaign fun provided 2.7 million for that rally and assault, making sure that the Proud boys and other hate groups were present.

What you just posted only confirms me in my heartfelt belief that organized religion is nothing more than a pile of horse shit. Thanks for helping me to reaffirm my implacable DISGUST at the idiots who call themselves “evangelicals.” Let’s see what their response now is to all the misery and chaos for which their idiot savior, Donald Trump, is responsible. ECHO (Edited by Echolegacy) Campion: ECHO --- while I understand your distrust, please keep in mind that not all Christians are like that, not even all evangelicals. But those who "have drunk the Kool Aid" of Trump populism seem to be hopeless cases. Hillary Clinton was correct when she used the term "basket of deplorables" (Post deleted by Account Closed ) (Post deleted by Account Closed ) Echolegacy: To Campion: Thank you for your reply. I admit that I have a problem with people who are overly religious because my opinion is that people who are AUTHENTIC Christians almost NEVER boast about it or draw attention to it. Yes, I HAVE known a handful of GENUINELY devout people but they are few and far between because I see organized religion as organized HYPOCRISY, given the disparity between what people SAY they believe and what they actually DO with those beliefs. Moreover, I think I am being generous with my appraisal. I DESPISE religious hypocrites because their brand of hypocrisy involves SPIRITUAL MATTERS and the damage such people do to religion and those who TRULY want to be a part of it is incalculable. I will leave you with a thought on religion from Johnathan Swift, who knew a thing or two about human hypocrisy and the damage it can do to others: "We have just enough religion to make us hate one another but not enough religion to make us love one another." I rest my case. ECHO (Edited by Echolegacy) Campion: ECHO --- as Christians we are called to be "Christlike" but in almost eight decades I have met only a few. And I can say in all honesty that the most Christlike person I have ever met is a Hindu. GeraldtheGnome: Yes, Trump had his hate group supporters, so did Biden, yet Trump supporters (the far right) only think Biden had hate group supporters, meanwhile Biden supporters (the far left, excluding others that voted for Biden) only think Trump had hate group supporters. Both of them had supporters that were racist, both of them are racist. Biden should always have both Knees off the ground from here on in. Away from that Echo has a point. Religion, race, gender and sexuality (as well the Climate) are unfortunately used in a way to drive Political messages that most are not for, even in sport and on National Days this sort of rot is happening. All of it is ruining society and the way of life of many. | Politics Chat Room 89 People Chatting Similar Conversations |
