OT: American Politics

[thehabhater]

The writers have certainly come up with a great plot twist here..

The minute any church veers out of their lane to get involved in politics is the point at which they need to be forensically audited and taxed into oblivion.

And then they need to be investigated for the inevitable child abuse and sexual assault that they are for sure covering up.

A few things Im hoping to see in my lifetime….Citizens United overturned, A fully meritocratic Supreme Court 1-9 (left dominant would be more than acceptable), and *churches taxed at a level everyone else is, with the money being poured into social programs that take care of the kinds of people the church purports to.…and probably would, if they followed Jesus teachings, lol.


(which isn’t to say no churches do….but not to the degree those tax dollars could.)

Ah yes, the government is infinitely effective and efficient at doling out social services dollars. Just don't look at how they can't account for billions to trillions of dollars every year.

thank god churches are so trustworthy and never use your money to cover up pedophilia or anything.

Good thing those are the exception, and the expenses don't approach anything close to the 3.5 Trillion the DoD reported missing.

Christian churches and religious organizations raise up the practice of child grooming, sexual abuse and covering it all up to an almost industrial scale.

Always worth remembering that all the Qanon “save the children” shit and and the current Christofascist panic over “groomers” among trans people & LGBTQ in general is a giant attempt at misdirection from this.

 

[FlyGuy]

Also, I just have to emphasize how ironic the attacks on Christianity always are to me.

The fundamental basis and philosophy for western culture and progressivism is always attacked by the left. Gets me every time.

Oh yeah that's all churches and not at all pedophilia rings run by Epstein for the world's elite.

You definitely seem like a good Christian. Not filled with hate at all.

I was raised Christian but haven't practiced in a decade. But continue with the ad hominem.

Both of them are guilty of vile and despicable actions.

One thing I will say, at least Trump's only guilty of hanging out in one of the two.

The fundamental basis and philosophy for western culture and progressivism, reason and science, lies in greece and rome, long before christianity.

Though christianity did take over the western world for about a thousand years. We call those years the dark ages.

Thankfully, western culture managed to break free from that and bring us into the modern age.

don't you support a blank cheque for DoD anyways?
