I'm doubt the church is real, because I got no reports of Trump instantly burning to ash the moment he set foot in it.

The church is definitely real. God on the other hand...

So you want god to do the work, that you're supposed to do? Do we live in a democracy or a theocracy?

Did you reply to the wrong person? Your response to my comment implying that God doesn't exist makes no sense.

[–] wieson@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

It's meant for both of these statements. Do we expect god to turn trump into ash or is it our job to build a good society?

"God helps those who help themselves"

"God works through us"

"God chooses imperfect vessels."

Sorry officer it wasn't me who threw gasoline on Trump and lit him on fire. God just works in mysterious ways, ya know?

"God gave me a high powered sniper crossbow for a reason, officer. I just made sure His Will was done by executing 5 obviously criminal SCOTUS "justices."

First quote is unbiblical

The implication of GP is that it's our job to turn Trump to ash (and I think that's the intended interpretation).

If the USA is a country that is a democracy, can be answered only by a tentative yes for now. There are too many things wrong with the voting system and disenfranchisement and systemic failures around court appointments for a definitive yes.

Apart from that, we live in a world where gods don't exist, but not everyone agrees on that.
