the racists don't care, and they're all racists

According to my grandfather, the fact that he's supposedly anti-abortio makes him a "man of god."

There was actually an opening to an episode of American Gods that has that exact scenario. He literally walks across the Rio Grande and after he gets to shore a bunch of hilbillies with religious iconography alongside their confederate flags roll up in their lifted trucks and shoot him with a fully automatic weapon.

So what you are saying is that now is the time to invest in gold AR-15 necklaces?

I mean look what happened to MLK Jr...

The FBI would probably investigate him and then he'd be murdered by white supremacists.

Agreed.

If I was a Christian (I aint but just work with me here), I'd honestly believe Trump was being used by Satan to lead the Shepard's beloved sheep astray.

Modern fundamentalist American Christians would have been in the crowd shouting for barrabas to be released, make no mistake.

There's no question that he would be apprehended and faced with terrorism charges.

I wasn't raised with a religion (parents were both atheists), but when i was around 15-16 I got curious. I started attending the youth group at the local feel good church up the street and literally every single sermon was about how teenagers have urges, but we must resist them as sex before marriage was a terrible sin.

Well after a couple months of weekly don't have sex meetings the cops showed up to arrest the youth pastor for something like 27 counts of statutory rape. He had been sleeping with all the girls in the youth group ranging from 18 all the way down to the 13 year-olds.

The only reason he got caught was because two of the girls got into an argument about how they were his one true love, and one of them called the cops on the other one because she got called a bad name. That ended my very short experiment with religion, bunch of fucking hypocrites pretending they're better than other people while doing exactly what they tell others not to... at least the sex I was having was legal.

Modern satanists don't believe in Satan or Jesus

Jesus intended his movement to be for Jews, as a Jewish reformation of their own faith. Paul was the one that changed it and made it for gentiles.

Jesus seemingly believed himself to be a prophet. He titles himself "son of man" which God called the prophet Jeremiah, and he says "a prophet is not welcome in his hometown" when he went home and no one took him seriously. He was mislabeled, and only the gospel written over a hundred years after (John) made him out to be literally God. Nowhere in the first and oldest (Mark) does he ever make any claims of the sort.

Paul was likely a Roman plant (he was Herodian, and converted suspiciously quickly while simultaneously preaching contradictory messages compared to Jesus.) So his attempts to keep the movement alive were focused primarily on outsiders, since it was clear that the Jewish people weren't convinced and converting to "the way" in significant numbers.

Funny that, the people who are literally from the place where it happened don't consider it to be true but a metric fuck ton of people who got second or third hand accounts do. Hmmm... If that was anything but Christianity, Christians would be able to see the flaw in that a mile away.

I don't think so. The flock will migrate to a different church more in tune with what they want to believe.

Nope.

Had a couple of conversations with randoms about this. They know and don't care. I guess Jesus is "one of the good ones".

I misread that as Jaws for jesus and now i'm oddly disappointed
