trump = man of the people !!!

Seriously.  

The MAGAts voted for Trump because "fuck the elites!  We want a man of the people!"

And that man does exactly what any sane person saw he was going to do: turn over the keys of the country to literal oligarchs.

That wasn't a prayer or sermon, that was a political speech. But the biggest red flag to me was absolutely no mention of Christ. God is portrayed as this distant being and people are supposed to be leftist social activists in order to be 'good'. Those are the words of a false prophet that has no personal relationship with Christ. Unfortunately there are many American churches filled with those types. Lost people.

Entirely predictable "prayer" service with a woman bishop in the Episcopalian "church".

I realize that Johnny is trolling somewhat and looking to get his pathetic outrage fix from us, but just imagine typing this out and still being supremely confident that, "Yep, I'm on the right side of history."

That's the insanity we're dealing with.

Trump’s America apparently proves no one cares whether foreign interests are buying influence or policy outcomes with direct bribes to the president and his family. This is something I truly don’t understand is tolerable and not the lead story every day

When the majority of medical school graduates are female, I will never understand why any woman would seek primary healthcare from on old dude. Heck, I feel the same way myself. My last two internists have been younger females and I’ve been extremely happy with them. I’ve found they spend a lot more time listening and having a dialogue about my health so that any treatment is a collaboration between them and me.

All else being equal, I tend to gravitate toward female doctors vs. male.  I think women are better suited to being doctors.

Plus, it's fun to have a woman touch your pickle.

This is actually pertinent to my interest as last week I went to a female internist with the intention of "firing" my male PCP of 20+ years. The relationship had grown stale and his one-man show had ZERO automation. Plus I'd gotten annoyed when he started charging me for an office visit when I'd go in for my annual physical, which is paid for by insurance, by asking me some innocuous question about my BP/cholesterol meds, me saying "all good" and then him adding that code to the chart/bill.

At any rate, went to see a female doc last week on recommendation from friends and a few others. She was awesome.

When you're done w/ your banning, please tell me how these quotes from Jesus support this ridiculous fucking statement.  Also, please tell us how supporting Trump jibes with what Jesus said, you worthless, evil cunt. 

 

Luke 6:20-21
Then he looked up at his disciples and said: ‘Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God. Blessed are you who are hungry now, for you will be filled. Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh.’

Luke 4:16-19
When he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, he went to the synagogue on the sabbath day, as was his custom. He stood up to read, and the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was given to him. He unrolled the scroll and found the place where it was written: ‘The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to let the oppressed go free, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favour.’

Matthew 25:34-36
Then the king will say to those at his right hand, ‘Come, you that are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me.’

Mark 10:21-22
Jesus, looking at him, loved him and said, ‘You lack one thing; go, sell what you own, and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; then come, follow me.’ When he heard this, he was shocked and went away grieving, for he had many possessions.

Mark 12:41-44
He sat down opposite the treasury, and watched the crowd putting money into the treasury. Many rich people put in large sums.  A poor widow came and put in two small copper coins, which are worth a penny. Then he called his disciples and said to them, ‘Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put in more than all those who are contributing to the treasury. For all of them have contributed out of their abundance; but she out of her poverty has put in everything she had, all she had to live on.’

Luke 14:12-14
He said also to the one who had invited him, ‘When you give a luncheon or a dinner, do not invite your friends or your brothers or your relatives or rich neighbors, in case they may invite you in return, and you would be repaid. But when you give a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, and the blind. And you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you, for you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.’

Luke 16:19-25
There was a rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen and who feasted sumptuously every day. And at his gate lay a poor man named Lazarus, covered with sores, who longed to satisfy his hunger with what fell from the rich man’s table; even the dogs would come and lick his sores. The poor man died and was carried away by the angels to be with Abraham. The rich man also died and was buried.

Luke 11:39-42
Then the Lord said to him, ‘Now you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and of the dish, but inside you are full of greed and wickedness. You fools! Did not the one who made the outside make the inside also? So give for alms those things that are within; and see, everything will be clean for you. But woe to you Pharisees! For you tithe mint and rue and herbs of all kinds, and neglect justice and the love of God.’

Luke 12:16-21
Then he told them a parable: ‘The land of a rich man produced abundantly. And he thought to himself, ‘What should I do, for I have no place to store my crops?’ Then he said, ‘I will do this: I will pull down my barns and build larger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. And I will say to my soul, ‘Soul, you have ample goods laid up for many years; relax, eat, drink, be merry.’ But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your life is being demanded of you. And the things you have prepared, whose will they be?’ So it is with those who store up treasures for themselves but are not rich toward God.’

This is so true. Modern evangelical church sermons delve deep into the tapestry of theology. An uplifting, inspiring and educational experience that allows one to truly understand the active role God plays in helping a football team win its game.

Perhaps, you troglodyte, the prayer on National Prayer Day was intended to address those who worship God, but not Christ, as well as followers of Christ.  There are a few of those, yknow.

And, regarding the bold, Jesus was kind of the ultimate social activist.

I was thinking about how suddenly the news shifted from all sorts of world and national events to just one person. My informal survey is to check AP, Reuters, and BBC and count headlines. There’s been an overwhelming shift in focus, even though so much of the focus is on the profoundly asinine.

Then I see the trolling here and consider how the campaign was largely a meme and trolling campaign, powered by rage and attention.

Then we see the new presidential photo that looks just like Vigo the Carpathian. We used to live in Idiocracy, but we may have jumped over to Ghost Busters 2.

There may be literal slime building up under DC. How long until the Ulysses S. Grant monument comes to life and starts trampling people? Can we organize a 24-day singing of Auld Lang Syne in front of the White House?

My recommendation is to stay informed of actual events, advocate where you can, but to stop feeding the rage monster. It’s not just unhealthy for you, it’s his super power and provides his movement energy.

If you claim Christ and are supporting this filth, prayerfully search the Bible to see what it says about the hot button issues of the day. Maybe start with Deut. 24 and 27; it’s pretty explicit and applicable. Or maybe just read the book of James and think about how we should interact.

I’ve never quite understood the arrogance of some who claim to be Christian who feel it is their place to critique prayers that are not being prayed to them. How does that work, exactly?

Does Ross get his bitcoin back too? That would make him the world's newest multibillionaire

I laughed at first, but ya know, it's kind of a good question. Was the money seized from "Silk Road" as an organization? Or was it really Ross's money? I don't know if Silk Road was ever actually incorporated, so it could essentially just be a d/b/a. In that case, I could see the argument that a full pardon means he would be entitled to all of his seized belongings being returned. But I'm just speculating here. Don't think there's any previous case to compare this to.

The theology on this shit is not complicated.  And what truly fascinates me is that the evangelical movement has been so focused on "the Antichrist" for decades.....that the first chance they got to swear fealty to the Antichrist, they prostrated themselves before him with vigor and enthusiasm.  Fucking amazing.

As a lifelong atheist, I'm a little confused. Every religious person I know loves Trump and has voted for him at least once (at least, every religious person I know well enough to talk about this shit. Maybe Gary at the office is super religious and hates Trump, I don't know). Meanwhile, the non-religious people I know all fucking hate him. 

As you said, if you tried to construct an Antichrist from scratch, you wouldn't need to make any changes to Dotard. He checks every box. And they love him. Hell, they used to accuse Obama of being the Antichrist because he ate mustard or something. Make it make sense.

Wow this guy is an ugly terrible person. The internet and social media has laid bare the true thoughts and beliefs of people like this everywhere. I really didn’t realize there were this many terrible people in this country like him. I want nothing to do with people like this. I wonder if he will ever realize what a horrible human being he is and try to change.

Hi. Lifelong and fairly religious Catholic here (Mass every week and on holy days, etc). I was also a Republican from the day I could vote until '22 or so before I finally gave up on the GOP. But even before then, I've always been a Never-Trumper. I voted third-party in '16, abstained in '20, and voted for Harris in '24.

Before Trump, I felt a somewhat uneasy alliance with conservative evangelicals. While we wanted the same thing politically, I feel like there was still a level of mutual distrust of one another. I was previously a Republican because I believed it reflected Christian values more than the alternative, largely because of the issue of abortion which made things pretty black-and-white in my mind. But now, post-Roe, that dragon is slain, and looking at other moral issues--the treatment of immigrants and refugees, the environment, and capital punishment--not to mention Russian aggression, I now consider myself an independent conservative who votes more for Democrats than Republicans, and will likely continue to do so as long as MAGA runs that party.

That may be a function of your social circle, or it may be that the actually religious people you know are few in number and don’t pray on street corners.

One of the most disturbing posts ever written on this site.  Not necessarily just because of the content, but because you know there are millions more who agree.

I've managed to generally stay away from this forum since November, and I think this post alone has convinced me to keep that going.

So your belief was and still is, that pregnancy termination should not be available for anyone, even those that don’t follow the same faith?  
 

if that’s the case, my question to you is why shouldn’t it be a choice, and those that believe it is wrong for religious reasons can abstain from having the procedure done, while others have it remain a viable option?

"She failed to mention the large number of illegal immigrants that came into our Country and killed people."

She LITERALLY fucking acknowledged the criminal nature of some immigrants by noting that many are NOT criminals.  Her exact words:

That statement plainly states that while some immigrants indeed are criminals...."the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals."

Oh, and another thing I love -- it's apparently WRONG to "bring your church into the world of politics."  Huh.  FASCINATING.  I had no idea that was such a great wrong:

That's certainly part of it. There's things I agree and disagree with concerning both parties... I'm sure that's the case with most people. Even when I tolerated a GOP that was less interested in immigrants, refugees, the condemned, or our allies overseas, Trump has ramped up antagonism to all of these to levels unseen in the GOP pre-2016.

So your belief was and still is, that pregnancy termination should not be available for anyone, even those that don’t follow the same faith?  
 

if that’s the case, my question to you is why shouldn’t it be a choice, and those that believe it is wrong for religious reasons can abstain from having the procedure done, while others have it remain a viable option?

additionally the quoted portion reads to me as if abortion was such a big issue that it overshadowed all of the other things that you mentioned, and only now that roe is overturned has the general lack of Christian morals turned you away from claiming party membership.  Is that a correct comprehension of your statement?

His stance makes sense to me if you think of it (and he'll have to confirm or deny his own belief here) that if abortion is the full stop murder of human beings, then that is in many (and potentially his) minds as "murder is such a huge issue that of course being against it should oversdhadow the other stuff". So the R vs W being a non-issue now clears the path to vote against the MAGATs

All else being equal, I tend to gravitate toward female doctors vs. male.  I think women are better suited to being doctors. 

I see specialists that are women and tend to agree. I'm lucky that my primary physician is foreign born and maybe the most gentile man I've ever met. I guess I've been lucky with male doctors because there are only a few that I didn't like. 

Hell, I think women and minorities should be running everything and purging the downsides of white man rule. Since those traits are on easy display now, I don't have to enumerate them. I and other men are striving to be woke to Me Too and BLM. I've been shaken from complacent self-congratulation by those movements. 

The anti-woke agenda that's been embraced or unopposed by a vast majority of Americans perfectly states my objection to white man rule. (For the record, I'm an aging suburban white boy.)

Since the election, I've felt more profoundly disappointed than angry. I thought there were a minority of vile humans in my house. It turns out that I'm a dubiously welcome guest in theirs.

My specialist is a woman and I trust her and she's so awesome. I can't imagine, man or female, anyone better and think there is no small chance that her care is why I'm doing as well as I'm doing!

He has, and it does. And he’s also correct that the nuanced portion is a discussion for a different thread.

I've had a few visits to the Dr recently, and I don't fill out any of that bullshit. If my balls are literally in your hands I'll answer whatever questions you have.

A lot of you guys are weirdly obsessed with your healthcare provider cupping your balls.

Dare I venture a guess as to which part of the Aryan Heimat?

Texas hospitals now have to ask about citizenship. More than a few MAGA types start to rant that it's none of the hospital's business and can't they see that they're white. Then they're reminded that this was a recent legal requirement from Governor Greg Abbott and then they proudly state that they're an American citizen.

I witnessed this at MD Anderson last week upon my mom’s admission to the main hospital. The staffer apologized in advance before launching into her scripted question.

Back around the turn of the century my sister omitted a presidential internship (Clinton) from her printed resume. Then-speaker Hastert made the final hiring decision on congressional parliamentarians and she didn't want to provoke uncomfortable interview questions. The recruiting staff vetted her thoroughly but at the last minute asked her to delete it and print a fresh copy for her final interview.

I shudder to imagine what purity tests are being implimented for “non-political” civil service jobs.
