|u/GregAbbottsTinyPenis - 11 hours
|
|Hitler was jailed for a coup attempt after leading 3,000
|Brownshirts to seize a military installation in 1923. He made
|alliances with a general and the head of the Bavarian police,
|promising them high positions when he seized power. He was
|arrested and charged with high treason on 11/11/1923. He used his
|trial to sell his ideas to the public by appealing to their fears
|and prejudices. He was sentenced to a surprisingly light 5 years
|for high treason the following April, which he only served 9
|months of. Now replace Brownshirts with Redhats and replace the
|military installation with The US Capitol Building and we’ve got
|the same thing going on here. We need to be standing together and
|putting our differences aside. [UNITED WE STAND, DIVIDED WE

|Religion is a prosthetic conscience for people who might not have the
|capacity to think too hard about the implications of their choices and
|actions, which may boil down to evolutionary mechanisms that don't
|necessarily favor rational thought over violence in perceived survival
|situations. Which is to say, morality isn't linked to religion as
|long as society is progressing and resources are being distributed
|fairly. When this mechanism breaks down and religion takes over it's a
|sign that we're in trouble. The real moral responsibility we all have
|is to do our part to make sure everyone we share a society with is
|taken care of, regardless of our differences, or else...

|I am a Christian and I certainly do not believe that at all and he

|soon true believers will be taken out of here (I think the media

|the tribulation will start. After a while a mark will be required
|to buy or sell (that’s why Trump’s pairing with Elon digital
|currency and neuralink seem very suspicious). Anyone that takes
|the mark is no longer able to be saved. My guess especially with ai
|and neuralink is that whatever the mark does you give up all
|sovereignty of yourself and are no longer completely human - the
|Bible says that it will be so bad that people with the mark will beg
|for death and be unable to find it. I do believe that is coming up
|in the very near future. Jesus is the way the truth and the life.
|He provides infinite peace and has offered it to anyone who chooses
|to accept it. Sadly many outright reject the truth and prefer to
|live in defiance. We are in a unique time where there are many
|churches and people who claim to be Christians who are not, it was
|prophesied that it would be this way at the end. Matt 7:21-23 Not
|everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of
|heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in
|heaven. Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not
|prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your
|name perform many miracles?’ Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never
|knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’ Catholicism isn’t biblical
|- that’s why the catholic church has done so many evil things
|throughout history and they have a pagan obelisk representing Baal’s
|shaft (reproductive organ) in front of St. Peter’s basilica among
|many other pagan traditions they hold as doctrine. How to be saved:
|Call on the Lord Jesus Christ, admit you are a sinner, that you
|believe his blood atonement paid for your sins, and he rose on the
|third day. Put your faith in him and be saved. 1 cor 15:1-4 Rom

|Words and actions matter. Trump either doesn't understand that or

|thoroughly appalled that this unloving, crime-ridden sexual predator is

|It's very ironic that Trump and Christian Nationalism are going to help

|ignore that. American Christianity is down roughly 30 percent since
|the 1970s. Out of the 65 or so percent of Americans that still identify
|as a Christian, many of them are lukewarm and have one foot out the
|door. Most Christians I know couldn't tell a gospel verse from a recipe
|for chocolate chip cookies. They just do whatever they want and then
|occasionally go YAY JESUS! I'm an ex Christian that I'm extremely
|biased towards the religion so the fact that it's losing power,

|terrible and ugly for what they voted for (and multiple times at that).
|I just don't see how you could vote for Trump over anybody. I don't even
