Thank you for this conversation. Jesus said he who is without sin cast the first stone. I guess these White Christians Nationalists preachers have been casting a lot of stones to their flock! Separate but equal that is how faith should be you don’t have a President interrupting services with political interference or messages.

Yep sorry, I have learned that Jesus shall come as thief in the night so to speak he is not there to start any wars At all!

April: So that was you doing the toxic Blondie waitress thing? That was CLASSIC! I've just started watching you guys and you and Tim are top-notch. As a comedian, I put you right up there with Desi Lydic, and that is a high bar indeed. Keep it comin'. I'm a comedian myself. I come up with most of my jokes at night, but no one wants a lie-down comic. And I'm so old, I went to Universal's Jurassic World and all the guests wanted to have their picture taken standing next to me. I'm on YouTube as well.

You need to read Thom Hartmann's post today positing that Jared K and Whitkoff set the Iranians up with the allure of negotiations and then bc the leaders were all in the same space deliberating about the negotiations, Isreal (who is evil) bombed them knowing this would wipe out the leadershipl.

Whatever Trump did to get himself in the Epstein files, it must be bad. I'm starting to wonder if he killed someone.

Now why would the state of Israel want to assist in the 'End Times'? There's nothing in it for them, as the same right wing Christians who believe in the need for the existence of Israel for the 'End Times' to come will also tell you that anyone who doesn't become a Christian will be sent to a warm place. That's about as cynical as you can get.

Then again, the 'Hand of God' (chuckle chuckle) DJT probably would have tried to make a deal with G-d for the rights to the earth after all was destroyed. (what's in it for ME!?) Religious apocalyptic predictions are always hooey.

Frankly, I'd believe more that it was going to be the Vogon Constructor Fleet making way for that galactic highway.

How egotistical of the Evangelicals. THEY cannot force God's hand by attacking the MidEast. Who the hell do they think they are? And Donald is most certainly NOT "anointed" by God. More likely, Donald is creating a war of distraction for his own personal reasons and gains, since that is how he sees EVERY transaction, through the prism of how he will benefit from it.

Absolutely delusional. And the fact that military "leaders" were spewing this absurdity is extremely troubling.

The Iranian Martyr Makes The Iranian War A Religious One: Inevitable Consequence Of CNPP

The murder to the aged cancer stricken Khamenei by Israeli forces has turned him into a Muslim martyr This has put our Nazi regime on the spot and in response Hegseth now says that this conflict is a biblically sanctioned religious one, Muslim vs Christianity/Jewish religions This makes this conflict a terrible, dangerous, reckless, and emotional catastrophe There are many emotionally charged Shia Muslims in the Middle Eastern region who view the US Israeli warring coalition creating a religious war Because of this this has the high probability of expanding to many nations in the region

The fascist Netanyahu has long wanted this moment because Iran through its terrorist groups Hamas, Hezbollah, and Houthis have threatened his theocratic Jewish state As an oppressive warmongering far right Israeli government with the defiantly not giving in to the need for a two state solution, this theocratic state has induced Cheeto’s Dept of War because they are equal religious warmongers

But Netanyahu has coopted the American far right warmongers and it’s right up CNPP’s(Christian Nationalist Pedo Party) mission, to create a “Christian” nation standing up against all pagan states The moniker of CNPP is just an political excuse to create a fascist strongman, autocratic government As Parnas reports, commanders are reportedly telling troops the Iran war is “all part of God’s divine plan,” with one noncommissioned officer alleging a commander said “President Trump has been anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth”

Do any of those dimwits realize that in calling for war and the killing of innocents they will visit the warth of God upon themselves and therefore doomed themselves (or dammed themselves - whichever). Honestly, I don't believe one-tenth of them read or have read or subscribed to the words of Jesus in the Bible.

Why don't they just send themselves to heaven and leave the rest of us normal people tf alone? Wanna go to heaven so badly? Fucking GO.

Yeah, this is just super-special. Does this make Donald J. Trump the Antichrist? I've heard a number of smart religious, like Rev. Trevors and Fr. David, opine that he's not. But I'm beginning to doubt that, he checks off pretty much all the boxes.

I've wondered the same thing too. Maybe this is the start of the end.
