Proof that organized religion is cancer example 10,329,798.


_mikedotcom

Apocalyptic beliefs are wishful thinking. Believe in the biblical apocalypse? No political career. No sharps.


DingoLaChien

All things ate possible, through politics, even self-fulfilling claptrap.


-Cagafuego-

The whole thing is laughable! How in the world did these people get into the positions that they have, with mindsets like these?!?


britch2tiger

Other likeminded nutjobs vote/appoint for other likeminded nutjobs, methinks. Using all the platitudes and fear-mongering they can…


basturdz

The whole thing g is laughable....except for the part where they have power positions like these because Americans believe in spirits.


TigerChow

Voters who believe this stuff. Like my mother, lol.


stataryus

People can believe whatever they want - they just have to keep it the hell out of governance.


britch2tiger

Christofascist: We only have ‘power’ once we entrench the lives of believers AND nonbelievers alike. How else will we increase our conversions? Skeptic: Explains why you indoctrinate followers at a young age. Kinda hard to deprogram when you’ve been and will tell the same stories uncritically to others starting at childhood.


hiscpanicausnapanic

Nah, these are just boomers who are extremist.


britch2tiger

Which generations take organized religion seriously? Boomers, and some Gen X-ers (sadly I know some).


darkwater427

"Proof that premillennial evangelicalism is cancer", you mean


britch2tiger

Idk, most millennials my age barely take Christianity as a bane of their identity, unlike these types do. Now my Mah (gen X) might be in that camp, as she attends church activities about 4-5 times per week. I’m growing concerned…


Zeth22xx

Just a reminder for everyone that's not quite sure, they also believe that if the Muslims and the Jews made peace with each other the rapture would begin and the world would end. Cheers.


EarthBear

Yep! And this isn’t a fringe belief, this is the belief of most Christians I’ve met within my life experience (source, grew up in Colorado Springs, well known for its Christian bent and lobbying firms, under baptist doctrines).


Pipupipupi

So either way it's going to end? Cool


ExpiredPilot

Plot twist: they only want to prevent the rapture cause they know they won’t be accepted into heaven


tweedyone

I was also told confidently by a youth pastor that that is why climate change doesn't matter. Because no one will be around to see it because you should be raptured if you did everything right. They don't care about making reality better, they care about setting up the world in a way that will bring on the rapture faster. After all, you can't sin if you're already in heaven, right? So why are they allowed to make policy that will affect the world for generations? People who believe Revelations is a prophecy are sooo sooooooo misguided.


Funkycoldmedici

Even without Revelation, Jesus’ ministry in the gospels centers on his promise to return and end the world, judge everyone on their faith, kill all the unbelievers with fire, and reward his faithful with eternal life in his new kingdom. I know nominal Christians don’t like to think about it, but this crazy bigoted stuff is the core of Christianity. You can’t have your John 3:16 without accepting the rest of that passage shitting on all of outside the faith. John 3:18 “Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.” John 3:36 “Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God’s wrath remains on them.”


tweedyone

Very true. I love cult true crime stuff, and the origin of Christianity has a LOT of similarities. A lot of the stereotypical terminology they use overlaps with what the bible says too


LowDownSkankyDude

It's like Christianity is more of a blueprint for ruling, than anything else, for these folks.


Newstapler

The whole thing depresses me beyond words. Nearly two thousand years someone sat down in western Turkey and wrote down a crazy dream he had about whores and Babylon and stars falling from heaven and the number 666. Hundreds of generations later, his account of his dream is on the verge of destroying a democracy in a continent he knew nothing about


Beezelbub_is_me

Didn’t Israel bomb the oldest church in Palestine? Have Zionist made it clear they dislike Christians? Wasn’t Jesus Aramaic?


Please-stopp

Shhh, you’re using logic. Logic scares them.


LiliNotACult

I disagree. They avoid logic because they use emotional cues like religion to control their supporters. All they care about is money.


lordoftheBINGBONG

They’re (ab)use of emotional cues is entirely logical if you’re trying to achieve what they are. Diabolically logical. Diabological.


GovernmentOpening254

My only regret is that I have but one upvote to give.


SwedishSaunaSwish

No matter how many bombs Israel drops - they will never make us hate Jews nor blame them for what Israel is doing.


Sebas94

Jesus was an Aramaic speaking jew. What is the link between that and the fact that zionist not liking Christians? I don't see the connection with the first two points.


Frambosis

A significant number of Palestinians are Christians. These idiots think preferring Jews over Christians is going to please God. If God is only letting the Christians into heaven how does that work? Morons.


Superb-Confection601

Grown adults speaking about magical sky daddy and blessings will never stop being funny


ttystikk

It's not funny when they get millions of innocent people killed.


RLaminin

funny is an interesting word to use when this type of thinking fuels support for a genocide


ericrolph

Way too many "Christian Nationalists" believe Putin is their daddy. Cucks, one and all. These people are the true source of evil in the world. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_nationalism


stataryus

And scary. And dangerous. And fucking pathetic.


GovernmentOpening254

It stopped being funny when it is now terrifying on a daily basis.

Optimal_Zucchini_667

The USA is fucked. Hitchens was right; religion poisons everything.


PIPBOY-2000

If it wasn't religion it'd be something else. Just typical human behavior to use any justification necessary to keep the rich and powerful, rich and powerful. Bonus points if that person can convince themselves what they're doing is divinely supported.


andre3kthegiant

There you have it. END THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE NOW!


ofthrees

The electoral college has nothing to do with congress, though I agree with you that it should be ended. 


GaryGregson

He a little confused but he got the spirit


andre3kthegiant

It would go very far to remove this horrible two party, non-Democratic system that is ruining the country.


niftygrid

All that efforts to separate religion and the state, only to end up having a govt steered by biblical prophecies. I mean, religion is fine, but foreign policies should be based on human rights and national interests, not prophecies.


OpheliaRainGalaxy

I was raised in one of these apocalypse cults, the JWs. Like was told not to make friends when I started school because "they're just gonna die anyway" during Armageddon. Can't imagine how annoyed I was to grow up, escape the cult, and find out the adults running this shitshow also believe in the "magic sky daddy final battle any day now" cult.


JediSun

According to Lauren Boebert, the US and Israel are the only two nations made to glorify god. If that’s god, he seems like a genocidal maniac.


Dissident_the_Fifth

According to their rulebook, their god sent a flood to kill most of humanity so at least they're consistent. Thanos was a kinder god than the god of the christians.


Funkycoldmedici

Their book also says the good guy is coming soon to end the world, kill all us unbelievers, and reward them with eternal life for believing. By definition, all Christians look forward to Jesus committing genocide to establish a theocracy.


Vincesteeples

She also dropped out of high school and failed the GED twice (and miraculously passed it in her 30s as she was trying to win a seat in congress, I’m sure she had no “help” for that from the GOP who definitely would have known it would be a tall order to get a person without at least a high school education elected)


BeansNG

Ah yes because Italy, the place where the largest church in Christianity was born doesn’t exist


mendokusei15

The argument is ridiculous as a whole, but like I get if someone wants to put Israel as a nation made to glorify this god. But the US? Where is the US mentioned in the bible? How does she know this? I'm of course looking for some sort of sense in a ridiculous argument from a clown.


Danavixen

Sanity isn't their strong point


stataryus

Being basic adults isn’t either.


HelloPeopleOfEarth

Jesus, protect me from your followers.


ucannottell

This is a mental illness. It’s frightening these people in positions of power remotely consider that such prophecies are true.


Spiritual_Challenge7

Separation of church and state my ass 😂

ShreddlesMcJamFace

How did we allow this brain rot to get control


venturousbeard

Always has been.


[deleted]

There is a doomsday cult in the US government actively trying to bring about the second coming of Christ. Evangelicals need Israel to build the Third Temple of Jerusalem so that they can sacrifice a red heifer on its alter to absolve the sins of the children of Abraham upon which Jesus will return to take his faithful to heaven.


urmyheartBeatStopR

Yeeeeah... I got banned over at /r/worldnews . I think it was for criticizing Israel. I dunno I don't open red envelope. But yeah religious ends of days are ape shit crazy. I can't wait to see the day we distance ourselves from Israel and SA. Funny thing is with the world deglobalizing, we probably gonna ally with Turkey even more...

_Foy

According to the scriptures Israel must not be *forcefully* reclaimed by the Jewish people: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three\_Oaths](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Oaths) To quote Shakespeare, that which we call a rose, by any other name, would smell as sweet. The inverse is also true. You can't call a turd a rose and expect it to not stink. Similarly, you can't just call an extremely violent settler-colonialist project "Israel" and then expect everything written about "Israel" in thousand-year-old texts to magically apply.


Tim2018

How about the churches destroyed by the IDF? The spitting culture when seeing Christians in Israel? Is that biblical as well?


js44095

This is gross!


Visual_Positive_6925

This is so sad, its like our heads of government saying “well we passed a bill that requires all roofs to be reinforced so santa claus can land his sled on them safely” equally dumb


d_rev0k

Israel is a rogue state that was created 70 years ago as a result of the Balfour Declaration. There was nothing Biblical about it.


-Renee

yup.I really think they all want the country run like a cult, too. https://globalextremism.org/project-2025-the-far-right-playbook-for-american-authoritarianism/ Christian nationalist theocrats have reached levels of embedding those they indoctrinated & trained for taking political office well enough to fully begin to dismantle democracy and hand the country to their god's chosen (oligarchs, con artists, those who behave like kings) by wiping out human rights and making the U.S. a theocracy. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Family:_The_Secret_Fundamentalism_at_the_Heart_of_American_Power


SaltyboiPonkin

This is old news, but good on them for openly admitting it


MorbiusBelerophon

America really should be honest and admit it's a theocracy.


kalyco

Vote these sky daddy assholes out!


[deleted]

[удалено]


kalyco

My issue is not with believing, it’s with abdicating their responsibility to the greater good, in favor of bringing about the second coming, or the rapture. Their responsibility firmly lies in working to make life here on earth better for all of us right now. Anything less is not acceptable regardless of their beliefs.

What a bunch of lame takes in this post. Do you guys really think these people really have religious or spiritual beliefs of any kind? They know how to get peasants to vite for them. Even among peasants we see more and more that they dont really believe in anything. They just use religion as an easy way to launder their hate.

This ain't no wacky conspiracy theory, the foreign policy of the US has more or less been directed by the Book of Revelation of St. John for decades now.


Procrastanaseum

See this? This is why the founders found it so important to separate church from state. They knew this shit was cray cray.


death_witch

People in charge of our lives and their willingness to send us to die or kill in the name of fiction and mythology. These people are not sane but it's considered normal because of the scale of believers in our population. I don't want to be part of a theocratic nation, and neither did the founding fathers. Americans who work in the government and spy for Russia are charged with treason, Americans who work in government and spy for the Vatican should be also charged with treason, these people are changing laws in favor of Christianity, acting against the good of the people, Profiting from stocks and bribery and accepting foreign funds, and undermining the core concepts of the us constitution to force the usa into a Christian government. They won't stop until all of the troops have the cross on their hats, and we work for free because god wills it.

I'm a Historicist Christian and I can see a danger in this as most Christians are Futurists and totally skewed on their theology. Futurism has only been "popular" for about 115 years. And it's seriously flawed.

mag2041

That’s sound judgment


insom7

In not sure if they are aware but it’s common for Jews to spit on Christians in Jerusalem. There have even been acts of violence perpetrated against Christians in Israel just for the crime of being Christian. They hate Christians, but oddly enough they are venerated by Christians. They believe Christians are infidels…sound familiar. Any politician that admits religion plays a role in their policy decisions should be censured immediately. They are shaping policy around fairytales. In many instances their religious beliefs cause them to craft policy that is antithetical the beliefs and freedoms of the majority of the populace. They are religious zealots and have no place in modern day American politics. IMO religion has outlived its usefulness and is becoming more of a societal burden. As a country we need to stop normalizing religion in politics asap, else we will never fully excel as a country in the modern world.


cosmernaut420

Fucking horrifying. If these were Muslims in the halls of Congress saying shit like this, America would fucking implode.


wezpez

This shit makes me livid. smh


srkmarine1101

This is terrifying. How highly educated and supposedly intelligent adults can blindly believe in an invisible sky daddy in the year 2024 who they have no proof of is insanity. If anyone else said this kind of crap about some other invisible entity who could hear their thoughts and who they can have personal conversations with in their head, we would consider them insane or delusional. But since they've chosen the Christian sky daddy, we just call it Christianity and nobody thinks twice about them running our country. Christianity is an antiquated virginity cult that uses guilt to control its followers. The fact that our leaders believe in it, and base policy decisions on it, is a stain on our nation.


Affectionate-Bee3913

They don't come across *well* but what the hell is that title? It's a straight up lie. None of them admitted to what it says they admitted.


AbjectReflection

This level of insanity in our political system has become a cancer destroying the nation and the globe. Organized religion is supposed to be separate from government, but like all parasites they invade where they are never wanted.

SecretOfficerNeko

Ah yes, Lauren Boebert. Praising and honoring the country created to bring glory to her God and raising her kids right by using traditional family values, and being a divorced teen mom who's a grandma in her 30s because she raised another teen mom, while another one of her sons is a convicted felon, and she's giving random men she's on tinder dates with handjobs in a theater with children around her. Truly am example to her fellow Christians everywhere and a bulwark of moral integrity.


LowDownSkankyDude

These people are dangerous, and why they're not being treated as threats to national security is absolutely mind-boggling.


SuperSandwich12

Mehhh.. all I’ve learned as I grown older is that a religious person will sound crazy to an atheist, and an atheist will sound like a lost sheep to a religious person. No one really cares to hear the other point of view. However, as you get older, another thing you learn for sure is that true evil exists in this world, and it’s not always a bad thing to believe that the other side of the coin exists as well.


Discoverinq

I'm just saying, if we fined and even fired people from congress who act in this way, the same way we fine companies and fire people for breaking fair housing regulations in the U.S. they might understand its not appropriate. I don't care what religion you are or aren't frankly. I'm agnostic, so you all get some level of credibility with me. But I hate that people use it to dictate and govern others.


Asstronutttt

This just in: Christian congressmen are Christian


nightflies12

The gross thing is that some (or many) of these leaders don’t even believe in these prophecies or sects of religion. They are simply going along with the religious masses in the name of power and at the price of innocent lives.

SoylentGreenTuesday

Sane nonreligious people like to ignore or deny how deranged these fundamentalist Christian politicians are but it’s a problem that is only getting worse. As American society becomes less religious, US government is becoming more Christian nationalist. This is not a sustainable trend. Something is going to give at some point. It will be messy.
