It’s really scary when one has bible thumping relatives calling out the Pope as immoral and extremist, and embracing Donald Trump.

JD Vance is, but he's basically a bit player in the whole Magaverse. He's there to break ties and run interference on the stupidest of mainstream media, not to actually have any role in policy.

There’s a lot of Christians who disobey the pope because he’s running counter to co-prez Trump.

Christianity /= following the pope.

The Pope is exclusively catholic.

Does the Pope shit in the woods?

[–] Mbourgon@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Thank you for the correction.

there's a whole parish here in my small town that's all in on the maga juice. bot farms, vpn accounts, fake social media accounts, the whole bit. employees too, not just parishioners. spreading the hate and promoting the maga cult and candidates. just like 'god' intended.

They should lose their tax exempt status.

To be fair, they all should.
