It's almost like these people have never actually read the Bible.

Tax churches, make them keep playing the victim when they need to justify just how much they are fleecing from their congregation

Jesus fucking Christ.

There's only 10 fucking commandments! How hard is it to remember 10 short items for a faith you claim to believe in.

Watch The God Who Wasn't There - there is some guy calmly talking about murdering gays - but it's okay, because it would be the state doing it (in the trailer below).

This shit has been simmering under the surface for decades upon decades. This is why you cannot have xtians running around and saying this is a "xtian country", because eventually enough get it in their heads that it really is one and they'll set about having government infected with their crazy bullshit and telling us how to live our lives (or not live our lives at all if you are born "wrong").

I don't think people really understand when I tell them that cons are not really patriots and don't really love this country like normal Americans do. They want to turn it into something else that is the very opposite of what America is supposed to stand for.

We need to sever church from state permanently.

We can never let the religious orginize as a political group after the pendulum swings back.

I'm surprised we haven't heard from the Westboro Baptist Church lately. Maybe they think their schtick has become normalized.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago

They lost steam when Fred Phelps died. Also they became normalized. But largely they were pissing off everyone on purpose. They protested the funerals of both gay people and soldiers
