Look at that, right on track with the Hopeless Dipshit Constant(TM) of 33%.

Something something false idol

I hold no warmth for organised religion and believe it to be an accelerating net negative to society for at least the past 5 or 6 centuries, probably further.

With that said, these people aren't Christians, they haven't even successfully learned the most basic lessons of their book. They're just a hateful cult appropriating some culture that's got nothing to do with them.

If there are any actual Christians left out there that actually read the fucking bible, they should be (according to the book itself, as far as I can tell) vehemently denouncing this behaviour as loudly as they can ad nauseum. Reminding all their Christian friends this behaviour is the ticket to eternal damnation, etc.

Why isn't this happening?

Maybe they're right. Steve Carell once took action to protect the future from God's plan. Maybe we do too.

One third of Americans apparently qualify as fertilizer and not much else.

Fuck it let's give all of the different church's land and assets to Trump, call your local church ask them why good Christians like them are preventing Trump from saving this country, then watch them recoil as their money is threatened.

gods plan, he ultimately smites everyone in the end, or sends down his ANGELS to smite everyone.
