A friend sent me an image from Fox News. Storyline; the presence of Communists in Milwaukee, w/their flags & literature. My guess their presence may have been small. Any info about this?
“And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you." --Matthew 6:5-6
"Did you hear our 'Amen' in there? We just said a little loud prayer as a team."
So, she readily makes it clear she is a hypocrite who will receive no reward from the deity she claims to serve.
There is a satirical movie Magic Christian starring Ringo and Peter Sellars. At the end they throw money into a vat of sewage and people dive in. It’s worth a viewing.
All around nauseating. I don't belong to any organized religion, but trying to hijack a real religion is utterly disgusting. Ugh to phonies everywhere.
On Monday, KKKaroline Leavtwit rejected Pope Leo XIV's claim that God does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war.
Within hours of the first American Pope’s
Palm Sunday homily, a coordinated pushback had erupted across MAGA media arguing that the five-language polyglot didn't understand the Bible.
Leavtwit never addressed what Pope Leo actually said. The Pope never questioned whether Americans should pray. He said God rejects the prayers of those whose hands are full of blood.
The distinction matters — and Leavtwit’s refusal to engage with it tells you everything about where this regime stands in relation to the faith it claims to represent.
Dear KKKaroline Leavtwit,
If you have to keep telling people you're a Christian, you're not a Christian.
It's like when you're smart.
If you're smart, you don't have to keep telling people that you're smart. She’s definitely a Leav-Twit….

Yes, my brain is a Wrinkle in Time,..

Great Thunderstorms overnight...and still into the am. does the ole heart and brain good
Amen to the Smite God and Jesus! To use religion to substantiate anything is against the law of Separation of Church and State! Religion should play ANY ROLE in military or government! Thank you for all you do!
I love you, but I wish you would go back to putting everything in print or captions because I am rarely in a place where I can use audio (and I would guess many others are in the same position), and miss all the wonderful quotes you lead up to. Your social media presence seems to be in good hands,, so maybe they could extend backward to your loyal luddite readers. Thank you for your consideration.
My own main philosophical contention with christianity is the concept of “original sin” which, since I was a teenager, I considered ridiculous and the height of arrogance. If I commit a sin (and of course I have), it is MY responsibility and my fault—no one else’s. Full stop.
Our whole justice system in the West for centuries — and our view of other humans — has been (I hope) slowly moving to exactly your position: unless a person is an accomplice in some way they are not responsible for the actions of others and should not be punished for them
Yes; I too realised that blaming and punishing an entire species for the actions of one mythical couple (Eve and Adam) thousands of years ago is completely wrong-headed.
As is considering them forgiven if they believe that the actions and history of one man (Jesus) a bit later have rendered them exonerated for things they have done in their own life.
Er, yeah; wasn't that like, the whole point of Jesus's putting up with all that crucifixion crap, to redeem humanity once and for all? :-/ After that major sacrifice, no one should've been blaming babies for "the sins of the fathers"... X-P
(And there apparently WAS a Mitochondrial Eve and Y-Chromosome Adam, as far as /Homo sapiens sapiens/ is concerned [and if you want to talk "original sin," what happened to the other few /Homo sapiens/ subspecies {H. s. neanderthalensis, H. s. denisovans, etc.}?]; whether or not they were in the same time period hundreds of thousands of years ago or knew each other is a bigger question, but they're the ones whose descendants survived to become the Cro-Magnons, aka us... :-/)
Well, I look at the creation myth this way — as it is written.
From Days 1 to 6 The God created stuff, finishing with humans on Day 6 (male and female, and probably hairy because so many mammals are hairy). (The God liked hair — the hair was pretty in the sunlight and kept the animals warm, dry, slightly tougher and so on. The God was perhaps hairy himself.)
On the 7th day the God rested in the Garden of Eden.
But he had made mistakes. Things grew where he didn't want them and wouldn't grow where he did want them. Plants needed pruning, and soil, mulch and compost had to be gathered up and carted around. The God wasn't having a bar of that. He was the Lord, remember?
He'd run out of creation stuff to make servants so took some clay or dirt or something and fashioned a male golem (Adam) to do the gardening. That was Adam. Then The God cut a bone and tissue sample from Adam and grew a female version (Eve).
When Adam and Eve "sinned", the God put the pox on all their descendants … which after only one generation happened to meet and mingle with the Day 6 humans. And breeeeed…
So ALL descendants of Adam and Eve have a wee dram of their blood, and therefore the pox is on us all.
We also are a mix of hairy bits (from the Day 6 humans) and bald bits (from a golem made of clay or something). Other animals probably think we are HILARIOUS.

Pope Leo!

Yeah—I read the book. It’s one of those books you can never forget.

Leavitt doesn’t have to play a fake Christian. She is a fake, all the way around.

They are known by their fruits: love, joy, peace..
Is Leavitt still wearing that cross around her neck?!
I would substitute an albatross
Ooh…like a rotting albatross!! But on a day when she’s not pretending that she’s a Christian
and not wearing the cross.

Same here—because my hearing is very bad. Almost all platforms lately seem to be going to audio only.
"The only way to get to Heaven is to shed the blood of … as many people as you want to, and can."
Then you've got your Heaven on Earth, between your ears. Temporarily… until you next get the urge to kill.
It. seems their God is a whiny little bitch
Yeah. The original quote in God's post was, "The only way to get to Heaven is to shed the blood of Jesus…" and that's bad enough!
Every time someone turns Christian, does Jesus get crucified all over again?
And then so-called "Christians" have killed, kill and want to kill millions, thousands of millions …

Don't forget, Pam Bondi was Trumps second choice. Coulda had Matt Gaetz, but he withdrew. Two of Florida’s best & brightest!
I've been a paid follower for a while. My problem with the audio is the very unpleasant sounding voice of God. Maybe strive for something soothing?
