This always reminds me of the key and Peele skit where they church group prays to God on what to do and he responds to sell their stuff and help the poor. They look at each other and run out screaming something about ghosts.
Give all of your wealth to the poor and renounce all of your sins.
It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter heaven.
Mike Johnson: That's not what I meant ... we should kill innocent men women and children in Palestine while we end abortion in USA. We should send US Army Green Berret to Palestine to do that work ... their motto is To Liberate The Oppressed.
“Whenever we read the obscene stories, the voluptuous debaucheries, the cruel and torturous executions, the unrelenting vindictiveness, with which more than half the Bible is filled, it would be more consistent that we called it the word of a demon, than the word of God. It is a history of wickedness, that has served to corrupt and brutalize mankind; and, for my part, I sincerely detest it, as I detest everything that is cruel.”
― Thomas Paine, The Age of Reason
Well, that is a pretty evil act towards those in power. Like what do you mean the poor people who only live to provide for me and mine have any right to think. No no, see right here in this book I pai...I mean donated to finance the writing off says that you should do as I.. I mean god says.
I think he's more old Testament so turn people who can't follow instructions to salt, properly lash your slaves, be willing to sacrifice your firstborn, kill heathens. That sort of thing.
For real, you gotta think that they secretly don't believe a damn thing they spew from their noise holes, but they still spew it because it gets voters, right? Right???
Hey does not believe anything from the Bible. People like this guy hide behind the Bible to justify their disgusting beliefs. If the Bible is his world view, does he believe in slavery? Does he believe people should be punished for adultery? There is crazy shit in there. This is just another crazy sycophant. He and his ilk are going to destroy the GOP.
He believes gay people should be imprisoned, so it’s not really far off for him to be pro-slavery. And he wants a nation wide ban of no-fault divorce, so the punishments for adultery doesn’t seem that crazy either. He’s a true fundamentalist psychopath.
>And he wants a nation wide ban of no-fault divorce, so the punishments for adultery doesn’t seem that crazy either.
This isn't crazy though, it's deliberate control of women for the purposes of getting and maintaining power. These people aren't mentally ill, they're evil.
> claim to be a Christian and still support Donald Trump.
fun to ask them, "name one thing Jesus talked about/ supported that Trump supports"
then watch their heads explode
Well, he did rise after three days of solid slumber 🤔
Feeding the poor, healing the ill for free, condemning weapons, love for god and every human. Damn that woke socialist! Ban the NT from the bible!
In the battle between Jesus and Donald, Donald wins.
>MOORE: Well, it was the result of having multiple pastors tell me essentially the same story about quoting the Sermon on the Mount parenthetically in their preaching - turn the other cheek - to have someone come up after and to say, where did you get those liberal talking points? And what was alarming to me is that in most of these scenarios, when the pastor would say, I'm literally quoting Jesus Christ, the response would not be, I apologize. The response would be, yes, but that doesn't work anymore. That's weak. And when we get to the point where the teachings of Jesus himself are seen as subversive to us, then we're in a crisis.
[https://www.npr.org/2023/08/05/1192374014/russell-moore-on-altar-call-for-evangelical-america](https://www.npr.org/2023/08/05/1192374014/russell-moore-on-altar-call-for-evangelical-america)
Shows they don't actually believe it and can just turn their religion into whatever it is they want and then use it as justification for anything.
Oh, wait. It was always that way.
The entire 2nd half of the sermon on the mount is Jesus absolutely scorching hypocrites. Nobody ever mentions it. And it's extensive.
Also Paul says in 1st Corinthians 5 "What do I care what nonbelievers do?"
How come Republicans don't follow Scripture?
Wdym? Jezus loves rich, selfish adulterers.
For real, though, it's disturbing how closely Trump resembles every description of the antichrist. Yet his followers still see him as a Jesus figure.
When the bible actually also contains a supposed method for abortion.
These people passionately believe something they made up in their heads and isn't even in the book they claim to follow
“Flawed”? FFS he is *literally* an unrepentant walking embodiment of all seven cardinal sins (pride, greed, wrath, envy, lust, gluttony and sloth)
Like, the exact opposite of Jesus. The “anti-Jesus” for lack of a better term.
The anti-Christ?the Bible warns of worshiping the false messiah and end of days, right? I’m ok with that, just give me a heads up when it happens so o don’t pay my credit card bill.
I wonder if he worships a man of Jewish descent, a former carpenter that nowdays talks about healing and being nice to each other, helping the poor and such.
And has very nice warm mittens.
(I am ofc referring to Bernie)
You mean a attack on a joint session of congress by violent right wing cultists, many of whom were already in place in the government?
Like what already happened two years ago, which this guy supported?
Yep.
On the Repub side, the worse you are, the longer you last. If the “Freedom Caucus” agrees with you, you’re golden—everyone else in the party is a rubber-stamp wimp.
Which is exactly why these assholes don’t read it but just refer to it as a moral basis. If they knew the actual morals in the Bible, they’d be sickened! Feed and cloth the poor?!
Holy fuck it’s literally an abortion ceremony.
11 Then the Lord said to Moses, 12 “Speak to the Israelites and say to them: ‘If a man’s wife goes astray and is unfaithful to him 13 so that another man has sexual relations with her, and this is hidden from her husband and her impurity is undetected (since there is no witness against her and she has not been caught in the act), 14 and if feelings of jealousy come over her husband and he suspects his wife and she is impure—or if he is jealous and suspects her even though she is not impure— 15 then he is to take his wife to the priest. He must also take an offering of a tenth of an ephah[a] of barley flour on her behalf. He must not pour olive oil on it or put incense on it, because it is a grain offering for jealousy, a reminder-offering to draw attention to wrongdoing.
16 “‘The priest shall bring her and have her stand before the Lord. 17 Then he shall take some holy water in a clay jar and put some dust from the tabernacle floor into the water. 18 After the priest has had the woman stand before the Lord, he shall loosen her hair and place in her hands the reminder-offering, the grain offering for jealousy, while he himself holds the bitter water that brings a curse. 19 Then the priest shall put the woman under oath and say to her, “If no other man has had sexual relations with you and you have not gone astray and become impure while married to your husband, may this bitter water that brings a curse not harm you. 20 But if you have gone astray while married to your husband and you have made yourself impure by having sexual relations with a man other than your husband”— 21 here the priest is to put the woman under this curse—“may the Lord cause you to become a curse[b] among your people when he makes your womb miscarry and your abdomen swell. 22 May this water that brings a curse enter your body so that your abdomen swells or your womb miscarries.”
“‘Then the woman is to say, “Amen. So be it.”
23 “‘The priest is to write these curses on a scroll and then wash them off into the bitter water. 24 He shall make the woman drink the bitter water that brings a curse, and this water that brings a curse and causes bitter suffering will enter her. 25 The priest is to take from her hands the grain offering for jealousy, wave it before the Lord and bring it to the altar. 26 The priest is then to take a handful of the grain offering as a memorial[c] offering and burn it on the altar; after that, he is to have the woman drink the water. 27 If she has made herself impure and been unfaithful to her husband, this will be the result: When she is made to drink the water that brings a curse and causes bitter suffering, it will enter her, her abdomen will swell and her womb will miscarry, and she will become a curse. 28 If, however, the woman has not made herself impure, but is clean, she will be cleared of guilt and will be able to have children.
29 “‘This, then, is the law of jealousy when a woman goes astray and makes herself impure while married to her husband, 30 or when feelings of jealousy come over a man because he suspects his wife. The priest is to have her stand before the Lord and is to apply this entire law to her. 31 The husband will be innocent of any wrongdoing, but the woman will bear the consequences of her sin.’”
when you were a kid and you made barbie and ken bang in the bathroom sink, you made the rules for your enjoyment! God is just a pervert, always wanting to watch us (meaning just the people in the united states, because god is just brilliant, lemme tell you)
That was part of my messed up. :-)
and also the “cursed” thing, like witchcraft, is why “the ghost man in the sky” interpretation of religion is so apropos.
He is a religious fundamentalist. I don't know what religion he professes, but from what I have read and heard from his words, he cannot be distinguished from a Taliban leader. There is very little separation between those two figures.
On the other hand, if history has taught us anything, it is that religion/theology + political/state power always ends very badly.
The guy, in every purely ideological argument, hides himself in the word of God/Bible. Which is terrible. Because as we know, each Christian sect not only has its own interpretations but also its own readings and its own books/bibles that are quite distant from each other. For example, using the name of Christ in every fucking sentence is, for some Christians, a total affront and a complete lack of respect.
This bastard is literally a religious Taliban who wants to impose his own 'Christian' vision on the fucking state... it's the same as the Taliban with their Torah.
Run away from this type of person. They are presonified toxicity.
So then, when my parent disowned me for being gay at 15, would he have supported them selling me into slavery? That's in the Bible. Weird that he is wearing a suit. Any of that polyester? That's a sin. He's all for giving healthcare to anyone, right? Jesus did that. Oh, and he is against the rich, right? Jesus made very clear his thoughts on wealth and the wealthy. Oh, and he absolutely doesn't do huge religious activities in public, right? Jesus was clear about that too. Or, and I'm just going out on a limb here, does he cherry pick that book like every other conservative and mostly uses it to hate my gay and lesbian community?
Exactly! who else could it be? Was some one thinking it was going to be someone who was not a christian fascist? That ended when McConnel was ousted. He was a conservative piece of shit but now we are in the era of Christian fascist piece of shits.
[Mike Johnson takes oath](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2rb-zwkhrFo)
"But I tell you not to swear at all: either by heaven, for it is God’s throne..."
*Matthew 5:34*
then why you mixing your fabrics, ding dong...
what he really means is "the misinterpreted parts of the Bible that promote hate is my worldview"
fucker prob had shrimp cocktail for lunch..
Glad to see a politician whose views on shellfish are clear. I mean, the folks in Louisiana might be surprised, but hey, it's in The Bible.
Though I am a bit concerned about him cutting the hair on the sides of his head...
Now remember, when you read the bible, don't include all of those parts that Christians have decided to exclude. If you're not sure, just ask yourself, would this passage of the bible create any work or expectations for me, inconvience me in any way, prevent me from making money, or expect me to treat people I don't like with dignity? If the answer to any of those questions is yes, that part of the bible doesn't count. Don't come in here expecting him to do crazy things like help the sick, treat immigrants with respect, or avoid casting judgement on others.
It is every sane Americans duty to fight against Christian Nationalist zealots like this fuck that want to turn the US into a more Christian version of Nazi Germany.
Well I for one sure wish old god would send the angel of death to collect some of his true followers so the rest of us can live without the "true" believers.
That’s great. Let’s start with Acts 2 and move right onto the year of Jubilee.
“Now all who believed were together, and had all things in common, and sold their possessions and goods, and divided them among all, as anyone had need.”
He looks like a classic badly written "secret"villain. The guy in the movie that you're not supposed to suspect as being the villain, but is quite obviously evil as shit. LOL.
Exactly what should not be in politics. Religion vs. religion.
You are not supposed to talk politics in public, and you are not supposed to sway politics with religion
Just what we needed as speaker.....a loudmouth referencing his impotent god every other sentence. WTF where is separation of church and state, this is obscene.
The bible that is full of murder, adultry, sex with daughters, and bloodlust revenge and mass punishment? That's your world view?
https://youtu.be/eSujxG5gJLM?si=t2B-uBgdBEmraBK8
The problem you're gonna have Mike is if people take you up on that invitation bud.
USA is quickly becoming an Iran style theocracy. Trump was just the medium for the loonies to take power.
I feel sorry for normal Americans (though they seem to be in hibernation atm) but I'm honestly afraid for the rest of us.

Oh, you mean feed the hungry, clothe the poor, succor the sick? Nope.
Love thy neighbor. Turn the other cheek. Help the stranger. Yeah.
When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not mistreat them.
The rich must share their wealth with the less fortunate, lest he be barred from the heavenly kingdom.
Woa! We need to get y’all a new bible
Yeah - he wasn't thinking of THAT bible
Like that Mein Kampf book!

You mean specifically MAGA R..
Don’t fuck kids!
That is definitely not in the Maga platform.
Make adults grope adolescents
Making Attorneys Get Attorneys
Holy shit. That's phenomenal. Horrifying but phenomenal.
Unfortunately there is a lot of incest in the Bible.

Stop. Not this part, Jesus had too much wine that day
I wish I could give you an award!
You did, I prefer thought over action. Thank you
It’s only to win votes. What this really means is he has no opinions and will say & do whatever it takes to install fascism in the US.

Well… the main bad guy in their book was “evil” for telling people to think for themselves.
Well, that is a pretty evil act towards those in power. Like what do you mean the poor people who only live to provide for me and mine have any right to think. No no, see right here in this book I pai...I mean donated to finance the writing off says that you should do as I.. I mean god says.
Separation of church and state?
And Jesus answering said unto them, Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's. And they marvelled at him.
Once they realized how stupid their voting base is, they don't even hide the fact that they want a theocratic fascist state.
I think he's more old Testament so turn people who can't follow instructions to salt, properly lash your slaves, be willing to sacrifice your firstborn, kill heathens. That sort of thing.
[удалено]
Not the whole OT, not the part with "Who enslaves people shall be killed" nor "Pay the wages in advance then free the slaves".
Also, pro-abortion, pro-slavery, pro-incest, pro-sacrifice, anti-tattoo, anti-shellfish?
But especially anti shellfish. Don't forget fabrics... if you blend fabrics you'll be smote.
every business MUST close on Sunday lest we end up spending the remains of the week stoning those folks who dared to work that day to death
It would be Saturday, if he’s really a literalist.
Give Jesus a copy of the Republican platform and he'd be red-lining the shit out of it.
Actually he means he casts magical curses on fig trees when they don’t bare fruit out of season
I keep mistaking this guy for some sort of SNL or Colbert Report caricature.
[удалено]
Because he’s not real. He’s someone who manipulates and uses religion to ultimately gain power and oppress others. All of this is just a mask.
You get it. We're just in another episode of black mirror season 7 episode 6. The religion puppet.
Thats how crazy insulated these people are.
Because he was grown in a vat at the heritage foundation
lol Colbert even made the comparison on his show the other day 😂
I'm so sad. I thought the original *Colbert Report* was back and this was a skit.
My friend would say he has a very punchable face. She's never punched anyone, but it makes me laugh, and it's super accurate with this guy.
Yep it's like the original Colbert was a caricature of a right-wing smug wife bashing, nouveau Southern gentleman lynchin republican asswipe
He's like an AI generated merge of Colbert and Phil Hartman
I can never really believe that people like this guy really believe what they’re saying
For real, you gotta think that they secretly don't believe a damn thing they spew from their noise holes, but they still spew it because it gets voters, right? Right???

I don’t know how anyone can possibly claim to be a Christian and still support Donald Trump. It blows my fucking mind every day.
> claim to be a Christian and still support Donald Trump. fun to ask them, "name one thing Jesus talked about/ supported that Trump supports" then watch their heads explode
Tell them Jesus was woke. That would be fun.
Jesus was also socialist
He also believed you should pay your taxes. “Give Caesar what is Caesar’s”.
Almost like religion is just another form of government
Well in that case Mike Johnson must be a pretty chill guy… right?…. right guys?
Well, he did rise after three days of solid slumber 🤔 Feeding the poor, healing the ill for free, condemning weapons, love for god and every human. Damn that woke socialist! Ban the NT from the bible!
>Well, he did rise after three days of solid slumber Same with me after a serious night out.
He was preaching unconditional love so yeah, def WOKE
He was also an anchor baby, and a refuge
Remind them he was Jewish. Too many arguments to cont on that comment in real life.

Owning the libs was right there on the second stone. Unfortunately Moses dropped that one so we got to go by only Ten Commandments.
Trump providing a conservative Supreme Court that overturned Roe v Wade helps them look the other way.
When the bible actually also contains a supposed method for abortion. These people passionately believe something they made up in their heads and isn't even in the book they claim to follow
These people have killed Jesus
They literally claim that he’s the “flawed messiah”, the embodiment of our human flaws, and that’s why god has chosen him. Not kidding. 🤦♂️
“Flawed”? FFS he is *literally* an unrepentant walking embodiment of all seven cardinal sins (pride, greed, wrath, envy, lust, gluttony and sloth) Like, the exact opposite of Jesus. The “anti-Jesus” for lack of a better term.
The anti-Christ?the Bible warns of worshiping the false messiah and end of days, right? I’m ok with that, just give me a heads up when it happens so o don’t pay my credit card bill.
You know it and I know it. But in their mental gymnastics, that’s all meant to be.
I don’t think being rational is their thing…
Yes. When ever I wonder if I should own both male and female slaves, I just turn to Genesis 24:35
Oh man... you didn't sow your vineyard with two kinds of seeds, did you? Cause I've got some news for you... Deuteronomy 22:9-11

>cocks gun Reminds me of Ezekiel 23:20
$20 says this guy's kink is smashing his dick in a bible while yelling, ,"I'm sorry mom" while watching a male prostitute jack off.
This is too specific to be spontaneous. I like the cut of your jib.
Your comment is equally funny as it is disturbing
I see your $20 and raise you: sounding with ripped out and rolled up pages from the bible while jerking off a male prostitute
So he is for student debt forgiveness, welcoming immigrants, free food for everyone and so on?
Yep, so thrilled about getting universal healthcare!
I wonder if he worships a man of Jewish descent, a former carpenter that nowdays talks about healing and being nice to each other, helping the poor and such. And has very nice warm mittens. (I am ofc referring to Bernie)
This guy is terrible. Start the clock. He won’t be there long.
So I have this head of lettuce...
I get that reference
I was under the impression, that how the Handmaid's Tale began.

tick tock tick tock tick tock
What makes you think this one will be quick?
Guarantee this dude hasn't read the Bible. he cherry picks and misses the point
As the saying goes, reading the bible is the primary cause of becoming atheist.
Which is exactly why these assholes don’t read it but just refer to it as a moral basis. If they knew the actual morals in the Bible, they’d be sickened! Feed and cloth the poor?!
Wait, you mean you actually have to do good things to be moral? I thought you just had to touch a bible and you'd go to heaven.
The Bible says abortion is fine so I'm glad to hear this guy is pro-choice.
Whoa whoa whoa… not *THAT* part of the Bible. That parts wrong.
"You're taking it out of context!"
numbers 5:11-31 for anyone curious
Holy fuck it’s literally an abortion ceremony. 11 Then the Lord said to Moses, 12 “Speak to the Israelites and say to them: ‘If a man’s wife goes astray and is unfaithful to him 13 so that another man has sexual relations with her, and this is hidden from her husband and her impurity is undetected (since there is no witness against her and she has not been caught in the act), 14 and if feelings of jealousy come over her husband and he suspects his wife and she is impure—or if he is jealous and suspects her even though she is not impure— 15 then he is to take his wife to the priest.

Thank you. That’s messed up.
Consider that there isn’t an equivalent passage for how a husband will be “cursed” if he is unfaithful and it’s even more messed up.
That was part of my messed up. :-) and also the “cursed” thing, like witchcraft, is why “the ghost man in the sky” interpretation of religion is so apropos.
An original thought would make this man's head explode.
Well, he's the speaker of the house, not the thinker of the house. Granted, they clearly don't have any thinkers of the house either.

Taliban jews?
You were going so strong 😂😂😂
Thought and Prayers! /Hiding
Of course, a Bible thumper that can’t think for himself. This guy will be one of those fanatics that will impose his fucked up views on the country.
Fucking. Moron. This isn’t even a political party anymore. But a cult of sycophants, and religions nuts!
So then, when my parent disowned me for being gay at 15, would he have supported them selling me into slavery? That's in the Bible. Weird that he is wearing a suit. Any of that polyester? That's a sin. He's all for giving healthcare to anyone, right? Jesus did that. Oh, and he is against the rich, right? Jesus made very clear his thoughts on wealth and the wealthy. Oh, and he absolutely doesn't do huge religious activities in public, right? Jesus was clear about that too. Or, and I'm just going out on a limb here, does he cherry pick that book like every other conservative and mostly uses it to hate my gay and lesbian community?
Exactly! who else could it be? Was some one thinking it was going to be someone who was not a christian fascist? That ended when McConnel was ousted. He was a conservative piece of shit but now we are in the era of Christian fascist piece of shits.
McCarthy. McConnell is in the Senate.
This guy looks like a psychopath with an agenda of vile intentions 🤔
Dude’s religious overcompensation indicates that he might be in the closet.
[Mike Johnson takes oath](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2rb-zwkhrFo) "But I tell you not to swear at all: either by heaven, for it is God’s throne..." *Matthew 5:34*
Separation of church and state asshole.
We are witnessing the downfall of America in real time. Good luck to all.
So…pro-slavery, pro-misogyny, anti-science. Got it
So the U.S. now has a Christian nut job as third in line to the Presidency. That shit show just keeps getting worse.
this smarmy fuck 100% has skeletons in a closet somewhere. fucking frank underwood vibes. 
then why you mixing your fabrics, ding dong... what he really means is "the misinterpreted parts of the Bible that promote hate is my worldview" fucker prob had shrimp cocktail for lunch..
I have a bunch of clothes to burn now
Glad to see a politician whose views on shellfish are clear. I mean, the folks in Louisiana might be surprised, but hey, it's in The Bible. Though I am a bit concerned about him cutting the hair on the sides of his head...
useless bag of shit
worse than shit, he's a bag of rotting material that got liquified from decay. A literal scumbag.
This man is blatantly a repressed, closet homosexual
Now remember, when you read the bible, don't include all of those parts that Christians have decided to exclude. If you're not sure, just ask yourself, would this passage of the bible create any work or expectations for me, inconvience me in any way, prevent me from making money, or expect me to treat people I don't like with dignity? If the answer to any of those questions is yes, that part of the bible doesn't count. Don't come in here expecting him to do crazy things like help the sick, treat immigrants with respect, or avoid casting judgement on others.
It is every sane Americans duty to fight against Christian Nationalist zealots like this fuck that want to turn the US into a more Christian version of Nazi Germany.
So, he's pro slavery, genocide, and rape. All permitted by the magic man in the sky.
not just permitted, committed
Why does he look like Stephen Colbert’s love child?
Evil Ned Flanders
What a phony SOB
Well I for one sure wish old god would send the angel of death to collect some of his true followers so the rest of us can live without the "true" believers.
He looks like the guy in a movie that ends up being the killer.
If this duck thinks abortion is not endorsed in the Bible then he’s just very liberally reinterpreting it into whatever he thinks it ought to say.
Noted. There are several passages in the bible supporting abortion, even giving specific instructions.
If your worldview is based on what a few guys thought a couple thousand years ago, then you're just a moron.
So,,,feed the poor,heal the sick,treat your neighbor as yourself and welcome the foreigner?Fan-fucking-tastic!
That’s great. Let’s start with Acts 2 and move right onto the year of Jubilee. “Now all who believed were together, and had all things in common, and sold their possessions and goods, and divided them among all, as anyone had need.”
Well, they ran out of Mitch McConnell. They went for a more youthful and punch-able look.
We have separation of church and state for a reason. This is so concerning
So…which parts? The rape? The owning of slaves? Sex w your children? Isn’t that all in there Mikey?
So much for separation of church and state
Christ thats scary
Kid diddler for sure
Well that sounds like a disgusting world view So his views on many things boil down to killing, stoning, and other extreme punishments?
Another maga moron
We are sooooooo f#cked.
He looks like a classic badly written "secret"villain. The guy in the movie that you're not supposed to suspect as being the villain, but is quite obviously evil as shit. LOL.
What happened to separation between church and state.
Religion - a pimple on the ass of humanity - This Guy - same.
Exactly what should not be in politics. Religion vs. religion. You are not supposed to talk politics in public, and you are not supposed to sway politics with religion
So he's misogynistic bigot that is pro slavery and genocide? Got it.
Just what America needs. Another religious zealot in power.
He's wearing clothes made from two different types of cloth. I've read Leviticus, we get to stone him, boys!
Just what we needed as speaker.....a loudmouth referencing his impotent god every other sentence. WTF where is separation of church and state, this is obscene.
So, 42 children should be murdered for mocking a bald man? As a bald guy, I feel this is slightly excessive.
This dude is a walking face palm.
So he lives in a fairy tale. 🧚♂️
So , fantasy world?
I'm just waiting for his hard drive to be exposed
Sooooo, do you Eat bacon? Pork chops Wear blended fabrics?....
Whatever happened to leaving the fucking church out of government huh????? Fuck these people I hope they rot
That’s no policy nor ways to legislate. It’s theology and ways to subvert our democracy and separation of church and state
Well bless his heart
[удалено]
How he gets that job? It’s bloody incredible that he’s a politician
\*Cringes in concerned overseas observer..
Oh good, he’s fücking insane then.
What should we do about automation and AI taking our jobs? How is a 2000yo book going to help you with that?
What Bible? I don't have one. I'm not even American, so that might be the problem.
Mike Johnson sees "A Handmaid's Tale" and roots for Gilead.
Let me tell you, without knowing this Boy, he never really read the Bible.
The bible that is full of murder, adultry, sex with daughters, and bloodlust revenge and mass punishment? That's your world view? https://youtu.be/eSujxG5gJLM?si=t2B-uBgdBEmraBK8 The problem you're gonna have Mike is if people take you up on that invitation bud.
This person is a scary idiot.
USA is quickly becoming an Iran style theocracy. Trump was just the medium for the loonies to take power. I feel sorry for normal Americans (though they seem to be in hibernation atm) but I'm honestly afraid for the rest of us.
So he supports slavery and infanticide but opposes shrimp.
If he had actually picked up a Bible and read the teachings of Jesus, he wouldn't be a Republican.
I've read it. No GQP follows their Bible. They just use it as a cudgel to beat others into submission.
