1. hey..ya know there's a biblical saying you should familiarize yourself with

“Why worry about the speck in your brothers eye when you fail to remove the log in your own.”

So many child abusing priests yet you shelter and hide them..hypocrite!

[Laelth]

2. Tax 'em, indeed. That crosses the line. n/t

3. Such moral people, supporting a racist, sexist, and bigot in the WH. Sexual morality? Don't make

me puke. Would this so called bishop like to explain to us about the cover up of the molestation of children for so long before he starts to lecture ANYBODY about morality?

5. The Dominionists and Reconstructionists have been aiming for this....

6. Why wouldn't a Christian Theocracy

focus on the Beatitudes?

12. Anyone with even a slight familiarity with history

knows how Christians behave, whenever they have the political power to force their religious ideas upon the population.

19. I always asked them that

Why wouldn't a Christian theocracy tax the rich and give it all to the poor?

And it is harder for a rich man to go to heaven than a camel to go through the eye of a needle, so why wouldn't anyone who thought they might be getting rich be eager to get rid of the extra money?

7. Because those types of societies have always worked out so well in history, haven't they?

11. Bishop Joseph Edward Strickland:

Joseph Edward Strickland is an American prelate of the Roman Catholic Church. Since his consecration on November 28, 2012, he has been the Bishop of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Tyler, Texas.

The majority of Catholic voters cast their ballots for Trump in 2016. According to recent polls, he's lost some of his Catholic support. It appears that Bishop Strickland isn't happy with that state of affairs.

9. These were the kind of Christians that burned people

at the stake . They are extremely dangerous.

[Klaralven]

10. Christ was conceived out of wedlock, hung out with a bunch of guys, and a questionable woman....

13. look to YOUR 'president' bish....he's as immoral as a man can get, yet you love him

FUCKING HYPOCRITES

[gratuitous]

15. So, nothing about feeding the hungy, clothing the naked or any of that boring Jesus stuff?

A country with so much wealth concentrated in the hands of so few and that can't feed and house its own citizens really seems to have a lot of hard things said and done against it by God, according to the Bible. Jesus had a lot of hard things to say to those who tithed their pinch of spice in conformance with their version of morality while neglecting the weightier matters of the law.

Mene mene tekel upharsin, Bishop.

16. Trump is so Biblical he has married three times. And he has concubines.

He even bought a concubine for his son.

17. Fuck him and the horse he currently rides.

18. While they sit there behind their closed doors

often abusing their non obedient wives.
