KILL THE TRANNIES AND THE GAYS!!! It says to do so in Leviticus.
-Republicans, soon probably.
A small sacrifice to save Gaza.
It’s not a zero-sum game.
Fuck you and your religion.
I’ll bet that Lindsey Graham (“Mee-maws little warmonger”) is secretly conflicted right now.
What page of the Bible does it say to treat people like shit and force your religion on everyone?
I think its a twisted reading of the book of Matthew, which says:
If your right eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out and throw it away from you. For it is more profitable for you that one of your members should perish, than for your whole body to be cast into Gehenna.
-Matthew 5:29
So, if the LGBTQ+ people cause them to stumble, they’ll cut them down. This is compounded by Leviticus (old testament verse they REALLY care about), which says:
If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
-Leviticus 20:13
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion”
It’s right there in the first line of the Bill of Rights.
Right, so they’ll just do it without Congress.
Have they even done anything in Congress? Seems like all of their policies have been dictated by the orange absolute monarch.
Voted stuff down is about it
what? you want these people to read now?
if they didnt read the whole bible they sure arent gonna read the whole constitution.
The jokes on everyone who still acts as though they’re dealing with rational people in good faith, instead of mentally ill religious extremists, sociopaths, psychopaths, and pedophiles.
Whether they were inherently susceptible, or indoctrinated through psychological warfare, is largely irrelevant. You can’t deprogram tens of millions of people, especially while the propaganda apparatus remains.
Oh good, they were looking for that quote. Ran out of toilet paper again.
You think they’d notice it eventually. It comes around on the roll at least once a week.
Funny that you expect these assholes to read.
In case you haven’t noticed already, the American government is run by a bunch of fascist that don’t care about the rules (they only pretend to when it’s convenient).
But don’t you understand that gay people merely existing prevents these people from pursuing their own religion, which includes the serene knowledge that the entire world is like them?? /s
Right, DOJ isn’t Congress tho
DOJ didn’t exist when the Constitution was written. Courts have long determined that this applies to any state or federal institution.
That was those courts, we’ve got these courts.
Ugh, I hate how right you are.
the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion - John Adams
We’ll see about that
-Conservatives, historically and today
Tell that to Homelander
they claim to be but dont ACTUALLY follow the church nor the Bible
Does anyone remember the New Testament verse where Jesus tells the gay people to all fuck off and that his followers should persecute them? All I remember is him clearly saying to ‘love thy neighbors’ a lot - pretty gay tbh.
I did read the bible many decades ago, can’t remember any such verses - will admit it was a total snooze fest though, so I might’ve missed it or forgotten.
Wasn’t there also that bit about “the Disciple that Jesus loved”?
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Their interpretation of the Bible is just as valid as anybody else’s.
Edit: Oof, I must have upset the hardcore Christians. Why else would you downvote this comment?
Correct. And that validity is “zero” or “none.”
It’s a book of fables that enables evil people to do evil. No need to comment back, you can’t change my mind on this.
In all seriousness, what did you actually think I meant by my comment? We are basically saying the same thing. But somehow you act like you’re disagreeing with my comment.
Not sure why you think I would try to change your mind.
I didn’t downvote you, but no… Not really. And people are probably downvoting you just because you’re wrong.
Like if someone said their interpretation of the bible is ‘that we should all trebuchet kittens at the sun during eclipses’ they would be treated as idiots - because that claim has no backing.
Its a book full of fables, correspondence, parables, and accounts of history. It’s not written to be highly interpretive - it’s written to be proscriptive. That some people twist its wording for their own political or ideological interpretations is something that should always be called out - if they’re claiming to be followers of Jesus and their core religious text contradicts them - that’s ridiculous, and it’s pathetic that a lot of people go along with it unchallenged.
P.s. not Christian BTW.
I think you and I are in agreement about the end result. Fact is, people can and do validate their shitty beliefs using the Bible all the time. Just because your opinion is that they are wrong doesn’t change reality.
When your foundation is built on fairy tales, anything goes.
You think it won’t be women next? Then nonwhites? Then non-christians? Then the Final Solution?
We’ve seen this movie before.
You think it won’t be women next? Then nonwhites? Then non-christians? Then the Final Solution?
Last hired, first fired
then the catholics
… they use a similar logic. First we accept this lifestyle? Then we require it? Before you know it, we will depopulate ourselves into an extinction.
Here’s what the article says:
Among its findings, the report targets a 2024 rule which required foster care providers who wanted to receive designated placement status for caring for LGBTQ+ children to receive training on the needs of LGBTQ+ youth, help queer kids access to age-appropriate healthcare resources, and “commit to establishing an environment that supports the child’s LGBTQI+ status or identity.
As impactful and significant as these programs seem, revoking them doesn’t sound like a Holocaust in the making. Are gay children so different from straight children that their care requires a training program?
Such a long winded way to say “I’m an idiot” lol
It just seems like the policies being revoked are more virtue signaling than anything else. Both parties are virtue signalling. It’s meaningless rhetoric; nothing was achieved.
You know what would be awesome for the gay community? Free healthcare, legal pot, a well-funded Social Security system. They benefit from the same things that benefit everyone else.
Debts higher than the GDP, better worry about how many genders there are. Conservative be dumb as rocks
They don’t care about the debt. Unless Democrats are in power. Then they pretend it matters.
As long as someone else is footing the bill they don’t care. Until it personally affects them.
Christians are assholes and morons
All religions are backwards and brain rot.
The “best” religious people are those that follow as little of the made up bullshit as possible.
Oh I agree. I just particularly dislike Christians.
Any religious fundamentals is basically a lunatic to me. Islamic Isis or the Christian Trump death cult, they are going to be the end of civilization if we don’t stand up to them
Why?//cause America has fucking crazy ones.
then you dislike american christians end of story
Its a long story lol
th DOJ is not the catholic church
Anti-Christian is a good thing … better yet, anti-religion.
If trump is the messiah, I want to hear from the other bloke.
anti american protestants?
I dunno. Buddhism seems to be doing well. The Dali Lama doesn’t seem to advocate for this.

I’m a Christian, and I hate this movement so much. I want to hate the people, trust me, but Jesus said to love, so I must. Seriously though, separation of church and state, now please.
Part of loving someone is holding them accountable for their own actions and behavior. Growth is not possible without accountability
Amen to that. I do my best to have meaningful conversations where I can.
You should check out John Fugelsang, he just released a book “The Separation of Church and Hate” and he has a podcast. He is a comedian, and his father was a Franciscan friar and his mother was a Carmelite nun so he’s got a really interesting background.
He also has a bunch of resources (including materials for churches) on how to reclaim actual bible based Christianity with compassion instead of whatever we have now.
Sweet! Thanks for the recommendation, it’s in my quick notes that I sort through on Sundays.
He looks and sounds like Banana Ballistics’ brother yo
I want to hate the people, trust me, but Jesus said to love, so I must.
Imagine being this cucked by something with zero evidence of existing
That’s kinda the whole point of faith. If there was evidence, faith wouldn’t be nearly as powerful.
powerful
Lol is that what they told you? Ok bud.
imagine seeing love and going “PORNOGRAPHIC PHRASE” you are just as brainrotted as the skibidi toilet kids
there is a bunch of evidence but you dont like it
Yeah, I didn’t mean it sexually but OK
If you’ve got evidence of a Christian god, then you should submit that shit to the Nobel committee and claim your prize.
the shroud of turin?
Lol are you serious?
indeed
its not the job of the government to obey Christian values. its the job of the government to protect its people, and if those people are gay, the government is OBLIGATED to make their life better like any other citizen.
In a class-based system like capitalism, the state (cops, courts, military, ICE, etc.) exists to maintain the rule of one class over another, in this case the capitalist class. American neo-liberalism has served the capitalists’ interests well for the last few decades, but it is no longer. They need to tighten their grip because they are losing ground economically (to China, specifically).
This is when you see every effort to divide (weaken) and repress the working masses. Minoritized people and leftists are the first to be repressed - they are easy targets because the capitalists and the media outlets spend billions propagandizing the working masses to turn against these groups. This is when you see right wing reaction - as we are seeing now, not just in the US, but in many of the capitalist countries that are allies with US imperialism. This is a cycle that keeps repeating in every capitalist crisis.
It is in the interests of the whole working class - internationally - to recognize this tactic used to divide the working masses (which will lead to even lower quality of life for all) and to instead stand up against this repression and to defend people on the receiving end of US Imperialist aggression, whether this be workers, minorities, and/or countries (Iran, Cuba, etc.).
Meanwhile, the sheep and the goats part just gets ignored
34 “Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. 35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’
37 “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’
40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’
I’m sure they’ll do some backflips to say “the brothers only mean people I like”, but then there’s the “who is my neighbor?” part.
29 But wanting to vindicate himself, he said to Yeshua, “Then who is my neighbor?”
30 Yeshua replied, “A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho. He was attacked by robbers, who stripped him and beat him. Then they left, abandoning him as half dead. 31 And by chance, a kohen was going down that road; but when he saw the man, he passed by on the opposite side. 32 Likewise a Levite also, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the opposite side. 33 But a Samaritan who was traveling came upon him; and when he noticed the man, he felt compassion. 34 He went up to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on olive oil and wine. Then setting him on his own animal, he brought him to a lodge for travelers and took care of him. 35 The next day he took out two denarii[b] and gave them to the innkeeper, saying, ‘Take care of him. And whatever else you spend, upon my return I will repay you myself.’ 36 Which of these three seems to you a neighbor to the one attacked by robbers?”
37 And he said, “The one who showed mercy to him.”
Then Yeshua said to him, “Go, and you do the same.”
But they’re not sincere, so the text doesn’t matter.
If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall surely be put to death; their blood is upon them.
-Leviticus 20:13
^ The only part of the bible they care about.
That one is really about having sex with kids. The wording was supposed to be “boys” not “men”. It is saying to be a pedophile.
As if putting the victims to death is any better
GOP: Not like that!
Romans also talks about homosexuality and why it is a sin
but we shouldnt KILL homosexual people like WHAT
They’re foaming at the mouth with their hate, and they drool over the possibility of killing the gays. They want this back:
I hope they turn to Christ.
See, that’s the thing. They think they are on Christ’s side (or he’s on their side). The Bible is the absolute word of God, so they think there’s a divine mandate to kill the gays and, if the trinity thing means Jesus = God, the divine mandate from Christ is to kill the gays.
Also gay sex is icky to them, so there’s an extra bit to justify killing the gays.
Honestly, I’m surprised that we haven’t seen a Spanish-Inquisition on this yet, but I’m sure Republicans are working up to it.

Yet again, the side that screams FREEDOM only wants to take everyone else’s away.
For them it’s “freedom to,” not “freedom from.” As in, free to exploit, free to abuse, free to dominate instead of freedom from exploiters, freedom from abusers, or freedom from domination.
For FREEDOM!™ they sure want to know what you’ve got and doing in your pants.
Especially childrens pants
