Bob was a praying Christian. He graduated to glory on Feb 10th. He left the 100+ million dollar company to his employees. The workers created the value. He paid them their just wages. Be like Bob.

The Babylon bee guys unleashed a hoard of trolls on me — and I learned one thing: they all want Jesus to tell them it’s ok to kill. The American myth of redemptive violence is alive and well. Their violence-addled brains fantasize about murdering all the time. So scared.

Pastors, encourage your congregants to use the church building for their major life functions. Not just weddings, but birthday parties, family reunions, graduation parties. don’t charge them anything. In fact sponsor part of the party. Pay for the piñata‘s. thank me later.

Hamas killed 1200 people - most of them civilians. Israel has since killed 1800-2900 Palestinians - most of them civilians. If you can’t say both of those things are evil and wrong, as a Christian, I’m not sure we’re reading the same book.

Tell your church/pastor if you’re leaving and going to another church. They hold a place in their hearts and minds for you as one they are spiritually guiding. When you leave without saying anything it creates confusion and anxiety.

Sodom and Gomorrah is not about homosexuality. This story is a great litmus test for a religious figure. If they think the primary issue isn’t hospitality, than they: (1) haven’t sufficiently studied and/or (2) are too shaped by western culture wars and/or (3) pornified brain
