The former billionaire, who inherited a coal mining business from his father, presides over a state where 29% of residents are on Medicaid
When Senator Jim Justice of West Virginia was asked about the Senate Republicans’ newly released portion of the proposed spending bill that requires parents of children older than 14 to work for Medicaid, he said, “biblically, we are supposed to work.”
It’s weird how Christian dominionists never mention the Jubilee. You’re supposed to forgive all debts every seven (edit: 7 sets of 7, 49) years, and you can’t really own land - God does.
The only parts they read in Leviticus are the ones about killing gays though.
That verse you posted said 7x7 years, so every 49 years, with one year off after, so a 50 year cycle. Then I guess they “buy” land throughout the next 50 year cycle based on how many years remain. Ie, if it’s 25 years into the cycle, the price for a field might be half off. Not a terrible system really, for the age. At the end of the cycle, it all goes back to the “clan” to be resold again.
They certainly skipped 18? 19? where it directs people to treat foreigners in your land like the native born.
yeah and “biblically” we’re supposed to be feeding, clothing, washing, and housing the homeless as Jesus commanded. We’re supposed to be taking care of the ill, as Jesus commanded. We’re supposed to “love thy neighbour” and treat everyone, regardless of their gender, race, sexual orientation, equally as Jesus commanded.
But of course we’re not doing any of that and according to the Bible and Jesus that’s an instant ticket to “Hell”.
If Heaven exists it must be a fairly empty place.
Imagine being responsible for hurting so many people and turning around and think you’re a good Christian quoting Bible crap. I wish Jesus was real and coming soon, so he could slap you in the face. This is not what he meant (or the writers of what he said about loving each other, anyway).
If Jesus was real and did come back we’d probably never know because he would get deported and die in a Salvadorian torture prison.
Imagine the irony if Bethlehem is his set spawning point and every time he tries to return he ends up getting murdered by Israel before he can form a coherent sentence.
No, JESUS. You know, white Jesus.
Jesus? Sounds Mexican, he wouldn’t last a day.
Soon we’ll all be Trumptians anyway once he invades the Vatican and elects himself Pope.
Or put back on a cross. To paraphrase the comic about aliens asked about knowing Jesus, “Yes, he always comes back around to visit every year or so. We gave him donuts. What did you guys do?”
most of these “Christians” only go to EVANGELICAL churces/ televangelists. they dont go to just normal ones, it almost always are these politically connected churches.
Piss on your shitty book.
Jesus Christ, famously against feeding and healing the poor.
Any politician who publicly states that their religion should be the basis of any law should immediately be [redacted] multiple times in the face with a 12 gauge [redacted]
Yes, these politicians should be redacted.
think biblical, on a cross, crucified.
Yeah sure. It also says we are supposed to be stewards of the earth and take care of each other as if we are brothers and sisters. Yet they push legislation to destroy the earth under our “biblical” care and treat others like criminals and garbage. But please go on with your corperate bullshit. The Bible says not to take the lords name in vein. That doesn’t mean shouting “god fucking damnit” when you stubborn your pinky toe. I means using your diety as the reason for entirely unbiblical bullshit. So, basically, go fuck yourself dude.
Amen
You first.
Fuck you. Murder me outright.
Which Bible? The Pimp’s Bible?
Nah… even Pimp Jesus would back hand this motherfucker
And then Pimp Jesus was chillin with his homies, as it was written by the playas,
Verily I say unto thee, let the motherfucker who says we don’t all deserve free universal healthcare,
Verily may he receive a back handed bitch slap across the face, not one time, but one time again for His dead homies, for this is pleasing unto Him,
Biblically, this man is going to hell.
The face of hard work:
He looks dead and soulless behind that veneer smile.
Why aren’t these rich assholes able to buy cloths that fit?
I know it’s a side issue to their evil, but it doesn’t make any sense.
“I’m going to wear an expensive suit, but you’re too poor for me to allow you to take my measurements”
He’s at an age where his body is changing rapidly in unexpected ways. It will happen to you, again.
Obviously he misspoke. He meant to say “you”.
“Don’t rob the poor just because you can, or exploit the needy in court. For the LORD is their defender. He will ruin anyone who ruins them.”
Proverbs 22:22-23
I’m… Honestly unsure if you’re kidding or not

Depends on the translation ofc but yeah that’s really what it says
He needs to start doing some ruining then. He can start by having Venice sink into the sea during the Bezos wedding, wiping out many of the worst Sociopathic Oligarchs of the world.
That would be one hell of a recruiting move, for any deity that feels low on converts.
It doesn’t sound like he has worked a day in wretched life.
Jim Justice Has worked really hard at screwing over everyone who is not a billionaire.
