Not that I agree with this, but now that this is possible, could the Vatican (at least for those churches that take orders from it) force a US wide political stance? Don’t let individual churches have their own choice as only the pope knows what’s best for America?
Most christians in the US are not Catholic, least of all the evangelist nutjobs
I wonder if those evangelists can unify more people to a candidate than all the Catholics though.
They just did didn’t they?
Before the election, the catholic church only said something like “Americans have a tough choice. One side wants to harm immigration, and the other side wants to restore abortions.”
I guess yeah, that kind of reads like they are saying to choose Trump. But the church is pretty tired of Trump already, so if they actually wanted to endorse whomever was on the ballot against him, I feel like they together have more members than the fractured message that could come from all the Protestant churches. Unless somehow all the Protestant churches all agreed they liked Trump. Usually the Protestant churches are not all on the same page though.
No I’m saying that evangelicals already did.
John Oliver did it.
We can just join his church, call his show televised sermons.
Literally, why the fuck not?
Our legal system is now Whose Line Is It Anyway?:
The rules are made up and the points don’t matter.
Anyway, praise be to the one true prophet Oliver, blessed be his name, the only man personally touched by the noodly appendage of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, the one well-intentioned of the Eldritch Gods, who resides most of the time inside a teapot orbiting the Sun between Mercury and Venus.
Tax religion
Just tax all money-collecting organizations uniformly. The constitution specifies that laws can’t be made respecting religion, so it’s unconstitutional to carve out tax exemptions for churches.
Just what they needed. The last century of progress toward equality (which seems to have stalled) was feeling pretty oppressive to those fragile bastards.
It’s not like they enforced the rule to begin with. In the entire history of the US, only one church has lost tax exempt status because of it.
only one church has lost tax exempt status because of it.
I’m going to guess they weren’t GOP flavored Christianity?
No shit? It really was a different time back then.
That was my thought exactly. Those that will already were but it is sad that it’s getting more official.
So when are sacrafices coming back???
ICE is working on it
Yeah, a Canadian that lived in Flordia for 20ish years died under their “supervision”
We’ve been sacrificing people to supply-side Jesus for a good long while.
Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, at least make a buck from it.
We’re also sacrificing children to 2A White Jesus.
That tree of liberty is looking mighty parched
Pretty sure it is on fire atm just like the weather. Billionaires fucking everyone
