Ay, indeed he is no true Scotsman.

Eh, it's different with him. He doesn't believe that he needs to ask God for forgiveness which is against the central tenets of just about every single christian denomination. He also can't even say the name of biblical books correctly.

It was obvious from jump that he's only done surface level pandering towards white christians (which is enough for them).

 

[Hollycat]

Is he mad at the Establishment clause?

 

[RoadHazard]

Uhm, what? How about we worship neither if we so choose?

(I'm not American, but that shit is fucking scary. "HERE IN AMERICA WE WORSHIP GOD, OR ELSE...")

 

[Aiii]

With every day that passes I wonder more and more how you are ever going to live this down, US.

 

[Bronx-Man]

Trump is so obviously an atheist which makes the pandering even mote pathetic.

 

[Brazil]

The US has always done a shitty job being a secular country, what with the whole "in God we trust" bullshit and the hand-in-the-Bible presidential oath.

It's exactly like how the electoral college system makes it a faux-democracy at best.

A country of facades.

 

[Fury451]

Trump is so obviously an atheist which makes the pandering even mote pathetic.

Yep. It's hilarious watching him try to talk about how important God is, how much faith matters, when it looks like he's barely able to choke the words out every single time. Anybody that thinks he's actually a believer in any of that is duping themselves.

 

[Anticol]

Great now all the religious people in America will forgive and ignore everything wrong Trumo did or will do from now on.

 

[ItIsOkBro]

trump's agenda today:
[x] pander to bigots
[x] pander to religious fundamentalists

up next, pander to climate change deniers?

 

[Cake Boss]

I am going to hold parties the day he gets arrested.

[Malvolio]

If you capitalize everything then the capital G loses all meaning!

 

[Killer Queen]

Ugh

This isn't what we deserve

Yes it is.

 

[Sheroking]

Eh, it's different with him. He doesn't believe that he needs to ask God for forgiveness which is against the central tenets of just about every single christian denomination. He also can't even say the name of biblical books correctly.

Selectively ignoring bits of the Bible is Christendom 101. As is severe ignorance of the Bible.

Gonna have to rule on the side of "he's a Christian, even if his priorities are not with religion".

 

[SomTervo]

What's with the little film camera emoji?

lolllll

 

[ZeoVGM]

Yes it is.

No, it isn't.

 

[Sunset Samurai]

Even God ain't fucking with you Trump. Don't bring Him into this

Nah. Someone that doesn't believe in the need for forgiveness is on some "I'm not a christian but I am spiritual" train of thought. Still, the fact that he was able to use that shallow catering to appeal to white christian voters shows that it worked.

All I'm saying is, it's pretty obvious this dude doesn't believe in anything other than himself and the gullibility of his voters.

Says the man who literally enshrines his name in gold on everything he touches.

Thou shalt have no other gods before me

Trump worships one person, himself.

 

[Codeblue]

I wonder if he just adds random punctuation and emojis to challenge his PR staff.

"I'm gonna tweet something really stupid, and you have to spin it using only this projector emoji".

 

[Extollere]

Religious conservatives believe that "secular liberals" actually idolize and worship the government, since they don't believe in God. This is also one of the reasons why conservatives are so opposed to things like universal health care. They view it as man acting like God and giving help to those who don't deserve it and don't believe in God. I am not even joking. I grew up with this kind of mentality all around me.

 

[Sunset Samurai]

"Yea White House? Tell Trump not to mention me thanks"

 

[CloudWolf]

Isn't seperation of church and state great? Man, it's so cool. Also, the entire freedom of religion thing that's literally part of the American constitution? Great stuff.

Too bad the 'Leader of the Free World' doesn't believe in it.

Yo Trump, Jesus has a response for you:

And he said to them, “Take care! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of possessions.” 16 Then he told them a parable: “The land of a rich man produced abundantly. 17 And he thought to himself, ‘What should I do, for I have no place to store my crops?’ 18 Then he said, ‘I will do this: I will pull down my barns and build larger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. 19 And I will say to my soul, Soul, you have ample goods laid up for many years; relax, eat, drink, be merry.’ 20 But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your life is being demanded of you. And the things you have prepared, whose will they be?’ 21 So it is with those who store up treasures for themselves but are not rich toward God.”

- Luke 12:13-21

This has nothing to do with the Christian faith.

Republicans rutinely use Christianity as an excuse for their hate.

Not my God.

 

[ZombiePlatypus]

Wrong.

Feast your eyes on the one true God!

Amazing. What is this from?

Like if christians dont hate others hahahaha

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

Amazing. What is this from?

The gif. in particular is from an anime, the Gintama movie, but it's basically a shot-for-shot recreation of an actual bumper that plays in Japanese theaters. It's fairly memetic in Japan.

 

[bionic77]

God it sucks living in a joke country.

I feel bad for criticizing poorly run fascist shitholes in the past. Its different when you are on the inside.

 

[Dishwalla]

So much for that "freedom" thing I hear so much about.

 

[InfiniteBento]

My mouth dropped reading that tweet

WHAT THE FUCK

 

[pelicansurf]

Amazing. What is this from?

Gintama, I believe.

Also, the emoji in the tweet makes it even more insane.

 

[Windam]

Lots of assholes go to church.

This one believes God wants him to be rich and powerful!

He wouldn't be president if God didn't will it!

 

[Maximo]

Dam hes really chucking a hissy fit isn't he?

 

[CaviarMeths]

That's a pretty hard swing at the Evangelical fence after his early tweets today pissed off pretty much the entire remaining population of the US.

Trump's tweets are usually reactionary though. Did I miss a great surge lately of government-worship? I mean besides the usual crowd that deifies that R party.

 

[Super Moop]

With every day that passes I wonder more and more how you are ever going to live this down, US.

We already can't. Even when he's out of power, it's a scar that will never be easy to hide (assuming rational people aren't wiped out from the world).

 

[Unit 33]

AND SOON WE SHALL BE ONE

Jesus, it's terrifying innit.

 

[Unbounded]

Who the hell is "we"?

 

[WriterGK]

Can someone tell me. People who live in the US? What have you guys noticed and been through first hand since Trump started his Presidency? Friends/family losing jobs? Getting deported? Losing savings money? What is actually different concrete as to before he became President?

 

[DrkSage]

AND SOON WE SHALL BE ONE

You inspire your men to worship such vile smut!? YOU HERETIC!

Here lies the one and only

 

[KingSnake]

The Far Cry 5 viral marketing has gone too far.

 

[KZXcellent]

No, it isn't.

Yeah I don't get the responses saying "we deserve this"

I didn't vote for this douchebag. Going by the popular vote most didn't.

 

[Androidsleeps]

Yeah something's gonna happen/drop soon

 

[freethoughtbubble]

First post ftw.

 

[NickWright]

We love Gilead

 

[rjinaz]

So much for that "freedom" thing I hear so much about.

You're free to believe in Christianity or GET OUT!

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Remember when people were talking about him only pretending to be religious to win the election...

Good times, good times.

 

[OrlanisWorks]

 

[Nameless]

We love Gilead

Blessed be the fruit

 

[Zolo]

Remember when people were talking about him only pretending to be religious to win the election...

Good times, good times.

That's still true. He's still campaigning.
