Ramasmarmy saying whatever he thinks the Republican base wants to hear. So weird seeing him bet all in on a base that despises him.

That’s fucking dumb, people kill each other over religion every single day in staggering numbers. Maybe they can institute a program that has speakers from the IRA and the Taliban come in to talk about strong faith.
I cant believe grown adults believe in fairy tales, it’s absolute insanity.
At the end of Peter Pan, the Lost Boys along with Wendy and the other kids are tied to a mast while Captain Hook monologues at them. Peter has pushed Tinkerbell away, and she's fading out of existence. It seems all hope is lost.
But then Peter gets an idea and begins to chant. "I do believe in fairies, I do, I do." Soon, they're all chanting it together. "I DO believe in fairies! I DO I DO!"
And Tinkerbell pops back into existence to save the day. This is what faith is. The idea that if you believe in something hard enough it will pop into existence.
Of course, it's a fantasy story for children. I can't believe grown adults think it's true, either. It's absolute insanity, agreed. But that's where Republicans have to meet their constituents, who apparently live in Never Never Land.
This guy is an even bigger shill than Turd Cruz. He made his money in pharma, his wife is a physician. And yet here he is shilling for FaiTH BaSeD CuRE.
Fuck off Vivek
Fuck George W Bush forever for popularizing "faith based" as a euphemism for people forcing their religion on others.
Religion is a mental illness.
Religion is about control and people exploiting this are 100% sane and know exactly what they're doing. That's the scary part.
Religion is about control
Turns out that if you can convince people that unless they behave in a certain way and follow a specific set of rules, they'll be dropped into a burning lake of fire when they die, they are pretty easy to manipulate.
Just what we need, another fake ass politician, billionaire, douche bag lying to Christians.
So you treat mental illness with another form of mental illness?
I'm so sick of these narcissistic cunts who will say and do virtually anything for attention and graft.
YOU started a pharmaceutical company. Shut the fuck up. Your face is as big as Charlie's. Seriously, there must be some sort of correlation between right-wing vitriol and small faces because holy fuck.
lol. Nobody trusts a right winger.
So now these dipshits are unironically and very seriously borrowing from the Scientology playbook…? And here I thought religion in America couldn’t get any worse.
Bruh isn't his wife a doctor lmao
I'm sure there are plenty of doctors with little to no respect/understanding of mental health.
Only someone who is (probably) comfortably insulated from the reality that real people face in crises could say something so inane
It’s kind of like the joke “if alternative medicine worked, it would just be called medicine”.
A faith-based approach could also be called a hypothesis-based approach: the only thing that distinguishes it from a scientific approach is that it is a hypothesis that either hasn’t been tested or has failed the scientific method.
So his big plan is to just tell everyone, "Y'all need Jesus!"?
It always amuses me when people try to recommend faith or faith based healing to cure their medical or mental health problems.
How is faith based healing any different from using the placebo effect on someone by giving them a sugar pill and telling them it'll help cure their illness? Only difference I can see is you are replacing the pill with God, another placebo.
He’s worse than being a card-carrying member of the religious right, he’s an ass-kissing suck-up to the religious right.
So we can safely infer he's not appropriately medicated? That explains a lot.
Sir you have a minority religion in this country. Do you think religion is irrelevant to this or are you hoping a bunch of Americans get shipped off to Vishnu camp when we get depressed?
