Jesus: treat others with respect, love, peace.

Trump: make money by scamming people, blame others for your mistakes, start wars, prosecute minorities.

Yeah, Trump gets it.

The man doesn't even know how to hold a book correctly, and there's plenty of evidence to suggest he may actually be functionally illiterate. I highly doubt he's read a single verse of the bible.

"I am a reality denying whore!"

[-] ramenshaman@lemmy.world 7 points 3 hours ago

Then ask him to recite literally any bible verse.

[-] No1@aussie.zone 5 points 3 hours ago

"You shall not put the Trump, your God, to the test."

[-] stumu415@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 hours ago

Hahahaha wawahahaha

[-] HugeNerd@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 hours ago

All religion is mental illness. But nothing gives me the heebie-jeebies more than "christian pastor". UGH

[-] Lushed_Lungfish@lemmy.ca 10 points 5 hours ago

Sorry but the words of a pedophile carry little weight with me.

[-] glitch1985@lemmy.world 8 points 4 hours ago

You referring to the pastor or Trump?

[-] AbidanYre@lemmy.world 8 points 4 hours ago

Megachurches are a cancer on society.

[-] Professorozone@lemmy.world 10 points 6 hours ago

Dude didn't even know there was a new and old testament.

[-] Taleya@aussie.zone 4 points 5 hours ago

Most Americans don't,, based on their religious rantings

Atleast my stock in Orville Redenbacher is doing well...

[-] trackball_fetish@lemmy.wtf 5 points 5 hours ago

The Bible? No. My struggle? Yes.

[-] PunkRockSportsFan@fanaticus.social 27 points 8 hours ago

All religious people are liars.

But none so insidious and morally depraved as the American Christian.

You know Donny trump can't read for shit, He can't grasp even Bluey, that's why He summarizes and ad libs everything, He couldn't read an SNL scritp

[-] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 5 points 6 hours ago

thats bullshit of course.

[-] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 15 points 8 hours ago

So these people are stupid, of course.

They are not THAT stupid

They know what they're saying

They know it's all bullshit

They are also a pastor

This means that this pastor is full of shit and he knows it

He knows he's evil yet continues preaching for trump

This guy literally is the guy that imaginary bible warns about

And all "Christians" are following him because of course

[-] cranakis@reddthat.com 4 points 5 hours ago

Makes you wish it were real, just so he'd go to hell.

[-] FoxtrotDeltaTango@sh.itjust.works 2 points 8 hours ago

This unfortunately, these American Christian evangelicals are also chuds

[-] kinther@lemmy.world 100 points 12 hours ago

All I want to know is when the church will start booting these guys to the curb and denouncing them.

[-] KnitWit@lemmy.world 95 points 12 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago)

He’s an evangelical, so the only requirement he has is saying ‘I’m a pastor.’ This particular one already has a litany of controversial quotes and, like many evangelicals, is staunchly anti-catholic, calling them a satanic Babylonian cult at one point.

[-] adespoton@lemmy.ca 47 points 12 hours ago

Is this the same guy who just did a blessing of a golden statue of Trump, insisting it wasn’t a golden calf?

[-] KnitWit@lemmy.world 48 points 12 hours ago

Different guy, same ilk.

[-] zr0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 8 hours ago

Well, everyone who calls him a Christian, is the issue. He is a sect leader.

[-] one_old_coder@piefed.social 26 points 12 hours ago

It may seem obvious but the guy is a pastor, not a catholic. The pope does not exist in his world.

I guarantee dumbass has read no more than 100 words of the bible, and not necessarily consecutive words.

[-] bender223@lemmy.today 8 points 8 hours ago
[-] zeppo@lemmy.world 40 points 12 hours ago

What’s Donald Trump’s favorite book or passages from the Bible? “All of them”. New or old Testament? “Both”. It’s deeply personal though, so he won’t say.

This deluded loser is just as demented as Trump is and Trump barely understands breathing, so as long as it doesn't involve raping children he doesn't understand anything.

[-] blarth 22 points 12 hours ago

These people are literally insane.

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 11 points 12 hours ago

They're salesmen.

What they're saying is only "crazy" if it fails to move units. And this guy seems to have been very successful at moving merch

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 14 points 12 hours ago

Is there anything more Protestant than worshipping a golden calf, then getting mad when someone suggests that might be heresy.

[-] treehugger6@lemmy.world 14 points 12 hours ago

And then people are surprised by decreasing church attendance. I'm glad I'm an atheist

Is the pastor able to read ancient Hebrew and ancient Greek and understand the original context? Otherwise he doesn't understand the bible either, and that would be assuming he had actually read it in full himself. Trump himslf doesn't have an understanding of even 'see Spot run!'.

It's also funny because there's no way to understand the Bible better or worse.

What a weird world we live in.

[-] sun_is_ra@sh.itjust.works 8 points 4 hours ago

There is! For example if someone like Peter Hegseth study bible by watching hollywood gangster movies, they tend to understand the bible less than a person who actually read it.

[-] tacoplease@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Everything about the Bible I learned from The Boondocks Saints:

"And Shepherds we shall be For Thee my Lord, for Thee Power hath descended forth from Thy hand Our feet may swiftly carry out Thy commands. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In nomine Patri, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti."

[-] mechoman444@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Dang. You're right. You can always count on idiots to do idiotic things.

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
