• The Trump Prophecy: The President was elected by the hand of God (in theaters)

Now, I may be an apostate, but I think they might actually be on to something. I do remember a biblical prophesy that Trump fits really well. Something about a great manipulator and liar, living in a golden tower, seducing the faithful with promises of worldly power, despite clearly being no man of god himself. Seems like a bang-on depiction to me. If I remember the prophecy right, we should be coming up on the Opening of the First Seal, a white horse upon which rides Conquest.
That's what I've been thinking. I seem to recall all kinds of people being accused of being the anti-Christ, from Sadam to Clinton(s) to Obama. I wonder what all these people have in common?
Isn't this propaganda? Like...he's basically it's saying he's a god or atleast close to one for God to choose him...how the fuck can anyone not see this man for the anti-freedom, anti-American monster he is. How. HOW.
So God picked two of the most unlikable presidential candidates in history for both parties, then chose the one that's more incompetent (as opposed to malicious) and more memeworthy. Thanks, God.
God works in mysterious ways. Praise be.
Trump is too dumb to be the antichrist. His cult is more-or-less the result of education defunding and other stuff gone out-of-control and creating drone-like people who can't think for themselves. Calling him the antichrist is just ignoring the scope of what led dumb people who support Trump to become this stupid and malleable.
I think Chaos Spawn would be more appropriate for Trump instead of Anti-Christ.
The key thing a lot of you not aware of is that American Evangelicalism hasn't really been a religion, let alone Christianity, since the mid 20th century, when William F. Buckley and other conservatives came up with the genius idea to turn Evangelicals into a reliable Republican voting block by getting them angry about abortion (many mainstream denominations were actually pro-choice back in the first half of the 20th century). Ever since then, Evangelicalism has been a political movement first and foremost. That's why they can vote for a person as bad as Trump and not feel a tinge on their conscience - because they don't give a shit who he is as long as he promises to enact their legislative agenda. Said agenda, of course, being theocracy. Seriously, look up Christian Reconstructionism/Dominionism (Hi, Mike Pence!). They know exactly what they're doing.
6/10 americans believe in atleast one of these. https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/279792/b4087638-9a8e-41f1-b5cc-e9848790fdb8/image.png http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2018/10/01/new-age-beliefs-common-among-both-religious-and-nonreligious-americans/
Look, I'm all for people participating in religious activities and lifestyles, but how can someone not believe physics let alone 59% of people who participated in this poll? Do they think when they drop something that it's falling because God willed it? I don't even think people who lived hundreds of years ago doubted that physics was an actual thing, so why now?
Social media destroyed the ability for people to learn new things that confict with their existing beliefs, they created unbreakable echo chambers for profit.
Psychics. I misread it too.
They have a lot in common. They're both completely insane.
Oh fuck. Well that's both slightly embarrassing and immensely relieving at the same time.
This QAnon shit is fuckin wild. I was clicking through old Mechwarrior videos at 3:30 in the morning, as we all find ourselves eventually, and found a QAnon stream with two guys talking about and trying to decipher the newest leaks. It was indistinguishable from something you would see on Infowars. They were talking like Trump was fighting an actual war against the literal Satan. And 1700 people were watching it. If I actually liked Trump myself I'd be embarrassed to have those people on my side.
I'm super tempted to follow Qanon people on Twitter, but I don't want to die of brain bleeding
There are people who don't believe in physics and mathematics for what it's worth.
"I have a prophecy!" "Dude go away you're full of shit." "But God told me Himself!" "Oh well in THAT case, do go on!"
What's the opposite of God? DING DING DING!
Yeah, it's called the Republican party
I shit ye not, I've seen someone cite 1 Kings 7:23-26 as proof that pi equals 3.
But you see, there was a prophecy of the prophecy of the priest telling the prophecy of the prophecy that explains the prophecy of Trump become the President as told in the Prophecy said by the Priest who spoke about the many prophecies that detail about the prophecies of prophecies.
I once had some goon tell me that the dinosaurs weren't eradicated by the impact of a comet or a meteorite, but by the 40-day flood. When I explained it to him that there doesn't exist anywhere near-enough water to flood the Earth to the levels described in the Bible, his retort was as follows: "Well, what happened was, this comet or meteor came in and kicked up a huge dust-cloud that shielded the Earth from the Sun, and as a result of the Earth getting colder, it shrunk."
In a lot of ways he kind of comes off as the Anti-Christ tbh.
Wouldn't the obvious retort to that be pointing out Genesis specifically says two of "every" animal went aboard the ark?
There's no obvious retort with a guy who could easily take 3 or more weeks doing preventative maintenance on one evaporative cooler.
