    Which misguided religion is he referring to? Islam, Judaism, or Christianity? Or is he referring to all three?

    I am old enough to remember that after September 11, 2001 very similar things were said by all mass media. The didn’t even update their rhetoric.

    The only religion the ghouls in Washington believe in is pedophilia, capitalism and imperialism.

      Honestly, just change Iran to USA and Islam to Christianity and it still works, if not better.

      If Trump was chosen by God, it’s because God hates the United States and the world as a whole.

    Democrats did all that talk about how troops shouldn’t follow “illegal orders,” then are totally silent when these brave officers and enlisted follow blatantly illegal orders. But they don’t want the president to lose that power for their dream blue maga presidential candidate.

    Their misguided religion was maybe going to lead them to attack Isreal and the US someday, so Isreal and the US preemptively attacked them unprovoked instead, guided by our superior religions. The hypocrisy is completely lost on me, as well as the irony of, again, justifying their antagonism towards Isreal and the US in the first place for the umpteenth time.

    Yeah… Probably nothing to do with the fact we’ve been fucking with them since we helped to overthrow their Shah…

      For anyone else who never heard the term before: In political theory and theology, to immanentize the eschaton is a generally pejorative phrase referring to attempts to bring about utopian conditions in the world, and to effectively create heaven on earth. Theologically, the belief is akin to postmillennialism as reflected in the Social Gospel of the 1880–1930 era, as well as Protestant reform movements during the Second Great Awakening in the 1830s and 1840s such as abolitionism

      They’re gonna kill a bunch more children so Jesus will come open up the gates of heaven for them. Not for the children, but for the murderers of children.

        I swear I keep making this joke about “Jesus hates this one neat trick to bring the apocalypse!”

        Like wtf is wrong with these fundamentalist assholes thinking they can force a massive bloody war to happen and that will somehow trick Jesus to come because they completed some checklist? Are they playing some kind of card game? “Ha! My conditions have been met, I force Jesus to the field! He casts Absolution! We all go to heaven and collect 23 virgins!”

        …ffs
