Can you fellas not see the spiritual warfare going on in America right now?

If you stop reading HBOT it's not really that bad in the real world.

We have a special group of left wing extremists here set to convince the remainder of us they're somehow enlightened... They're unhinged viewpoints are useless in the real world. They're just here for our entertainment.

Be entertained, but don't let HBOT insanity make your life experience, it's just not worth it.
You have gone full potato.

I understand what you are saying and where you are coming from but I dont think it is spiritual in nature.

Trump is not religious, he only loves himselft, he breaks most of the 10 commandments every day or week.

His lying, cheating, love of money vs anything else, coveting other peoples' stuff, is really just a matter of him being a terrible human being if in fact he is human.

He has split us up through hate and not based on some basic policies. Trump is hateful and his minions are hateful and want to grab all the money from all the people they can. People are very upset because they see themselves or their fellow citizens being screwed over for no reason and in some respects illegally. Plus we are in a time of the most worthless scotus ever
Most worthless Congress too.

It's palpable. I can almost taste it. The divisions, darkness and disasters are seemingly endless.

"For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places."

- Ephesians 6

We're in a fight for our souls individually and the soul of this country. We're in a cosmic battle. This life is a test. God has already won the war but it's up to us to win the battle.

80% of Americans won't go to Church today which is Sunday. We live in a post-Christian country.

I hope everyone will join me in praying for peace.

"Pray, Hope and Don't Worry!"
- Saint Padre Pio

God Bless.
Go to bed
 
Religion and greed are the two most harmful human traits in existence. I'm not sure which is first.

84% of Americans say they are theists but 80% don't attend Church weekly.

We're in a mess, my friend.
Church going boomers grooming their children got us into this mess. It’s interesting that you equate going to church with being a better human. Churches give me a cringey cult vibe. I feel best after being out in nature, but that’s just me.

I’m about to take the dogs on a nice long walk and I’ll feel great afterwards knowing I accomplished something. If you feel a sense of accomplishment after going to church, great, but that seems absurd to me.

Have a great day and as always, thanks for your perspective that’s been shoved down our throats for thousands of years.

I definitely sense something is amiss.

That still isn’t driving me to church.

The church is a large part of the problem. In church, they not only endorse Donald Trump they celebrate him. Why would any sane person want to join that?

Imagine having an issue with sex and going to Stormy Daniels for counseling; or dealing with a penchant for violence and seeking support from Charles Manson; or having a problem with marriage fidelity and hitting up Donald Trump for advice.

Any reasonable person would say all of that is insanely stupid. Well, getting moral guidance from the same people who not only helped create the MAGA problem but still wholeheartedly endorse it is no different.

If a church openly endorses Donald Trump, I'd recommend leaving.

Yes. See here. I would increase your water intake. The medication can cause dry mouth. Drink water or things like sugar free Gatorade. Wishing you good health, as always.

I don't understand why Brian deleted his post unless he has instead decided to pray the squirts away.

You’re apparently going to the wrong churches then? I always feel uplifted after going to my church. They aren’t pushy about membership, etc, and they never discuss politics. I believe in separation of church and state.
 
The Russian Orthodox Church fully supports the invasion of Ukraine on ideological grounds and Orthodox churches in this country are MAGA breeding grounds for white males.

Terrible.

I'd run from any church that preached politics from the pulpit.

Just curious? Are you referring to Orthodox Jews or Christians? What in particular about Orthodoxy do you believe is attractive to MAGA?

The Eastern Orthodox Church in the US is tiny and in my experience is often apolotical, so I am curious how your view was formed?

You forgot to mention. This country went to hell with the disaster of the Obama administration. I hope Trump can appoint another SC Justice.

Haven’t been to a church in years, but I was forced to go to a Catholic Church growing up. I did visit my cousin’s Lutheran church once and it wasn’t as doomy and gloomy. Still felt like a cult though.

Ya don’t put your trust in any man there sure to let you down. Truly put your trust in Jesus, It will bring you more peace than listening to crap on this board. The theology on here is mind blowing.

Putting your energy towards made up shit is a waste of time when real life shit is happening. Don't get cucked by oligarchs because you have faith in something like religion.

Jesus was an okay dude, but he was only a man just like you or me. He definitely isn’t the son of a god just like his mom wasn’t a virgin. Some people are just so gullible it’s embarrassing.
 
I am Catholic and our Priest do not preach politics. They never have. I feel incredible after going to Mass. I know that there are many, many, who do not believe and will not be convinced that Jesus is their savior. I also try very hard to put my faith into action by volunteering and donating as much as I can to help people in need. But, there is so much more I could do.

I also pray for everyone as they cross over from this life through death that the Holy Spirit guides them.

Peace

I am referring to Orthodox Christians. For whatever reason, their numbers have been rising due to an influx of younger more often than not male conservatives.

I don't know that they preach "politics" per se. I think it has more to do with the belief that this strain of Christianity aligns more closely with their world view. Christian Nationalism is a very powerful component within the MAGA movement today and there is no separation in their world between ideological and political beliefs.
