I’ve always said, you can die for your religion, but you should never kill for it.

I’ve always said, you can die for your religion, but you should never kill for it.

I’ve always said religion is ridiculous. Let these Conservative Fundamentalist religious nut jobs go to an island with each other and have fun killing each other for their fairy tale beliefs.

And yes, MAGAts, Radical Muslims are the worst. Radical MAGA Christians are gaining though.

Radical MAGA Christians are gaining though.

You're a fool.

 

[Menace Sockeyes]

You're a fool.

Please talk to your buddies about not planning terrorist attacks on refugees in Minneapolis, kidnapping and killing the governor of Michigan, blowing up a federal building in Oklahoma, murdering more abortion doctors, or whatever it is they’re onto next. Maybe you can talk down your fellow MAGAts from the ledge? You’re about as mentally stable as we can hope for in that movement, sadly.

I think what the OP is attempting to say is that religious extremism in all forms is bad.

 

[lucas80]

You're a fool.

Pro Trump Christians use the scripture to urge violence in order to attain their goals.
Timothy McVeigh believed he was doing God's work. The examples are endless. Violent extremism is bad.

....meaning that the policies which caused this will continue.
