Pete Hegseth Leads Christian Prayer Service in the Pentagon

[cigaretteman]

Anyone who supports Trump is most certainly no true Christian:

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth led a Christian prayer service in the Pentagon’s auditorium on Wednesday morning, during working hours, in which President Trump was praised as a divinely appointed leader.
The event, billed as the “Secretary of Defense Christian Prayer & Worship Service,” was standing room only and ran for about 30 minutes, with Brooks Potteiger, the pastor of Mr. Hegseth’s church in Tennessee, as the main speaker.
Mr. Hegseth said he intended that the prayer service become a monthly event.
It is unclear whether the Defense Department has hosted similar religious events outside of the Pentagon’s chapel, which was added after the 9/11 attack, but the service is part of an increasing infusion of overt Christian evangelization in official government events during Mr. Trump’s second term.
The Pentagon press secretary, Chris Parnell, did not immediately respond to a question about whether the monthly services will include non-Protestant pastors, Catholic priests, rabbis or imams.

That dude is the biggest faux alpha on the planet. He’s also wholly unqualified for the position he currently holds.
But I digress, he’s a colossal scumbag like all the rest.

I'm not surprised he would want to make sure he gets dibs on the communion wine.

So, they let Hegseth out of his exile. I was beginning to wonder if they banished him to Betty Ford...

My bet is this is the monthly "look at us being all Christianly and stuff" to pay back all the money they threw at these MAGA monsters.

The horror…

Well it certainly is part of the process of installing a state religion. They may not be able to officially declare one, but they feel if they can involve religion in all aspects of government then they are getting it anyway.

My achin’ ass! What has become of my father’s America?
Whew….
And “we the people” sit idly in a pot of slowly warming water asking those around us, “I wonder what is for dinner?”

Dear Lord, bless my first wife…and my second wife…and also my current wife, as we follow the teachings of Jesus.

No, not really. That's just your imagination getting the best of you again.

You are having a rough day. You should probably check in with your psychiatrist.

I like Christians, even love some. But I do not like Nationalist Christians at all.

They can take their whole Nat-C agenda straight to hell.

Tell us Pete what does the Bible say about adultery? Like every other "self branded" Christian.

The horror…

The horror of a sexual abuser of women praising a sexual abuser of women as a divinely appointed leader? You know, like a king?
Something, something, thou shalt not worship false idols.

Whenever I see something about him I immediately wonder how many current group texts he's sending classified info to.

I just got one this morning. Gonna be a rough afternoon tomorrow in Mogadishu.

Whenever I see him shirtless and doing push ups I wonder how many women in the office he pats on the ass to hide how much he wants to do another dude.

Was attendance mandatory, or were people punished for not attending? Do other people have the option to lead a service for their religion in the auditorium?
