Not the Bee:
After Episcopal “bishop” Mariann Budde prayed for President Trump to have mercy on immigrants during his inauguration, the president accused the bishop of bringing her church into the world of politics.
Turns out, the church Budde leads was already highly involved in politics, especially concerning immigration, and has been for quite some time. As a matter of fact, in 2023, her church played a significant part in immigration politics, to the tune of $53 million in taxpayer dollars. more here
SNIP: Someone mentioned this (to me) in a thread yesterday but I forget the name.
Hat tip yourself in the comment section. Thank you.
They say money makes the world go around.
I wouldn’t know. I’m just a long for the ride but paying my fare honestly.
It’s ALWAYS about money.
When you think it’s not, you’re wrong, it’s still about money.
de bitch-op’s church been gittin $$$ fo de shitholers?
21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
Romans 1:21-27
God doesn’t require priests, you can talk to him directly with no middle man.
Priests, pastors etc are another point of failure added to your spiritual existence.
A relationship with God directly is much safer.
Man requires Churches, Religions, and [insert authoritative church figure label], God does not.
Consider that the Romans edited the bible heavily multiple times. A Bible which has stories which were were modified from Egyptian and Sumerian Mythos (and likely others).
If one believes in a Creator, do you really think they would need a religion?
God is good, loving, and forgiving. The major religions all hold a small part of the truth
I’m not concerned with where I go after, I know it will be with him.
Don’t need a religion written by people in the middle east, east, or anywhere else to discover that or God.
It is a good vehicle for some on their souls path to God and everyone has the right to a religion, or not a religion.
All of that is to say, people like this dumb bitch are why religious authority figures are a bad idea. Power corrupts, few are immune.
That demonic dyke piece of shit is importing kiddie rapers. Time to sic the newly revamped FBI on her commie ass.
Isn’t there supossed to be separation of church and state?
Oh… Aparently itz OK when democRATz do it!
That never makes it OK.
Bishop.
That should shut the bishop.
