Are you kidding me? Every day I wake up thinking things can’t get any more crazy. I keep being proven wrong.
Do they not understand that the fundamental reason for most terrorist attacks anyplace is religion…. Ohh I get it, they DO realizable that.
Inb4 “unbelievers” are stoned to death. In the same way trump should be for adultery.
Did he play warhammer and think that’s a good idea?
After a bunch of chaplains called him and diapers out for being against God, they needed an office to ensure only nazi chaplains get hired.
Here is what the head chaplain of the army had to say when kegsbreath fired him
This administration has made clear it views chaplains as instruments to further its ideology. They want loyalists. Look no further than Secretary Hegseth’s personal minister, Douglas Wilson, who wants to create a theocratic society that strips women of rights and ends religious freedom.

That’s it’s a direct attack on the separation on church and state and it’s an attempt to put the organization capable of doing the most violence in human history, in the hands of people who still beleifs in fairy tales and give fealty to religious authority over reason or sense or empathy.
All I need to know is that it’s unConstitutional. Shut it down.
But, that’s exactly what conservatives love about it.
“Patriots” who despise the Constitution. Go figure.
TL;DR - it’s some Seven Mountain Mandate bullshit.
Yes, of course! We must be ever watchful of the enemies of Christ. Jesus exterminated every single traitor who handed him over to the Romans, and burned Jerusalem to the ground, after escaping the cross. I’m sure Emperor Tiberius felt very stupid just before Jesus executed him in the Battle of Rome. Remember that mercy and forgiveness are the work of the Devil - we must continue Jesus’ revenge against evil.
Haha so funny.
Now do the Old Testament. Oh wait, you can’t because it’s literally already worse than all of that.
That’s where The Inquisitor gets many of its Bible quotes for the loading screens, actually. For example:
(Nahum 1:2) The LORD is a God who takes care of his honor and gives punishment for wrong, the LORD gives punishment and is angry, the LORD sends punishment on those who are against him, being angry with his haters.
Thou shalt not take the lords name in vain.
Come, let’s pray!
“Our Father, who art our King. Bereave us of weakness, lest we forgive those who trespass against us. And draw out evil from darkness, so we may vanquish it in thy name. Amen.”
And the second command is like the first: ‘Love your neighbor as you love yourself.’
oh and
Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.
that second one being the path to breaking the cycle and escaping the material prison we’re currently trapped in, vengeance is a cycle without end.
mind you i’m pretty fucking hurt right now, and my heart is really struggling with the way a lot of people are acting, so i’m no saint.
just saying though, there’s a reason those things were said
Well, I’m sourcing from The Inquisitor Cycle, an alternate retelling where Jesus did what the evangelicals wanted him to do.
You see, in this retelling, Jesus told the Romans nearby that he’s going to butcher them all if they don’t let him down this instant. They laughed him off. Jesus made good on his threat, and kept going until he conquered the Roman Empire.
In this other reality, Jesus didn’t die to remove original sin, and instead decided to only save those who prove themselves worthy. This is done by showing no mercy to anyone or anything that may oppose him. In fact, mercy is considered a very serious mortal sin, since that’s what got Jesus killed in our world. The cross in the other reality has the ends bent to show how determined Jesus was to fight the injustice brought upon him (by breaking the cross, and I think he started killing people with it iirc).
It’s a great fit for Christianity in America these days. Rather than “love your neighbor”, it’s “shoot your neighbor in the fucking head if you have any suspicion that he’s a spy for the Devil”.
Oh I see where you’re going with this
Carry on lol, i’m seeing it too and it freaks me out

The Bible got it wrong!!! It wasn’t 4 horsemen! It was 4 donkey men!
Fuck Pete Hegseth and his death cult
Um, the Office of Religious Affairs would like a word with you. Please stand on the plastic.
The Office of
ReligiousChristian AffairsThe Office of
ReligiousChristianFascistConservative AffairsDamn. It’s all the same shit.
Also, remember when people give conservatives the benefit of the doubt and try to paper this over as some kind of recent aberration among conservatives and pull the No True Scotsman out and try to cast back to people like Buckley as an example of “good conservatives”, remember that he wrote God and Man at Yale.
Keep that in mind when you see what Hegseth is bleating about here, and it’s obvious that none of this shit is the least bit new:
Classical Christian education is our only hope to “give our kids and grandkids at least a fighting chance to save America and Christendom,” Hegseth concludes. He exhorts parents to “join the insurgency!” Children educated in this way, he believes, might stand a chance at defending their nation—because the wokes have failed miserably.
Buckley:
I believe that the duel between Christianity and atheism is the most important in the world. I further believe that the struggle between individualism and collectivism is the same struggle reproduced on another level.
I can’t tell if Buckley is in favour of individualism or collectivism there. Real Christianity seems like it would lean more towards collectivism, but right-wingers might see collectivism as one step away from socialism.
Oh I’m sure he was of the Supply Side Jesus bent.
He must have hated Bertrand Russel
Oh, I’m quite sure of it. Russell was an outspoken atheist, and Buckley wrote an entire book about how Yale was too accommodating of “secularism”[1]. In the 1950s.
[1] I find the way that cons talk about secularism rather annoying. They often use the term interchangeably with atheism or being outright hostile to others being religious, etc. Secularism is just the absence of giving a reach-around to a given religion, but these guys act like it’s some kind of ideology. This, they bitch about constantly, in a country founded on freedom of and FROM religion. We were founded as a secular nation, intentionally and a certain type of person has been pissed about it ever since.
Is he supposed to be riding a horse?
When Epstein acquaintances run the government, religions of systematic child abuse arise.
Jesus Christ is in Heaven now
