He's distracting from the fact that he called for all Democrats to be removed from Congress. It's a smokescreen bc of how ludicrous it is.

Also, not news in my opinion. Sorry.

Wouldn’t even be in the top 5 of the worst or most immoral popes in history, which is crazy.

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 5 points 2 hours ago

To be fair he is a molester

Get in the spirit of the game, people!

What a weird cunt

[–] Almacca@aussie.zone 2 points 3 hours ago

More zone flooding. Ignore and move on.

Is this how we get the Orange Catholic Bible?

[–] Tiger666@lemmy.ca 13 points 10 hours ago

Frank Herbert was a genius writer, and we should never forget that.

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 105 points 12 hours ago (3 children)

Im not religious anymore…

…but the Bible literally predicted this.

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

I’m agnostic as American Christians are pure evil but there’s a lot going on now that lines up with warnings issued in their book

[–] Kookie215@lemmy.world 39 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

As a former Christian, It's been SO hard keeping my non-faith while actively living at the same time as the Anti-Christ.

1 John 2:18

[–] MachineFab812@discuss.tchncs.de 31 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Dude REALLY wants to be the anti-Christ, and the "Christians" that put him in office want that too. They think they'll be rewarded for putting their fellow humans(& the planet) through hell, and bringing on the end-of-days sooner, rather than later.

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth 3 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

The Bible says there will be many antichrists. Anyone who contradicts Jesus' teachings, or misrepresents or misunderstands are antichrists. That would include misogynistic apostles. (1 John 2:18)

[–] MachineFab812@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Hard agree, but I'm not here to argue against entire denominations. I personally despise any organization/religion above the Congregation level.

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth 1 points 5 hours ago

So, Nathaniel Hawthorne has been on my mind, recently (oooh, illuminati, Freemason! They used to have some measure of honor, you can search up the Freemason symbology of pauper Mozart's The Magic Flute, Manly Hall and Lon Duquette do excellent justice to the topic), he wrote Young Goodman Brown for reasons (although being guilty himself of not understanding indigenous American culture, but ignorance of the time, we all are guilty).

[–] Kookie215@lemmy.world 83 points 12 hours ago (3 children)

If Obama had made a stupid meme dressed as the pope, "Christians" would have burned the White House to the ground, it would have literally started a war. Its absolutely INSANE to me how much this man gets away with. He's right, you really can do anything when you're rich.

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth 12 points 5 hours ago

Rich and white.

[–] MyOpinion@lemm.ee 28 points 12 hours ago (2 children)

It is white piece of human shit privilege.

[–] libra00@lemmy.world 24 points 12 hours ago (3 children)

Iono about the white part, Biden couldn't have pulled that off either.

[–] RonnyZittledong@lemmy.world 15 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

It's really as simple as Trump hating the right people. He hates the same people that his voters hate and because of that he can get away with almost anything. Trump voters have been waiting a long time for a president that will openly and unapologetically spew hatred. They ignore the fact he is a narcissistic lying idiot who does not stand for almost anything religious people claim they care about.

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth 2 points 5 hours ago

They know. They don't care because they are fakes, too.

[–] Kookie215@lemmy.world 8 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

I think with Biden they would have been pissed and took to the internet and Fox News about it, but the pure hatered for Obama was something that people are very easily forgetting these days. People legitimately believed he was the Anti-Christ and a Muslim. They would have actually rioted in the streets.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 3 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

the key here he was half black, and it all broke thier minds.

[–] Kookie215@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

And we will never stop paying for it.

[–] 1847953620@lemmy.world -3 points 11 hours ago

agree to disagree lol

As soon as the pope died I told my partner he would do this.

"Some say, not me, that I would be the best pope there ever was. I am the most wonderful christian man there is. The presidency has been very successful - just look at the polls! From today I declare myself POPE TRUMP!!! The DANGEROUS left will call me many nasty things, many bad things. They are deranged and nasty but I am now the pope and they will not do anything about it because they are WEAK. Some say Sleepy Joe Biden killed the pope, now I don't know if that is true, I don't think it is but it might be true, I don't know. KING POPE TRUMP 2028!!!"

This guy reminds me of that movie Little Nicky where Satan’s son comes to earth and is preaching to a church congregation (while standing in a pizza? Am I remembering this accurately?).

He even paints his face orange like the devil lol

Edit: Here it is

[–] BigMikeInAustin@lemmy.world 14 points 12 hours ago

Why does Trump fantasize about wearing a dress?

[–] HexPat@lemm.ee 23 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Pretty sure this is now illegal in Texas

[–] Blue_Morpho@lemmy.world 10 points 11 hours ago

It's only illegal for Democrats. Republicans won't be prosecuted.

[–] Charlxmagne@lemmy.world 19 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Again, this fully convinces me he definitely did NOT order the assassination of the pope.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 3 points 5 hours ago

he had vance reap the popes soul.

What's is even happening in this country

[–] jinarched@lemm.ee 1 points 30 minutes ago

The trajectory of the shit moving toward the fan has reached its end.

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

We’re watching the fall

[–] MyOpinion@lemm.ee 10 points 12 hours ago

Yes please take him as the Pope and remove him from the presidency.

[–] kn0wmad1c@programming.dev 7 points 12 hours ago

Someone invoke the TAKE IT DOWN act on it

[–] aturtlesdream@lemmy.world 5 points 11 hours ago

Okay, he can be the pope if it means he is no longer president. There is slightly less damage he can do that way!

[–] libra00@lemmy.world 6 points 12 hours ago

Someone with some photoshop skill ought to change this to be the face from the painting Trump said he hated it and then reply to his post with it. Bonus points if you add some greasy McDonald's stains to the hat and/or robe.

[–] BigMikeInAustin@lemmy.world 4 points 12 hours ago

Do his hands look small? Even AI couldn't give Trump normal sized hands?

[–] KingGordon@lemmy.world 3 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

He misread pope as rape and signed right up.

[–] DrSleepless@lemmy.world 6 points 11 hours ago

Or maybe he figured he could molest more children
