God, the performative bs. Like watching a B-movie only half the audience is enthralled like it's some Oscar winner.

Matthew 6:6 - pray in private But I think Matthew 23:27-28 fits better:

27 “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside but on the inside are full of the bones of the dead and everything unclean. 28 In the same way, on the outside you appear to people as righteous but on the inside you are full of hypocrisy and wickedness.

Jesus should have included some clauses in his doctrines about exactly how to negate such people from society. God's judgement comes a lil too late to be useful to anyone.

And they would give as much as shit about it as they give a shit about the story of Jesus kicking the money lenders out of the Temple or the parable about rich men entering Heaven and camels going through the eye of a needle.

Not applicable. I don't think any of those people could be characterised as "beautiful on the outside."

Jesus should have taught the people at the sermon on the mount to fish instead of giving them fish!

They'll never lift themselves out of hunger if you feed them!

In all fairness, the rule that "the more loudly socially performative a person is, the worse their character" seems to apply to insider signalling actions of all social structures whose "membership" can yield personal upsides, not just those of organised religion.

It must be god's will not theirs

/S

I would love to see someone lead that prayer in the Capitol.
