    I don’t know how many times I’ve mentioned this, but there are two religious events that demonstrate God is displeased with people. Floods and plagues. There are more than that, but those are essential. If you were a Christian in 2020, COVID should have been the most obvious portent that God doesn’t like the way things are going in the world.

    If you actually believed in that shit, you would have dumped Trump immediately and never looked back.

    But Christians don’t really believe in the Bible. They believe in whatever their leaders say. They don’t follow the instructions of God. They follow the instructions of corrupt preachers and politicians.

    By their own standards that they usually apply to other people, but not themselves, there would be almost no Christians who have a good afterlife to look forward to.

    Would this be a “leopards ate my face” moment for people who believe in the christian god? “I never thought God would punish my sins!”

      Kinda, except you’d have to believe in some sort of deity or other decision making entity being the leopard for that to apply 🤷
