  1. Two Simple Presidents' Day Tests:

    1. Name any crime that Trump hasn’t committed.

    Note: Crimes committed in his name by people working for him count as Trump’s crimes.

    2. Name any of the 10 Commandments that Trump hasn’t broken.

    I counted 0 for each.

    This worthless man is truly a shameful stain on Presidents’ Day.

  2. #Atheist
    Why would your all-powerful god need or accept help from the United States of #America #government?

    Does your (Christian?) #god need to force the posting of its #10commandments in #classrooms, that even the POTUS doesn't adhere to?

    Does your god need financial help in indoctrinating children in supposedly secular schools?

    The new #Christian #religion is really confusing. And maybe that entity could publicly and loudly and very clearly simplify it for residents of Planet Earth.

  3. so #oklahoma's #ChristianNationalist superintendent of schools - the guy who was trying to put the 10 commandments in every classroom and who just a day or two ago announced every school in the state would have its own chapter of charlie kirk's #TurningPointUSA - got caught watching a movie with naked ladies in it (possibly not porn?) in a meeting and has resigned (not totally clear those things are related or if it's just because oklahoma dropped to 50th out of 50 states in education during his tenure).

    #Legislators in conservative states are drawn to a belief that the #10Commandments [“10/Cs”] underscore #American’s moral, jurisprudential, and historical heritage.

  5. This fall, Texas requires public schools to display the 10 commandments in classrooms.

    I’ve made a PDF that largely conforms to the specifications required by Texas SB10, and you can download a printable (I recommend a color printer) version you can print out, frame or laminate, and donate.

    Get the PDF: pdflink.to/10commandments-tx-c

    I just want my watermarking to make it into at least one classroom.

  6. if you care about american politics you should watch joe rogan's interview with texas rep. james talarico.

    talarico's a former middle school teacher, ardent christian, and member of the democratic caucus who got on rogan by giving a rather moving speech against the new texas law mandating the display of the ten commandments. he's also incredibly eloquent and well informed (he's currently actually in seminary) when speaking about things like the christian view on reproductive rights, christian nationalism, and more. the democratic party needs a lot more of this energy.

    midway through the interview rogan tells talarico he should run for president.

    i'll also throw out there that rogan had bernie on just a few weeks ago... maybe things are shifting...

  7. What does the #bible (📖) actually say about watching #anime (🎨) and #cartoons (🎨)? or #movies (🎨) in general. Believe it or not anime and cartoons generally might be ok to watch for #entertainment purposes under #Christianity.

    one things for sure, #idolatry is one of the big #sins (🚫), mentioned in the #10commandments. Try not to make an #idol out of 🎨 and not look to them as above god (🌥️). (one way to know if you're not doing this (idolatry) is if you can spare maybe 5 minutes to silent prayer to #god 🌥️ or aloud if you'd prefer. Daily.

    #Witchcraft and etc featured in #animes and #cartoons

    A lot of 🎨 feature spells, magic, magic abilities, and 'special moves' among other super natural abilities.

    Since it is presented in a fantasy art context, if you're just watching something like #SabrinatheTeenagewitch :

    I'd ague that it's safe to watch as a Christian because you're not actually practicing any of it in real life just from watching a cartoon meant for entertainment and some life lessons delivered through the shows, additionally each cartoon and anime make up there own fictional world based spells such as the Sonic Spin dash. Can humans even do the Spindash at will?

    One aspect of cartoons I would be wary of is content, but in a cartoony/ entertainment perspective, consuming fake witchcraft without the purpose or encouragement of actually going to the "doing" part of it, I believe is actually safe to watch and not a sin.

    Swearing and 18+ content

    Any #cartoons that may swear, present characters in 18+ nsfw situations, any thing that might bring unease from watching it. Think of #zombie jump scares in rated r movies and the gore presented in a lot of those types of movies.

    In context, Scooby Doo I believe would be ok to watch for brief, with a non idolatry mindset. Does it feature some imaginary monsters and ghosts yes, but it's clearly fake, and these ghosts and monsters are litteral unmasked so even in Scooby Doo they aren't always presented as real spirits, and is for entertainment and quick laughs and is generally family friendly. However not always, modern cartoons a making adult versions of older kids shows and pushing the boundaries.

    A 🎨 like Resident evil, might bring some unease to some and bring down some viewers spirits, or even prevent them from sleeping at night.

    Five nights at Freddy's despite it's 'basic' jump scares isn't as uneasing as Gorey screens and arguably any frightening impact is minimal from a non gory jump scare because the scare only lasts at the moment and not beyond.

    Psalm 101:3 states, "I will not set before my eyes anything that is worthless". This highlights the importance of avoiding media that can lead to moral compromise or spiritual decline.

    Remember the 📖 does not ban you from watching cartoons or doing anything other then being with God🌥️. Otherwise friends or marriage would be a 🚫. However the content in theses media, in the context of the 📖 , is very important to consider. Particularly gore and and 18+ content in media. Media can morph a persons mind and life choices decisions.

    However if you're not married then having simple crushes on multiple characters on media I don't think would be a 🚫 because adultery seems to only apply after you're married if you're not then it doesn't seem to apply to you yet as a sin untill after the fact. Be honest with yourself.

    * educating students on the horrors of communism
    * stopping drag queen story hour

  10. @caban4 I’d rather have presidents put their hand on the 10 Commandments. They are simple enough, though most ‘world’ leaders don’t even have the moral capacity to follow them.

  11. @DoesntExist

    Exactly. He is so transparent you can see through one ear and out the other. (esp with the bandage off)

    There is NO other way to interpret this nugget within his #WordSalad. He says repeatedly, in simple terms (all he knows) that HE will take care of the hassle of voting in the future... no need to worry about any more elections once he is anointed. No pesky ballots - or #democracy - Only one nation, under #TrumpVirus (false god who knows the #10Commandments better than anyone)

  12. Just a reminder, while everyone's distracted by "Look! Biden is old!"

    #10Commandments are an actual thing.

    What should good Christian #MAGA / #GQP / #TrumpVirus fans do?

    Who do you believe, a ":false god" - vile vindictive con man, liar & grifter - or actual Scripture?

    Sentient beings may recall the chaos of 2016-2020, from Sir and the Bannon/Fox #disinformation machine.

  13. @br00t4c
    I think the schools being mandated to teach the #10Commandments should have a nice long discussion about T**** and the 7th #Commandment (#Adultery.)

    Though I'm not sure how you explain "Adultery" to Elementary students w/o running afoul of yet another #GOP law. 🤔

  14. NEWS FLASH

    The 10 Commandments aren't Christian.

    They are from the Old Testament, otherwise known as the Torah.

  15. "Taken together, the measures have signaled the ambition of the governor and the Republican-led Legislature to be at the forefront of a growing national movement to create and interpret laws according to a particular conservative Christian worldview. And Mr. Landry, a Catholic who has been vocal about his faith’s influence in shaping his politics, wants to lead the charge."

  16. Hafiz Rashid on Trump's support for the 10 Commandments stunt:

    "This is a calculated effort to appease the Christian right, along with his attacks on abortion rights, which he tries to disguise but very clearly states to Christian audiences. Somehow, despite his philandering, lying, business fraud, and numerous other violations of the Ten Commandments, he continues to be thought of as a person of faith by 64 percent of Republicans."

  17. @JuanWild
    Only two (arguably three) of the #Commandments actually have legal equivalents: Murder & Theft (and maybe Adultery... that one will be difficult to explain when the #GOP's candidate is a serial adulterer... let alone a #ConvictedFelon.)

    If they forced me to put up The #10Commandments in MY classroom, I'd use it as an opportunity to discuss Donald T****.

  18. @FaithinBones
    T**** & his followers violated more #Commandments than apply to U.S. law.

    Commandment 1: No other gods.
    Commandment 2: Graven image.
    Commandment 4: Remember the Sabbath.
    Commandment 7: Adultery.

  19. The 1st Adam in the Hebrew Scriptures #1 Beginning of everything

    Thousands of years ago there was a void, but there also was the Eternal Being that ever was and always shall be, having had no birth and never having an end or not able to die. That divine Eternal Being “That is” or “I Am“, the “I Am Who Am” or the “I Am Who Is” has a Voice and that Voice spoke in the darkness and when it spoke that what it expressed came into being. In this way That Spiritual Being “The I Am that I Am” took care that things came into being. Every time This I am that I am Ehyeh-Asher-Ehyeh אהיה אשר אהיה saw it was alright and when it was good The Cause of Being brought an other thing into existence. Every time The Being “That Is” spoke Its Word became a reality. The incorruptible Word spoken brought into existence.

    It was God’s Power (the Holy Spirit) that brought things to life. It was God His Word which was spoken, brought into reality and was there to stay for ever in truth, never telling lies. As such later in history the carnal beings created by that Most High Eternal Being received in their hands the greatest source of the greatest ideas known to man. First the Word went from one being to an other vocally, but later it became recorded on stone plates, than on papyrus and parchment roles. First those words of the Most High were notated in Hebrew, than Aramaic words and Greek words supplemented the documents written down in the name of God by set apart (holy) men.  This way man got the Scriptures, and for this series on the new or 2nd Adam we shall also look into the wisdom of the theological minds who brought forth the 1599 Geneva Bible Patriot’s Edition, which will enable you to think God’s thoughts after Him because the Bible is His special revelation. Herewith is a resource that you are sure to find indispensable for the study and interpretation of creation as God would have you see it.

    The Geneva Bible once changed the world. With that Bible man can hold in their hands something that is about to change the world — again. For those who find that bible we ask them to use this Bible with care. Use it faithfully with faith. Then watch God once more do above and beyond all that we can ask or imagine.

    {For this series we use the revised 2010 Tolle Lege Press (United States of America) edition of the 1599 Geneva Bible Restoration Project}

    To come to know why Jesus is so important for us and to come to see who he is and what purpose he served, we have to go back to the beginning of everything. We have to listen to the Word which sounded in the void.

    In Genesis chapter one we are told how everything started and that first of all, and before that any creature was, God made heaven and earth of nothing.

    Genesis 1

    1 God created the heaven and the earth. 3 The light
    and the darkness, 8 The firmament, 9 He separateth
    the water from the earth. 16 He createth the sun, the moon,
    and the stars. 21 He createth the fish, birds, beasts, 26 He
    createth man, and giveth him rule over all creatures, 29 And
    provideth nurture for man and beast.

    1 In the 1beginning aGod created the heaven and the earth.
    2 And the earth was 1,2without form and void, and 3darkness was upon the 4deep, and the Spirit of God 5moved upon the 6waters.
    3 Then God said, bLet there be light: And there was 1light.
    4 And God saw the light that it was good, and God separated 1the light from the darkness.
    5 And God called the Light, Day, and the darkness he called Night. 1So the evening and the morning
    were the first day.

    The Creation – James Tissot (1836–1902)

    Next we come to hear that it is the only power of God’s Word, His speaking, that makes the earth fruitful, which else naturally is barren. In Scriptures also more than once shall it be repeated that God made all His creatures to serve to His glory and God wanting to see that all is good, but that in the world there is seed, the matter that brings forth new matter, good or bad, depending on how the seed is and where the seed lands, in what sort of soil.

    9  God said again, eLet the waters under the heaven be gathered into one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.
    10 And God called the dry land, Earth, and he called the gathering together of the waters, Seas: and God saw that it was good.
    11 Then God said, 1Let the earth bud forth the bud of the herb, that seedeth seed, the fruitful tree, which beareth fruit according to his kind, which hath his seed in itself upon the earth: and it was so.
    12 And the earth brought forth the bud of the herb, that seedeth seed according to his kind, also the tree that beareth fruit, which hath his seed in itself according to his kind: and God 1saw that it was good.

    Too many christians do forget that the Bible also tells us clearly that there were animals and plants before man.

    20 Afterward God said, Let the waters bring forth in abundance every 1creeping thing that hath 2life: and let the fowl fly upon the earth in the 3open firmament of the heaven.
    21 Then God created the great whales, and everything living and moving, which the 1waters brought forth in abundance according to their kind, and every feathered fowl according to his kind: and God saw that it was good.
    22 Then God 1blessed them, saying, Bring forth fruit and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let the fowl multiply in the earth.
    23 So the evening and the morning were the fifth day.

    Only after all the planets, waters and earth, creeping beings it became time for an other creeping being of flesh and blood, in a system where there would be light and darkness as instruments appointed to serve to man’s use.

    Every time God spoke, the “soul of life” came into the beings (Hebrew for the “living thing” verse 24).

    24  Moreover God said, Let the earth bring forth the 1living thing according to his kind, cattle, and that which creepeth, and the beast of the earth according to his kind, and it was so.
    25 And God made the beast of the earth according to his kind, and the cattle according to his kind, and every creeping thing of the earth according to his kind: and God saw that it was good.

    It was only after God had commanded the water and the earth to bring forth other creatures, that He said of man “Let us make”, signifying, that He the Most Highest, Who speaks with the ‘Royal We’ (Royal plural or Pluralis majestatis), God

    “taketh counsel with his wisdom and virtue, purposing to make an excellent work above all the rest of his creation.” (1599 Geneva Patriot’s Edition)

    26 Furthermore God said, h,1Let us make man in our 2image according to our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the heaven, and over the beasts, and over all the earth, and over everything that creepeth and moveth on the earth.
    27 Thus God created the man in his image: in the image of God created he him: he created them imale and female.
    28 And God 1blessed them, and God said to them, jBring forth fruit, and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it, and rule over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the heaven, and over every beast that moveth upon the earth.
    29 And God said, Behold, I have given unto you 1every herb bearing seed, which is upon all the earth, and every tree, wherein is the fruit of a tree bearing seed: kthat shall be to you for meat.
    30 Likewise to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the heaven, and to everything that moveth
    upon the earth, which hath life in itself, every green herb shall be for meat, and it was so.
    31 lAnd God saw all that he had made, and lo, it was very good. So the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
