Faith and religion
I've always seen faith and religion as two separate things. Faith is personal conviction, religion is someone else's convictions that are forced upon you.
If you haven't seen the (Dutch) film Simon, you should. Other than being a really, really good film, it also has the main character give us this wisdom:Every form of organized religion is wrong.
I agree. Faith is fine, religion is (mostly) not. Let everybody think for themselves: a "moral compass" should be in your head, not in random ancient texts.
But if the gist of your holy scripture is to be nice to each other, to help those in need and to see all human beings as equal, several serious questions and doubts should pop up in your mind if an openly racist misogynist with a long list of convictions for crimes that also go against the Ten Commandments, says he is a true christian. Is he? And if so, are you?
What would Jesus do?
Again, I'm an atheist, but I have absolutely no problem with telling people that face a moral question, to ask themselves "what would Jesus do?"
For me, Jesus wasn't an immortal deity who could walk on water, but simply someone who pointed out the same societal problems we see today: inequality, poverty, greed, abuse of power, hypocrisy... He wasn't the first or the last to do that either.
Creeds on greed
Jesus was crystal clear about greed; this article, "What did Jesus say about greed?", explains it exactly like I see it.
That's pretty much the same as what Buddha teaches us, only the goal to reach is not a god or heaven, but enlightenment.
I like to see myself as a socialist, a concept that is based on the same ideas as those preached by Jesus and Buddha: help each other, and share. Capitalism is the opposite of that: grab what you can.
A true Christian can never also be a capitalist, at least not without an unhealthy dose of hypocrisy.

Although I've been a lifelong atheist, I was born and raised in a christian environment, and was taught much more about the Bible than I care for.
Maybe it's because I look at christianity from a distance, that I have a clearer picture of it than the "official", churchgoing believers. It seems that I, as a staunch non-believer, live my life much more according to biblical standards than they do.
For all their claims of being christians, the MAGA-cult doesn't seem to know the Bible very well. Their cult leader goes against most of the values in it, including at least half of the Ten Commandments. Adultery, stealing, lying and coveting for example...
And then there's Luke 12... Orange doesn't know that bit (I bet he's never ever read a single page of the Bible), and neither do his sheep. Or they have come up with their own exegesis to make it ok.Then Jesus said to them, “Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; life does not consist in an abundance of possessions.”
-- Luke 12:15
It's part of Parable of the Rich Fool, such an appropriate title...
And let's not even touch the parable of the Good Samaritan, I'm sure they're bending over backwards to twist that into a story about how minorities are robbers and thieves 🙄

CW: "Appy for insider trading now, only 100 Grant!" This is unheard of: a president who actively manipulates stock trade, and openly offers to take bribes... no... wants to force traders to pay him for unfair advantages 😲
"Appy for insider trading now, only 100 Grant!"
This is unheard of: a president who actively manipulates stock trade, and openly offers to take bribes... no... wants to force traders to pay him for unfair advantages 😲Sherman and other experts note that the Constitution’s emoluments clauses, designed to thwart corruption, would not apply in this case. They bar federal officials from accepting gifts from foreign governments without congressional approval, and the president from receiving gifts from states.
You mean, like, an aircraft? That worked out well, didn't it..? 🤦
You have become a banana republic, US, you have elected a convicted felon for a second time and are now left to see how he defiles your society, your nation, its laws and its standing in the rest of the world.

My god, how humiliating must it be for USians to see how Iran has their president wrapped around its finger.
As much as I loathe the murderous Iranian regime, it's hilarious to see them toy with the orange basket case.

This just in!
@Jeroen2812✅️ sent it to me, and I giggled.
Then I looked again and saw that it was actually Agent Orange himself who had posted this, and my giggle turned into full laughter. Hilarious in several ways, best part is that Krasnov doesn't seem to understand the irony 🤣

Well done, Donny and Bibi, well done indeed!
Israel is the most hated country in the world at the moment, Agent Orange's US isn't doing much better. Heck, even Russia scores better than the US...

Yuck, science. Gets in the way of "alternative facts" and other populist hocum.
It could “eviscerate investments in fundamental research and in the training of the next generation of scientists and engineers for our nation,” Stassun said.
No shit, Sherlock. After having alienated each and every ally possible, the orange rapist is now going to push the US back into the days before the Age of Enlightenment, where people will have to believe what their king tells them.
I hope that all those USians who still believe that Agent Orange will be slowed down or even halted in november, realize how much time it will cost to repair all the damage he's done so far.

Commander in Chief general Tantrum demanded that Iran lift the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, but they told him to shove it up his ass.
In a brilliant move the stable genius came up with the solution: the US will now also block it 💪
Agent Orange wrote:Effective immediately, the United States Navy, the Finest in the World, will begin the process of BLOCKADING any and all Ships trying to enter, or leave, the Strait of Hormuz.
That's right, two negatives make a positive. Eat that, Iran!

So, the orange ape has started committing the war crimes he announced yesterday, threatens to commit the biggest genocide in history and ends his rambling rant with a blessing for the people he just promised to murder 🤔
The US has elected a certified psycho to be president. Most of the world knew that, but somehow he was elected anyway. For a second term even, mind you.
Early 2025 I predicted that he'd start WW3, and I wish I had know about Polymarket back then... I did make a bet with my brother though: €100 says he's not leaving office after his term ends. He'll have to be removed by force, just like every dictator in history.
I really, REALLY hope I'll be proved wrong on both predictions, but so far it isn't looking good.
I'll choose my words very carefully now, and only express my hope that at least one Claus von Stauffenberg lives in the US today...

"Not well", fantastic eufemism.

So, let me get this straight... After "so much winning", the Iranian regime is pretty much decimated, Iran's military capabilities have been eradicated, negotiations are going really well, and the never defined goals of this war are almost achieved. And of course, America isn't hit by inceasing oil prices. Dixit Agent Orange.
And yet the Strait of Hormuz remains closed, Iran keeps firing missiles, Orange has no idea who he's negotiating with, oil keeps getting more and more expensive for USians every day and today the US lost its fourth jet fighter.
This demented felon, this orange child molester and racist, narcissistic grifter has been telling lies since the moment he could speak, but he's stepping it up. Every day he tells more lies than the day before, and the lies keep getting more grotesque and obvious.
If only there were a law that made it possible to remove a president that's clearly lost his marbles... 🤔

I mentioned the Gleichschaltung in an earlier post today.
It's not just the military, of course: it's the entire US society.

So MAGA is stepping up the Gleichschaltung by telling soldiers which universities they can go to.

So, America has gone from Europe's ally to Europe's enemy within a year.
We don't know how much Putin invested in agent Krasnov, but the Return On Investment is astronomic: the US is actively going to destroy Europe.

The orange knuckle dragger and his couch loving Trumpanzee are dragging the entire western world down with them in their destruction of the US.
At this point, the United States is so inconsistent in its approach to the war that its proclamations – which appear to vacillate depending on the day – have virtually no strategic meaning.
I really hope there's more protest coming up after the NoKings demonstrations, actions that will lead to the quick ousting of this fascist menace.

For everybody, but especially for people in the US: this is what we in the Netherlands had on TV last Thursday: comedian Arjen Lubach explains how Agent Orange is changing "Free Speech" to "Me Speech".
Warning: free speech in this country is a bit more direct than in the US, but the subtitles use rather eufemistic translations for the names he calls Orange 😏
