It seems like it shouldn't even be possible to be that irrational and function - like a person whose brain is that broken could never even make it out of the house because they can't figure out how to work a doorknob.

A combat-unit commander told non-commissioned officers at a briefing Monday that the Iran war is part of God’s plan and that Pres. Donald Trump was “anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth,” according to a complaint by a non-commissioned officer. From Saturday morning through Monday night, more than 110 similar complaints about commanders in every branch of the military had been logged by the Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF). The complaints came from more than 40 different units spread across at least 30 military installations, the MRFF told me Monday night.

It's absolutely mind boggling to me.

Like, even if you accept the premise.

Like, let's riff. Let's "yes AND" this.

Jesus comes back. He descends from the sky, bathing in a heavenly glow. Lands himself right on the deck of the Ford.

"Hey guys, you did it. I'm here. What's up?"

"Jesus, Lord and Savior, we've done your work."

"Ah, this vessel is one of mercy and service... feeding the hungry, healing the sick?"

"Uh, no, it's a weapons platform. We just blew up a school full of kids, actually"

"..."

"Also to build this ship a ton of money was spent and a bunch of kids are hungry and homeless and we could have helped them but we didn't"

"..."

Like... motherfucker. If there is exactly one moment of your life that you're praying Jesus DOESN'T come back, this should be it.

I genuinely don't know: What happens, Biblically speaking, to the people who hastened Judgement Day by worshiping the Anti-Christ? Is it something good?

The brains are rotten.

Makes sense when you think what morons voted for this megalomaniac. The brainwashed religious lemmings.

We're really checking off the constitutional rights. Here we go, Separation of Church and State.

In nomine patris et filii et spiritus sancti, amen. You can’t fix stupid.

There's no talking with this kind of crazy.

I'm not religious, but I'm fairly certain that Trump is the least christian POTUS this country has ever seen.

The worst people in America are running this country. There needs to be a reckoning for these shit bags.

If Jesus came back today maga would re-crucify him for being to woke.

“Many were increasingly of the opinion that they’d all made a big mistake in coming down from the trees in the first place. And some said that even the trees had been a bad move, and that no one should ever have left the oceans." - Douglas Adams

Turn back, we all made a horrible mistake.

And there you have it folks... War is Peace... as decreed by Jebus himself

Religion is a mix of mass delusion and propaganda, period.

Oh and great look btw, killing the Ayatollah (who, like it or not, is both a political and religious leader to many in Iran and around the world), and then immediately depicting it as a holy war... Great plan, Magastan!

Definitely won't be used to further indoctrinate lost souls with nothing to lose into radical extremist groups all over the world!

So this is a war between theocracies.

@return2ozma

I want every American to stop and listen.

If you thought that the US military was going to save us at the last minute from this orange pedophile and his pedophile posse, ask yourself this.

Why would military leaders actively break international law on the conduct of military actions, knowing they could be arrested and charged with not just war crimes, but crimes against humanity?

trick question. it doesn't matter what your answer is, they're still not coming to save us.

prepare yourselves.

You can imagine the Hollywood style promo. "First we had the Crusades for the Holy Land. Now Trump seeks to return the holy oil to the home of Christ. The U-S-A"

And suddenly wars in the name of religion aren't Bad anymore. How the turntables.

Any chance on getting these officers named and a date for when they were promoted to their current positions?

I'm an atheist, but I would be willing to start believing if those assholes were cooked in hell for all eternity in return.

I’d say it will be fun to point and laugh at them when they are proven to be stupidly wrong, just like every other end of days bullshit, but sadly when it doesn’t work out like they are psychotically convinced it will, you know the whole easter bunny coming back and bringing the righteous armageddon thing, they will just throw the nuclear football and pretend it was all par for the course. We all get to die for their selfish and idiotic faith, neat, huh?

Remember, don’t bother hiding when you hear that the bombs are coming, nothing can save you from the white hot atonement, you’ll have just enough time to make a coffee, pet the cat, and maybe watch an episode of your favorite show. It won’t hurt.

“The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with how Satan works: he will use all sorts of displays of power through signs and wonders that serve the lie.” – 2 Thessalonians 2:9

It trump was anointed by jesus, I feel validated in my past 35 years of being an athiest.

And Rabbi Kaduri predicted Netanyahu would be the last Prime Minister and instructed him to fulfill the prophecy by defeating Persia/Iran to bring the Messiah: 'Behold, a people rises like a lioness, and lifts itself up like a lion; it does not lie down until it consumes prey, and drinks the blood of the slain.' Crazies running the world

I mean if it is I don't expect to ascend into heaven or anything but jeez I sorta feel I deserve a quick, clean, painless death. I mean common.

[nasal voice over intercom] Has patient number 13 reveived his sedatives yet?

God's plan. Ha ha, tell me another one while you're at it.

Thusly validating everything I've said about religion and the dumbass military. Fuck off with this "thank you for your service" validation.

Divine right to land is an Israelite and other Levant tribes religious tradition. Christ had different philosophies, but at the same time, that Divine right to land applies only to Levant.

The only possible source of Noah's flood, also the only possible location of Atlantis, was in 6200bc where a potentially advanced (relatively) civilization lived on a dry Persian Gulf. Ice age glacier recession flooded this area but somewhat slowly. For one side, Sumeria (which advanced in this period) was closest high ground, and "Shem"ite population grew from there and moved down to Levant over 4000 year span. The Persian/Zoroastrian side has a more accurate hard winter and melting ice "flooding myth" that is also a less cruel God in a "survival of the fittest" migration from the Gulf Oasis.

Even Greater Israel "theory" stops at Iran border with Iraq, and there exists no possible twisting of Christianity's pure devoted love for Israel, that can place a signal fire in Iran.

We can't seriously put people who believe in this nonsense in charge of real world things.

Evangelicals have pretty much owned the military, at least since the 80s. It's particularly bad in the Air Farce.

Woo! Christian holy war!

@return2ozma He never listens... He wasn't anouted, he was annoyed.

Worked for Satan Dubya.

Annoying Ted! He's famous now!

Insofar as everything is god's plan if you believe that. Just like AIDS in newborns, children with leukemia, or Iran having a fundamentalist ruling class.
