USA: It is time we kill the religious extremists.

Also the USA: Attacking Iran is part of God’s devine plan, and President Trump has been anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth.

US troops were told war on Iran was ‘all part of God’s divine plan’, watchdog alleges

Religious freedom group says 200 troops sent complaints of superiors using extremist Christian rhetoric to justify war

@randahl

Praying for Armageddon.

@appassionato @randahl
Jesus was blonde!

Heathen. 🔥😈

...and where are the virgins? 😇♥️

@ruedi That virgins thing is Islamic, so if anyone is now getting any of that, it's that Khamenei dude's spirit.

@appassionato @randahl

@ElBeeToots @ruedi @appassionato @randahl 'virgins' does not necessarily mean the are female... Just dor the record.

@El_Indifferente What's your point, exactly? 🤨

@ruedi @appassionato @randahl

@ElBeeToots @ruedi @appassionato @randahl maybe by the book they are considered to be female but as with other written history there might errors have happened...

@El_Indifferente I believe the gender of said virgins was not mentioned anywhere in the toots before yours 😏

@ruedi @appassionato @randahl

@El_Indifferente @ElBeeToots @ruedi @appassionato @randahl

Given that the jews are already on board, too – what about the buddhists and the like? Or don't they share the idea of a final big clash?

@distincteclare @ElBeeToots @ruedi @appassionato @randahl not really any deeper background in bhuddism but I do not recall them being a kind of apocalyptical religion. Very different from some strains of christianity.

Also not aware that jewish believers do think about the end if times.

@randahl Das Bild, wo die Leute zu Trump beten, ist nicht extrem religiös falsch geleitet? Hat sowas von Götzenverehrung und falscher Gott.

@susannelilith @randahl
Natürlich ist es das.

Die Aussage oben widerspricht dem aber auch nicht. ☝🏼

@randahl They're so 🤏 close to get it.

#PostOfTheWeek (season 3):
US military commanders have been invoking extremist Christian rhetoric about biblical “end times” to justify involvement in the Iran war to troops, according to complaints made to a watchdog group.

The Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF) says it has received more than 200 complaints from service members across all branches of the armed forces, including the marines, air force and space force.

@sternentau
One complainant, identified as a noncommissioned officer (NCO) in a unit that could be deployed “at any moment to join” operations against Iran, told MRFF in a complaint viewed by the Guardian that their commander had “urged us to tell our troops that this was ‘all part of God’s divine plan’ and he specifically referenced numerous citations out of the Book of Revelation referring to Armageddon and the imminent return of Jesus Christ”.

@sternentau

“He said that ‘President Trump has been anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth’”, the NCO added.

@randahl And yet "they" proudly post countless photos of them gathering around their orange "king" praying like the religious fanatics they themselves are...

The movie or rather documentary Idiocracy from 2009 is a drastic understatement of everything happening.

@randahl Nothing hypocritical about that. (checks dictionary for definition of multi syllable bigly word…) Oh crap 🫣

@randahl Shout-out to Annika @ardenthistorian.bsky.social @ardenthistorian who discussed religious extremists in the US back in 2021.

Made me see clearer.

President Trump has evangelical officials carry out hands-on healing on him in the Oval Office; his spiritual advisor is a radical televangelist and white...

@randahl With housing prices what they are, we really can't afford to have divine beings return to Earth right now.
@randahl They didn't read the Bible well.
@vlindervriendje @randahl
Ikr, because otherwise it’s hard to believe they would say this about someone they like.

@randahl

Saw this on Twitter …

God is not using Trump.
Trump is using God.

@randahl SNOPES says this is not true.

@victorindenver

Snopes didn't rate it either way 👇

@randahl

@DrALJONES It clearly states they had not received any video or audio recordings. Trust me I hate them was much as you do but posting this only throws gas into the fire, if it cannot be verified via ANY source why post it?

@victorindenver

What you're saying makes no sense.

200 separate individual reports saying their commanders made similar remarks. Their corroboration doesn't require recordings.

Do you think police in that circumstance would judge 200 similar reports as untrue?

It is simply snopes' policy not to call judgement in such circumstances. That is not the same as saying it is untrue.

Think about it.

@randahl

MAGA and Mr. Trump belong to a special denomination: The First Church of Pedophilia.
#EpsteinFiles #Epstein

@randahl Such arrogant blasphemy to think that God, who knows every sparrow and numbers the hairs on all their heads, needs a fucking "signal fire" in order to bring about the End. These people make me sick.
