I saw something yesterday, I think, about a woman who did a tiktoc reading verses from Matthew that contradict a lot of what the GOP are doing and how un-Christian it is. I can't figure out how to say this properly. Hell, the other morning I struggled (and couldn't until later) remember the word distract? Anywho, even though she was reading from THE BIBLE, MAGA went apeshit over it.
The simple response to "MAGA Jesus" is:
Not my Jesus.
Right. I do not recognize this Jesus.

That’s a great approach, though. What’s that quote? I can’t hear what you’re saying over what’s you’re doing.
There's the quote attributed to James Baldwin:
"I can't believe what you say, because I see what you do."
Pretty damn spot on.
THAT’s the quote.
Blessed are those who resist....Jesus would!
Amen.
Jesus did ! Didn’t Jesus support and continue non violent resistance? I don’t think he was the first.
I didn’t give up $60. for a trumpo bible (capitalization not deserved) so I don’t have the real MAGA scripture to quote.
But damn when will Satan and company be lured to leave our shores?
I believe it is both imminent and not soon enough.
I love the story of him entering the Temple and overturning the tables of the 'money changers'....would love to see that happen here!
That's one of my favorite Jesus stories, as well. That leaves room for righteous anger.
Yes. Me too !! I carry a mental image of that — it always makes me smile.
People must wonder about me - smiling in the produce aisle or at the gas pumps. What could she be smiling about in the rain - pumping gas?
lol!
