All hail the Unconquered Sun!
MTG = Medieval Tropes Grifter?
I am not the least bit surprised she doesn’t understand astronomic events or geological ones for that matter. Water is wet.
Suggested title change:
Maybe god wants republicans to repent
How’s it feel now right wing evangelical doom predictors!!!
The ignorance is baffling. I don’t know when I learned how eclipses worked because I was too young. Somewhere under 10. But obviously this is a person who doesn’t let facts get in the way. It reminds me a bit of how Speaker Johnson declared that homosexuality caused the fall of the Roman Empire- an event that curiously happened after the Empire adopted Christianity and banned homosexuality, suggesting the opposite, if anything.
I wonder at how much bandwidth a website dedicated to simply listing the factually incorrect nonsense these people say would need.
I could see that backfiring:
“And now, to demonstrate my powers, I will dim the light of the sun …”
“The pale-skinned sorcerer is stealing the sun! Kill him and his companions before he completes his theft!”
“Well, this isn’t going exactly as planned, Quartermain old chap – any other ideas?”
Who is the audience for this nonsense? Is it me? Since I’m talking about it.
Who told her that there will be an eclipse on Monday, and why does she believe them?
So I guess appearing on random pieces of toast was too subtle?
My favorite response to her post.
“Hey Marjorie God sent a deadly plague during the Trump administration, care to comment?”
Referring, of course, to COVID-19 and not the plague that Marjorie herself is.
I convinced everyone in our group to think impure thoughts and not repent until after the eclipse so God wouldn’t change his mind about punishing us with the most awesome and inspirational thing we could ever witness as a group.
