Watching these 2 megapreachers defend their private jets is a more effective emetic than syrup of ipecac

Well God is very powerful but… it’s a tricky job broadcasting though all of the sky, so to make it easier…

Actually…probably hitch hike. Because that way he could better spread the word.

If there’s one takeaway from the Gospels, it’s that Jesus Christ wanted His disciples to travel in historically unprecedented comfort.

Oh, he has nothing to do with these scumbag grifters. The moneychangers in the Temple, on the other hand…

I guess they have faith that if God had a problem with it, He would swat them from the sky.

So either they believe what they are doing is right, or they don’t believe God is real, or cares about the little stuff.

Either way, these two fuckers have jets.

So fitting that these charlatans would refer to the book of Amos.

Amos chapter 3 verse 15:

I will tear down the winter house along with the summer house; the houses adorned with ivory will be destroyed and the mansions will be demolished,” declares the LORD.

What is wrong with people? Not these two particular ass-clowns, but how could someone be so brain-damaged that they would believe these late-stage capitalists deserve more of their money? It seems that anyone that gullible wouldn’t have the cognition required to continue to walk upright, or to put food in their own mouths.

He was a brown skinned socialist. There is no “probably” about it.

Acts 4:32-5:10

The Believers Share Their Possessions

32 All the believers were one in heart and mind. No one claimed that any of their possessions was their own, but they shared everything they had. 33 With great power the apostles continued to testify to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And God’s grace was so powerfully at work in them all 34 that there were no needy persons among them. For from time to time those who owned land or houses sold them, brought the money from the sales 35 and put it at the apostles’ feet, and it was distributed to anyone who had need.

36 Joseph, a Levite from Cyprus, whom the apostles called Barnabas (which means “son of encouragement”), 37 sold a field he owned and brought the money and put it at the apostles’ feet.

Ananias and Sapphira

5 Now a man named Ananias, together with his wife Sapphira, also sold a piece of property. 2 With his wife’s full knowledge he kept back part of the money for himself, but brought the rest and put it at the apostles’ feet.

3 Then Peter said, “Ananias, how is it that Satan has so filled your heart that you have lied to the Holy Spirit and have kept for yourself some of the money you received for the land? 4 Didn’t it belong to you before it was sold? And after it was sold, wasn’t the money at your disposal? What made you think of doing such a thing? You have not lied just to human beings but to God.”

5 When Ananias heard this, he fell down and died. And great fear seized all who heard what had happened. 6 Then some young men came forward, wrapped up his body, and carried him out and buried him.

7 About three hours later his wife came in, not knowing what had happened. 8 Peter asked her, “Tell me, is this the price you and Ananias got for the land?”

“Yes,” she said, “that is the price.”

9 Peter said to her, “How could you conspire to test the Spirit of the Lord? Listen! The feet of the men who buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out also.”

10 At that moment she fell down at his feet and died. Then the young men came in and, finding her dead, carried her out and buried her beside her husband.

God does seem to have a strong opinion about this kind of thing.

Now that’s something I’d like to see! (stolen from a friend who said that to me in the 80s)

Christ, what a couple of assholes.

Kenny! Jesse! Yes, it’s me, your Lord and Savior. Now listen up! Due to a budget shortfall, we’re gonna have to sell off the jets and set you up instead with an ultralight aircraft. Yes, singular. You’ll just have to share. See you at the next meeting.

Why exactly does one need to unbuckle his seat belt, stand up, and hold out his arms to talk to what is (purportedly) an all-knowing, all-seeing, omnipresent being? If god wanted to have a conversation with you on a commercial jet, he would. As Roger Waters once said “What God wants, God gets.”

I can’t really get mad at these guys. Taking advantage of people gullible enough to be religious in 2018 serves them right.

Read a science book, people. The religious text of your choice will still be there when you finish, and maybe you will have some questions.
