No worries, Pastor. I am getting out of shithole Florida as soon as I am able. DeathSantis damaged this state just like the Mango Mussolini did our country. The rhetoric and propaganda makes it feel as if we are on the brink of war. DeathSantis wants his own private militia, sounds more and more warlike every day.

Back in the day when I did voluntary work for a community radio station, one of the presenters was a particularly feisty Imam of the blood and thunder school.
This chap would begin his broadcast sermons in English on such innocuous subjects as how to be a good employee and retain your piety in the workplace, and end up screaming for those same employees to be on the look out for abominable witches mascaraing as human beings among the work force, spreading mischief and cursing their employers cash flow prospects.
He would emerge from the studio sweaty and panting with a beatific grin on his face, declaring himself "a true follower of the prophet peace be upon him" with the rest of us thinking peace was definitely not upon anyone who listened to that hour long diatribe.

I find it interesting that for as long as I have been alive, several vaccines were required to attend school, and this is just one more.

It only became politicized because Trump mishandled the pandemic while in office so badly, that republicans don't want democrats to do better than Trump, and so they go anti-mask and anti-vax, drawing out the pandemic, so that Trump won't look so bad by comparison. Ironically, the best thing Trump did was to institute "warp speed" for the vaccine development. However Trump had no national plan for distributing vaccines, but Biden quickly put a plan in place, which pissed republicans off.

I was gonna pass on this one🥱. FUCKING YIKES!!! I think this is where my sister is getting some of her crazy.
A week before Thanksgiving I finally had to tell her I will no longer discuss politics, COVID or the vaccine with her. We can chat or message about everything else but since our views are completely opposite and I see no common ground on these issues there is no point in crankin' each other up. It would not be so bad but she is given to name calling, even as kids she would lash out and hit me so having 2,800 miles separating us is a good thing. Yeah, she's also a gun owner.

Wait until he finds out many Jews are cultural Jews and only follow the traditions of their tribe and not the religion. Maybe he needs to understand what 'Zionist' really stands for.

I hope he gets covid(delta).

How recent does the craziness need to be? When I was a teen living at home with my parents (well before cell phones) I was home alone one night flipping through TV channels. I stopped on a preacher who I had seen before when flipping channels but had never listened to. I never did know his name. I don't remember why I stopped on his program on this night. The guy was not a Holy Roller type but spoke softly and composed. He was talking about the Book of Revelations and he covered a couple of points before reading a passage that said the whole world would witness the return of Jesus. He went on to explain that the only way this could occur is if the earth turned inside out and all the people alive were on the inside of the giant sphere, like on the inside of a balloon (my desription, not his). Jesus would make his reappearance in the space at the center of this sphere so everyone a line could look "up" and see him. It was about here that I changed the channel.

They’re all assholes.

Preacher at a funeral: "we should be sad that little babies usually have to wait a long time to die to be with Jesus"

Jesus will protect you from Covid without any vaccine the same way he protects from poison and being bitten while snake handling. His protection is about as good as all those healed children at St. Jude.

Whats more disturbing than an individual stating an "opinion" is the fact that so many people believe it.

They're ALL fucking ridiculous.
