I was watching a video and it got me thinking about this. We all know the type. The Jewish friend who comes over every year to ask if you have any leftover Easter ham. The Buddhist who everyone will brag saved them in the war. The Bahai who adheres to reincarnation instead of Heaven. The other day, I met a Muslim walking his pet pig. A match made in Heaven.
What’s the biggest deviation from the norm you’ve seen in someone of a certain religion who otherwise would show they genuinely believe in it?
Religious people supporting fascists particularly American “Christians” supporting Trump
I’m surprised Trump didn’t remove all the words in red from his Bible.
But then again he’s never read it and neither have the people who bought his Bible.
Wait, which words are in red? I don’t think I’ve seen that before.
Words directly spoken by Jesus are in red, most of the things Jesus said would be considered radically socialist by today’s “Christians”
Huh, TIL. Thank you!

It’s not their fault; the conservative posts of Jesus’s message were edited out, like after the death of John the Baptist when Jesus turned a few fish and loaves of bread into food for thousands of means-tested citizens, excluding those who, through the work of the devil, had fallen into medical debt.
I have bought and read a Bible as have my parents who actually believe the thing.
I meant those who bought his “Patriot Bible” specifically
Oh gotcha. My folks are more in the progressive liberals who became really religious camp.

I knew a guy like that until recently kicking him out of my D&D group. There was always an undercurrent of moral superiority to the rest of us, which we tolerated because it’s somewhat of a geeky trait, but declaring himself as pro-Trump was the last straw. I don’t have to extend my hospitality to that.
