That is so f'ed up. Christ is a Jew. He is not American in any sense of the word. This crazed American Nationalism is taking over many people's minds in America. Christ is not an American. Never was, never will be.

It's one of those pop-up card board photo stations that people line up to take photos. TexasTiger I think you were in-line after the orange hair man.

No.  He is God.  Religions are the construct of men.  God doesn't not follow men,,, no matter how hard we attempt to rein him in.

Kind of thought that was obvious <er> as I was addressing claims that he is an American...Do you ever read anything?

Christ is of course Man and God. We were discussing the "Man" side here in reflection of the graphic above.

I do not believe I misquoted you.  I do not believe you understand my comment.  It is not personal.

If I ever meet God, I'm going to tell him the worst gift he ever gave humans was religion.

God didn't do that.  WE, ourselves did that.  We created religion.

God is about self control.  Religion is about controlling others.  Jesus is about love for all of humanity.  Religion is tribal.

Thank you Fitty.

 

The first time I read it, I read it as:

Sometimes people can be pretty ugly when the are trying to be God.

That might actually be more accurate?

I think the founders of our country were pretty sharp when they discouraged the combination of religion and politics.  Stand alone, they can both be forces for the good of humanity.  Together, they seem to promote selfish, self-righteous inhumanities.

I don't disagree. Was mostly tongue-in-cheek.

I know.  There are many though who have lost God in their practice of religion.

God did not “ give “ humans religion. Think about it.

Serious? People buy this stuff? 

Would make a great Christmas gift for Fifty.  Goes with the MAGA man NFTs you got for him last year. 

I wonder if Fifty got his gift from Homer and myself, the 2023 Women of the Democratic Party Calender (Pantsuits on Parade)?

24x36 for $98 seems pretty reasonable. Curious as to what kind of frame. 

Try Etsy and I’m sure someone will customize it for you.

Seems kinda high to me.  The calendar we go for Fifty was only 1.99 the week after Christmas.  BTW, the month of May is Debbie Wasserman Shultz in a backless, halter pantsuit!
