Last month Trump vowed to defend Christianity and urged Christians to vote for him
“This is really a battle between good and evil,” evangelical TV preacher Hank Kunneman says of the slew of criminal charges facing Donald Trump. “There’s something on President Trump that the enemy fears: It’s called the anointing.”
The Nebraska pastor, who was speaking on cable news show “FlashPoint” last summer, is among several voices in Christian media pressing a message of Biblical proportions: The 2024 presidential race is a fight for America’s soul, and a persecuted Trump has God’s protection.
“They’re just trying to bankrupt him. They’re trying to take everything he’s got. They’re trying to put him in prison,” author, media personality and self-proclaimed prophet Lance Wallnau said in October on “The Jim Bakker Show”, an hour-long daily broadcast that focuses on news and revelations about the end times that it says we are living in.
@afraid_of_zombies May as well ask why you can’t escape David Lynch. He lets us crackers telegraph we like to get a little quirky if we associate with his brand and it goes to our head. Dune is like oh I’m a guy who reads sci fi books yeah I’ve read the Major Titles shit. I read it when I was a teenager and was like fuck this guy is tedious and by book 3 he’s a huge goddamned creep and everything is contrived beyond belief, even considering what went on up to that point lol
I still can’t get over the fact that the book has extra chapters of explanation of the plot in the back. You have to do fucking homework to read the novel!
Couldn’t just gradually fill in details as it went along like every sci-fi novel out there?
…man, stay away from tolkien…
@myrrh @afraid_of_zombies for good reason
Here, here! I fucking hate Tolkeins writing. Hell even Asimov gets into way too much tellling, not showing. I most certainly am not reading some fucking appendix because the author is too much of a hack to write some exposition between a few characters explaining the rules of the story. It’s like fucking Niel Stevenson giving a very bland and basic-ass lesson in vocabulary at the start of Anathem. Go climb up into your asshole farther, Niel. If I’m reading sci-fi in English I know how to look up a word, and most certainly don’t need you to fucking explain it to me.
@aniki LOOOL NEAL STEPHENSON overrated shit!! I don’t care what people codified, I give stuff separate star ratings for writing and worldbuilding etc
@afraid_of_zombies the lore for buddislam and stuff is beyond insulting to the historic centers of world civilization and to the fucking reader because there are zero details i hate his dumb ass
I was a bit curious how buddhaislam was supposed to work.
