    What frustrates me is this is going to back up my parents end times bs. Wars and diseases and natural disasters. The Bible foretold it!

    And you fucking voted for all of it. Is it really a prophecy if the followers push for it all to happen?

      Ask them what happened to the people in the Bible that worshipped false idols and praised the anti-christ.

        Oh, this is absolutely accurate. The golden Trump statues, the worship, the plagues and war, and famine.

        I’m an atheist, but fucked if it doesn’t match the Christian list.

      We make it happen and then we say tadaaaahh, just like the Bible predicted!

      These people, and I’m sorry that they’re you’re parents, should be put in institutions where they will be cared for until they die. Or maybe just transport them all to an island where they can get all the diseases they want without cures and without anything science has given this world, so not even the pants on your ass. Find a cave to live I until you die.

      I’m so so so so so so so extremely done with these people.

          Let’s suppose for a second that their god Yahweh/Allah/Jehovah is real, and that the end-times bullshit they added onto their fairy tales extra-biblically was true. Let’s also suppose that petitioning a supreme being with prayer was something that was heard.

          Don’t you think this supreme being would get annoyed with the lesser being essentially kicking the back of the seat on the way to the end-times and asking “are we there yet? are we there yet?” Would an all-knowing supreme being know when the right time is for it without some lesser being begging for it to be sooner?

          Even in their fictional universe, it makes no sense to be praying for the end of the world…aren’t they broadcasting that their god doesn’t know what it is doing?
