A combat-unit commander told non-commissioned officers at a briefing Monday that the Iran war is part of God’s plan and that Pres. Donald Trump was “anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth,” according to a complaint by a non-commissioned officer.

From Saturday morning through Monday night, more than 110 similar complaints about commanders in every branch of the military had been logged by the Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF).

The complaints came from more than 40 different units spread across at least 30 military installations

Satan continues to be the good guy in Christianity, or at the very least the lesser of two evils

Lathe: The God of WASPs is just the devil in disguise.

Every day I feel the reddit atheism slowly re-corrupting me.

What exactly are Satan's crimes in the Bible? He tries to be God's equal and take over his place? It's really hard to condemn him for that, given all the actual massacres and crimes that God commits in the Bible.

It really shows how Christianity is an ideology created (or at least deliberately spread) by the powerful, to keep people docile and never question authority.

PS: We can even trace the creation of Hell back to Plato, for the explicit purpose of influencing society through myths

Not only that, Satan's side of the story is excluded from the Bible.
