Don't worry! God will "let there be money" and save the university!

We just need your help to get there. Please send us money so that God will make the money, only then when you have less money will you make more money to be like us, then you'll be able to make money with the money you gave God so that He could make the money.

It's all so simple. You don't want to burn forever in Hell, do you?

The Arkansas Oblast will soon create the fucknut Christian version of the 1979 Iranian Revolutionary Guard.

Unless the US gets their extremist christofascists under control, they'll never be able to become a normal civilized nation, it'll always gravitate towards a theologic dictatorship.

  • Tax all churches of any religion. Heavily.

  • Ban prayers everywhere but at some and church

  • Ban any groups that wants to introduce religion based curriculums at achools and label them as the domestic terrorist organizations that they are

  • Jail the leadership

I don't see many other choices here. It's either that, or just continue with the same bullshit we've seen for the past 7 decades

The christofascists are actually ENCOURAGED here for a reason, they are very easy to control and manipulate (as any television show on The Christian Network will reveal immediately).

They are also used against each other (various religions and sects), that's why they are all tax-free! "We" want it to flourish. They are perfectly divisive.

I'm all for all of that, but even before any of that, every single church that has tax exempt status should be heavily investigated, and that status pulled with the slightest sign of impropriety, which will be at least 50% of them.

There's a street near my local Walmart, and nearly every house on it is a "church," 23 in all. It's a tax avoidance scam, and it has to end.

I always have one question when I see this. Which version of The ten commandments?

We all know the answer but the fact that there's several versions...

[–] kreskin@lemmy.world 5 points 10 hours ago

Love it. The fascists/religious nuts need to learn some respect for others ideas and stop trying to bully everyone.

[–] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 29 points 17 hours ago (5 children)

I will concede that the 10 Commandments have any value when we elect a president that actually observes them all.

[–] a_non_monotonic_function@lemmy.world 0 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

I mean, most of the things there are already codified in law or in the social contract. Don't kill people is pretty universal.

I'd rather people math their expectations onto reality than the reverse.

[–] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 3 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Don’t kill people is pretty universal.

I'm pretty sure we have never had a president who respected that one.

[–] a_non_monotonic_function@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

That's not fair. Rules don't apply to the rich or powerful.

I meant for actual normal people.

This same UofA

"The University of Arkansas’ reversal of its offer to hire Emily Suski as its next law school dean has sparked concerns that the decision chills faculty’s free speech.

The university said it was withdrawing the offer after key Republicans raised concerns about Suski’s background and legal positions on transgender athletes."

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 46 points 22 hours ago (2 children)

it also potentially deligtimizes the degrees in the University,

These days getting a degree in a red state basically guarantees a devalued degree.

[–] tehn00bi@lemmy.world 15 points 19 hours ago (2 children)

<<<< has a degree from uark 🫠

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 16 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Nice! Which commandment did you study!?

[–] pressedhams@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 14 hours ago

A dozen or so!

[–] bss03@infosec.pub 2 points 12 hours ago

I'm a BS in CS from UA Fayetteville. But, that was 20 years ago.
