Welcome to the News community!

Rules:

1. Be civil


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.


Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.


5. Only recent news is allowed.


Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.


6. All posts must be news articles.


No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.


7. No duplicate posts.


If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.


8. Misinformation is prohibited.


Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.


9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.


All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.


10. Don't copy entire article in your post body


For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

It's absolutely mind boggling to me.

Like, even if you accept the premise.

Like, let's riff. Let's "yes AND" this.

Jesus comes back. He descends from the sky, bathing in a heavenly glow. Lands himself right on the deck of the Ford.

"Hey guys, you did it. I'm here. What's up?"

"Jesus, Lord and Savior, we've done your work."

"Ah, this vessel is one of mercy and service... feeding the hungry, healing the sick?"

"Uh, no, it's a weapons platform. We just blew up a school full of kids, actually"

"..."

"Also to build this ship a ton of money was spent and a bunch of kids are hungry and homeless and we could have helped them but we didn't"

"..."

Like... motherfucker. If there is exactly one moment of your life that you're praying Jesus DOESN'T come back, this should be it.

It seems like it shouldn't even be possible to be that irrational and function - like a person whose brain is that broken could never even make it out of the house because they can't figure out how to work a doorknob.

The US military has been pushing their religious nonsense since forever. Believe it or not, this is a very subtle shift by their standards. This rhetoric has been common and coordinated with "religious" "leaders" , and on rightwing media.

Yep, even at boot camp it's sundays are easy days, and the mornings are off for church.

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, the MRFF told me Monday night.

Suicidal Death-cult followers shouldn't be in command of army-colored crayons, let alone actual milirary branches.

What Project 2025 tries to do: artificially induce the supposed second coming.

[–] RedWeasel@lemmy.world 4 points 5 hours ago

I half expected them to say he was Jesus. I wish that was sarcasm. Awful people. Leader of the “Peace Board” using a religion of “peace” to justify murdering others.

I mean, we can give Israel the benefit of the doubt, it is not like they have a history of bombing schools after all.

There's no talking with this kind of crazy.

We're really checking off the constitutional rights. Here we go, Separation of Church and State.

I genuinely don't know: What happens, Biblically speaking, to the people who hastened Judgement Day by worshiping the Anti-Christ? Is it something good?

[–] Stormy@thelemmy.club 1 points 4 hours ago

We need to figure out what those people do to the people who dont too. My old boss was a nut like this, and in his story I think those people are supposed to try and wipe people who dont out.

Makes sense when you think what morons voted for this megalomaniac. The brainwashed religious lemmings.
