Elon wishes to be Emperor of Mankind.
His heresy must fail.
Retweeted by the official White House account.
I wonder what all of his Protestant Evangelical backers think of this.
My eschatology is a bit rusty, but I think this is the type of thing that they thought the Antichrist would do. But maybe that’s why the evangelicals back him, thinking the rapture is just around the corner…
(Or maybe, the “rapture” is happening right now, except instead of the chosen, worthy people being disappeared to Heaven, they’re all being disappeared to El Salvador. The joke’s on all those evangelicals, I guess. Ha.)
Edited to add: Doesn’t “El Salvador” literally translate to “The Savior”? Kidnapping the innocent and whisking them to “The Savior”, never to be seen again, definitely tracks.
Just to note: these books are heavily based on dispensationalist pseudo-theology.
But I agree that trump is an Antichrist
100% agreed on the pseudo-theology. Left Behind is a terrible series.
I just find it funny, because he acts like Carpathia. Like, Carpathia is characterized as smart and charismatic, but nothing in the writing backs that up - it relies heavily on some sort of magical attraction. Which is got to be the only way that you can explain how conservative Christians who have spent the last 50 years shrieking about sexual morality have latched onto this guy like he’s the Second Coming if you believe any of this shit. (The real answer of course, is that opposition to LGBT people was on the whole not religiously motivated, just “we don’t like the icky people.”)
Thank you for this link; it has made my day immeasurably more entertaining.
Fred Clark is the kind of Christian that got me out of my “angry Reddit atheist” phase. He’s a great writer.
Agree. But, is dispensationalism really “pseudo-theology” if people believe it?
Heresy then?
It’s a biblical interpretation framework based on giving theological significance to the order of the books in the Bible, ignoring previous history of theology and history of the formation of the Bible.
Theology is one the oldest sciences, it has Method; Dispensationalism throws it away and does it’s own thing.
That’s all from those books, right? I haven’t read them.
But I do know that Trump likes Golden Toilets, and has made his own crypto shitcoin. So maybe he is the Shitty Antichrist?
He’s already got a few golden statues.
It’s not like he’s shared AI videos of his imagined Gaza resort.
Can’t wait until he and Bibi team up to build the new Temple, and freedom loving patriots sign up to get their Neurolink chip in their right hand or forehead…
Why is he a hobbit in that statue?
Dude is literally the antichrist
Arguably the Antipope (or would be, if he decides to keep pushing this ‘’‘joke’‘’ like he has with the conquering Canada crap…)
Do we talk about ridding ourselves of the antichrist or would that be “uncivil” and “inciting violence?”
Do it. Become pope.
US Constitution, Article I, Section 9, Clause 8:
No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States: And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.
No more presidency for you, dumbass.
(but then again, the constitution doesn’t seem to matter any more so what do I know 🤷♂️)
without the Consent of the Congress
I don’t see the problem, Congress wil consent to anything, let him do anything; he could grab them right by the legislativussy
legislativussy
Congrussy 💀
without the Consent of Congress
They’d just give their consent, and we’d still be in “not quite a constitutional crisis” we’ve been in since he took office.
Trump has been in flagrant violation of the ‘emoluments’ part of that section for the entirety of his presidency — both terms.
Guess what consequences he faced for that. Go on, guess!
This is a flex. It means “watch me insult the largest Christian organization on earth with literally no consequences. My base’s support won’t budge and the rest of you cowards will continue to take it.” Has nothing to do with the pope or being the pope- it’s just another demoralization tactic.
The guy bankrupts everything he touches. Go ahead, take down the church.
Hey Texas, a political meme is using AI to push an agenda. You going to do something about it?
They literally live by the phrase, “come and take it.” No, they won’t do shit.
lol what a loser
He’s going to pull a Henry VIII and make a state sanctioned version of Christianity called the Church of America, isn’t he.
You know, that would make a lot of sense with his “we need to forget about the separation of church and state” comments.
We’ll just have public schools which have a state sponsored religion, which acknowledges our great hero - an instrument of god himself.
What number of felonies would it have taken to call Obama a “son of lawlessness?”
This guy is so crass and so gormless he doesn’t hesitate for one second to spit in the face of 1.5bn Catholics in the world.
Having said that, I wouldn’t mind a picture of Trump as a dead Pope…
Catholics (in America at least) would happily let him spit in their faces, as long as he continues to make abortions harder to get. Never mind the fact that the Church is equally against the death penalty, or treating migrants like cattle…
American catholics are very different to european catholics. Not that european catholics are good, but compared to the US version they are outright progressive.
I think it varies. West coast Catholics tend to be pretty progressive compared to Midwest or southern Catholics in the US.
If they pick another reformist Pope (especially one from Africa or Asia), I would expect the American Bishops to openly revolt and name their own Pope. It’s been over 500 years since we had an Antipope. I think we’re due.
ONLY the TRUE Chosen One Of God would DO something like THAT! Now I’m even MORE CONVINCED Convicted Fraudster and Rapist and Thrice Married Billionaire Donald John Trump is GODS SON!
Can someone please link to the image? For some dumb reason, the article writer decided to use a completely different (and real) picture of Trump as the article image, instead of, you know, the image the article is actually about.
Ok I ate the onion on this one.
This guy can’t be serious.
I mean, who else are you going to get to run the largest pedophile ring in the world?
He’s certainly got the network.
“She confided in me about her casual ‘friendship’ with Donald. Mr Trump definitely seemed to have a thing for her and she told me how he kept going on about how he liked her ‘pert nipples’,” she testified.
She then described in graphic detail how Mr Trump allegedly caused pain to the victim’s nipples – and claimed she saw the resulting injury firsthand.
In further Left Behind Antichrist parallels, quite a few of the business close to Carpathia get knocked off as he consolidates power. The kind of people who might know where bodies are buried, or what really happened on the night in Epstein’s cell.
Where’s Chaim when you need him?
Trump wants a job where one of the rules is no having sex? I don’t buy it for a second. Also, imagine the shock wave traveling around the world as every conservative head in America exploded at once if Obama had posted something like this.
It’s like a Bethesda game. Maybe he’ll try to get appointed Dalai Lama and Kwisatz Haderach next. He’s probably got a side path where he’s trying to head the Illuminati (repeatedly discovering it doesn’t exist) and like the Priory of Sion or something.
Maybe we’re living in Thomas Pynchon’s DMT death dream.
