The more people that can see that truth illustrated through a public execution, the better.

Yep, he wants children to watch a man in a wheelchair get shot to death by the State

How many gun nuts will be watching and fapping? How many Pastors?

Christian Nationalists are going to be, if they're not already, the biggest domestic terrorism threat because they are itching to kill people.

And let's be real about something; in our society Christians always get the benefit of the doubt no matter how unhinged they are.

We, the thinking people, need to start saying with our full chest that Evangelicalism is not a religion. It's a political death cult that breed terrorists and hate. We need to say with our full chest that Catholicism and Christianity sit idly by while this happens.

I mean they aren't totally idle. They are raping a ton of children.

Look throughout history and this is what religions become. They become a way for evil people to gain power and faith turns to zeal which provides the delusion of divine justification for every violent, hateful, destructive impulse in the minds of people who have broken with reality.

"Capital punishment is commanded by God"

God... the "turn the other cheek" guy. The "blessed are the Meek" guy. The "he who is free from guilt throw the first stone" guy. The "forgive our trespasses as we forgive those who tresspass against us" guy. That God?

They don’t like that version of their god.

Funny thing is the persons they complain most about also pray to the same god, just in different language.
