I am a bit surprised that Christians didn't make a movie about Trump and his holy life. I mean, I would be interested in seeing their point of view of his years in the White House, how he was supposedly doing God's work, and how he was persecuted by the Deep State. Maybe he could be played by Stephen Baldwin

It's funny that if you want to know how the dark arts work, a Christian is your Go-to for information.

Thanks to Trump, Christian groups are convinced it's the apocalypse — and some are finding ways to profit
Any time there are natural disasters like major weather events and outbreaks of disease like COVID-19 or major international events such as the Russian invasion of Ukraine, it piques speculation about the Biblical end times. But that isn't what's causing an increase in interest of the end of the world, according to a new analysis.
“The reason it’s happening is the totalitarianism in the United States,” said retired theology professor Tommy Ice. “It’s because of the seemingly overnight decline of America, from our perspective. It’s a huge shift, the stealing of an election. When has that ever happened in the United States?”
There's the idea of Donald Trump's "stolen election" and somehow they think the senate races were "stolen" in Georgia too.
That, he said, was “lining up with what it is going to be like after the rapture of the church, where you have the Antichrist coming from Europe, who’s going to be the world ruler."
Ice thinks that the Holy Spirit is within each person and that is how they're protected from evil. Because secularism is growing across the globe, however, anarchy is about to take over, which has already led to the "stolen" 2020 election, he explained.
Trump likely didn't know that claiming his election was stolen by the "evil" so-called "deep state" would energize such groups, but it has.
"It’s hard to ignore how aligned this framing is with QAnon conspiracy theories, which place Trump and good Christians at odds with the blood-drinking, child-trafficking, Satan-worshiping elites running the country," the report also explained. "The QAnon theories often showcase a messianic figure (Trump) assembling an army of brave Christian followers to take on scheming demonic forces and ultimately win in one great triumphant battle ('the Storm')."

YouTube Christian preacher: ‘If God tells you to kill someone, yes, you should’
Mike Winger, a Christian preacher who runs a giant online ministry, recently said believers should listen to the voices in their heads if they believe God is telling them to kill someone.
On his YouTube show recently, Winger was asked by a viewer (at 1:28:45) what he thought about murderers who say God “made them do it”? Instead of dismissing all those killers as kooks, because God doesn’t actually speak to them, Winger took the opposite approach, saying it was always wise to listen to God… then included a caveat saying God probably wouldn’t ask you to kill anyone, as if that makes everything better.

Stupid things religious people say...
"I have a personal relationship with God!"
Oh really? So he teleports to your bedroom and talks to you? Where is he when you needed him during the times you were getting bullied?
