Republicans always double down on ignorance and smugness. She doesn't believe some people didn't know about death but it's a good opportunity to shit on those same people that gave her limited power (which took a rocket ship straight to her head).

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! 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.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

I suggest she goes first.
Inb4 they all still vote for her cuz they've been brainwashed that they have to vote the party line no matter what
tell me how it's not a death cult again
Can I interest you in a nice pint of bleach?
Mmmmmhmmm, berry flavor
No Rapture for her then.
Is she volunteering, or…..?
I'm living forever, she can go die if she wants, she should give up her medical from her gov job.
I am surprised she didn't refer to her constituents complaints as "squealing".
Don't be in such a hurry to meet Jesus, Senator, because He's going to cast you into the flaming pit you've been digging your whole life with every act of greed and heartlessness.
Religion is societal cancer
You first, bitch.
You first, Senator Bitchface. Go ahead, we'll wait.
Religion has always been a way to convince the poor to die for the rich. "Your rewards will come in the next life. Please kill yourself working."
Even Buddhism has the philosophy of suffering in this life will be repaid in the next. Fuck all that shit. There's no fucking reward, just death. Make sure you don't die carrying someone else's debt.

Not all Buddhism. Zen Buddhism, for example, is very clear that it's all about how you live right now, not later, and has nothing to do with reincarnation myths. Unfortunately, with Buddhism, Christianity and all religions, the dumber varieties tend to be the loudest and most popular.
Then let's say more specifically, religions promoted and encouraged by the rich and powerful. The ones who whip the mob into a frenzy and then are like, "rah rah! You go guys! I'll be right behind you, I just have to wash my grass first. Cleanliness is next to godliness. Yeah, don't wait up for me."
Yeah; for any faith system, you’ll get someone attempting to exploit it to maintain their wealth and power.
Eventually, the entire underlying belief structure that’s usually based on something real becomes overlaid with a prescriptive ideology designed to help a small group of people get their way.
The most promoted
How does this employee get to say that to the bosses?
I mean she wouldnt say to that to the TACO in chief.
She abuses the fuck out of restaurant staff and tips with those fake $20s with scripture on the back, no question.
Wow, she’s talking about embracing Jesus Christ in the same statement as taking away poor people’s healthcare to give tax cuts to billionaires. These Christians love to wear their mascot like a badge while completely contradicting the explicit lessons of the book.
I think we read different books... The Bible I grew up on endorses slavery
Dude, I’m an atheist, but the old testament is a complete contradiction of the new testament practically. The teachings of Jesus, who these idiots always put front and center, does speak tirelessly on helping the poor and telling the rich to give up their wealth to help others. I was raised catholic in a catholic school and I saw the contradictions as a kid they are so blatant. I’m just pointing out their hypocrisy in being so flippant about poor people suffering to give tax cuts to the rich while waving their Jesus saves bull shit.
Jesus endorsed slavery. That's all I need to know (though unfortunately, I know a lot more and it's all trash).
I liked the random acts of foot massage bit though
You like the bible because you're a conservative and it validates your beliefs. I like the bible because I'm a foot fetishist. We are not the same
I am always baffled by how a book that endorses blatantly evil behavior is the one these idiots always trot around as an THE example of morality. If abuse, rape, and murder are morality then I'll choose to be immoral and not rape or murder anyone.

Because they don't actually believe in anything but greed. They use religion as a tool to gain power. Hypocrisy be damned, they couldn't care less. It's the religious idiots that refuse to see this that kill me... But then again it's completely understandable, we are stuck in a 2 party system where it's "the ultimate evil" vs "people I generally agree with but don't particularly like." (That goes for whatever side you're on. We all see the politicians the same, except for the insane Trump cultists.)
Christianity has become incredibly perverted. So many of those who identify with it would go to hell if it were real.
become
Lol right
The Bible is pretty explicit about that as well. You would think that warning would prevent some of this behavior but here we are.
sadly if you study up on more than the passages taught on sunday, much of this destruction is in line with jesus and the rest of the bible.
The Bible contradicts itself so much it's hard to know what to believe.
They’ll throw six or seven figures at some charity owned by another rich asshole friend and call themselves Saints. I assume that’s how they trick themselves into thinking they’re anything but parasites.
