Just heard someone refer to Hegseth and his Crusaderbros as "Yeehadists" and now I can't stop snickering.

Die Armee Gottes Das Pentagon hat sich längst verabschiedet von dem, was man früher Säkularismus nannte. Pete Hegseth, Kriegsminister unter Trump, hat das Schauspiel beendet. Nicht die Säkularität, versteht sich – die...

Everything in the US is "your xyz, your problem."

U.S. Troops Were Told Iran War Is for “Armageddon,” Return of Jesus Advocacy group reports commanders giving similar messages at more than 30 installations in every branch of the military

EXCLUSIVE: At more than 30 installations, U.S. commanders told troops the war on Iran is a Christian war.

The Military Religious Freedom Foundation has been “inundated” with more than 110 complaints.

One NCO said they were told the U.S. war is to bring about Armageddon and the return of Jesus…

Let's talk about the real problem here... These nincompoops think the are bringing about Armageddon and Jesus return for a whole group of people who don't believe Jesus is the (or their) Messiah...

I suspect that I'm Lawful Evil on that chart. 🤣

Because killing the leader of a religious group and turning him into a martyr generally suffices to keep that movement quiet... right? RIGHT? 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

The violent death and perceived martyrdom of religious leaders seldom has a pacifying effect on a deeply religious people.

We're at the stage of the American story where the people are angry, starving, and ignored, the legions are poorly paid and exhausted, and where the stairs of the senate are looking suspiciously like a nice place to ambush the leader.

"Et tu, JD?" would make for a fitting end to the story.

Oh, yes, killing religious figures has a proven track record of stopping religious movements. Definitely. 🙄

When bored, I'd either bite my pen or carve heavy metal logos in my schooldesk. That kid took things a bit too far.

Very cool 🤓

Damnit. I thought the Resistance would be easier, given that my office is on the 2nd floor. I was picturing Daleks.

I will have to revise my contingency plans...

I'm still of the opinion that we need to start referring to Atwood as "The Prophet." She got SO MUCH right. When will the Trump administration start paying her royalties?

So, according to this genius, humans have a future as food or soap. Great.

The comments in that thread are excellent. 🤣

Is there really a 'quiet revival' of religion among Gen Z? A fierce debate is taking place about whether there really has been a revival in Christianity.

No quiet revival? Isn't this article 6 months too late?

Terrifying to hear people say the quiet, secretive parts out loud.

‘Viking' was a job description, not a matter of heredity, massive ancient DNA study shows Study reveals family histories of black-haired Vikings who set forth—and died—far from home

an interesting study that complements what historians have been saying for quite a while. people moved in the European Middle Ages, settled elsewhere. and genetics can tell where a person's ancestors came from but now which communities they belonged to #medievalsky

It's the only way to be sure.

I could empty an unattended tub of Haribo gummy sweets overnight, that's why I don't buy them.

But, yes, I know the feeling. I was always very underwhelmed by US chocolate, when I've visited. There's something about the chocolate itself, the butyric acid, which totally puts me off the stuff.

I love discovering new music that shocks or surprises me, and this woman just blew my ears off...

An amazing voice, with extraordinary peaks after 1:06 et 2:19. WOW.
