Charlie "Empathy is Evil" Kirk?
Yes. Remember, they worship Supply Side Jesus, not the one described in the Bible.
Angry Jesus. He is out beating up the gays right now.
"13th Disciple" is code for "2nd Judas"
Charlie would be wrestling that guy for the bag of silver coins.
I grew up religious and don't think I'd heard that. Is it a Catholic thing?
Republicans pretending to be "Christians" never ceases to amuse
At what point do you admit that you're just licking assholes?
Holy fuck, I am so sick of this.
Come on, a Palestinian man preaching love and compassion ? The whole lot of them would call him a communist terrorist...
If Jesus came back and came to America, he would be shot within 10 minutes of opening his mouth and 100 years later a new religion would be started with a Glock as it's symbol.
Who says their God hasn't already tried to come back dozens of times but he keeps getting bombed because he's middle eastern
What if the Messiah is like the avatar cycle and every generation the Messiah comes back to teach the world shit.
He wouldn't have needed 30 pieces of silver.
Have these people just never actually read the Bible, or something?
Very likely not. It's not an easy book to get through. Even the most devout will usually tap out at the begats.
No but they thump it all the time
Acquaintance from high school married a preacher man, "met" him on FaceBook. Very intelligent and well educated man. His doctorate in divinity is real, he worked for it, absolute expert. His arguments were well crafted and we loved poking each other. Plus, we were both hot pepper fanatics and growers. :)
Here's the point: That's the only Christian I've met in life that could actually debate Biblical views. I can turn most of them into a raging, spitting, cursing mess with a dozen questions, and they almost never engage for the whole dozen.
Guess I should include my best friend. He was a conservative Southern Baptist, very angry when I announced I had turned to atheism, though he was fine with me as a deist. LOL, I corrupted that fucker. Now he's an atheist, liberal, and supports gay rights. But again, he's an exception. His best traits are that he's intelligent, way more so than I, and best yet, he can admit he's wrong and is willing to examine his beliefs. Exceptions proving rules and whatnot.

If they had, they'd know there was a 13th disciple named Matthias. I'm not even kidding, it's in the Book of Acts. He was selected to replace Judas, and is described as having been with them since the beginning.

Reality is meaningless to these people. They just make up whatever, it’s a massive circlejerk.
American Far-Right Evangelicalism is the biggest heresy in 21st century Christianity and possibly the most wide spread heresy in the history of the religion.

And lo, Charles did look down upon the leper, and he did pronounce "ugh, get a job!"
The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.
Actually, correct me if I'm wrong but that was Matthias who replaced Judas Iscariot after he gave himself a neck stretch.
Yup. He brought the total living disciples back up to 12, but was the 13th to be chosen.
MAGA is a bad book club.
Judas 2: Electric Bugaloo
Jesus already had a 13th apostle... Dude doesn't know about Matthias.
While Matthias was only taking the chair left by Judas, Charlie would have really continued with the true legacy of Judas. 🙏

If you think Jesus got pissed with the money lenders at the temple he would have completely lost his shit with Charlie Kirk. Even Judas would have been grossed out.

The goal of Christianity is to convince Indo-Europeans that they have a divine right to use the entire world and universe as their frontier for the endless pursuit of personal sovereignty. It's a scam to convince a large portion of the population that they're in on being a "chosen one" so they'll coerce themselves into expanding the tax base of whatever the major empire of the time is.
Only with "Republican Jesus". You know, the white guy wearing a toga, a cross, and an AR15.

Wasn't Judas the 13th disciple?
No, he was one of the twelve disciples.
Why the fuck are they riding this dead dick so hard? He was a horrible debater, held repulsive beliefs even to some people on the right, and wasn't even really that popular. He was a laughing stock to the majority of people and a perfect poster child for ignorant racist idiots the world over. Like, if you're going to martyr someone, pick someone who stands up to scrutiny.

Imagine being Steven Crowder right now.
To be fair, any garden variety conservative could be an disciple. Judas, specifically.
They openly ignore and even violate Jesus' words and values regularly. Just the other day someone in the senate shouted "silent prayers bring silent results" and forced everyone to pray aloud.
I immediately thought of Matthew 6:5. If you're going to believe in fairy tales, maybe you should read the whole book first.
Judas, specifically.
Strongly disagree. Judas felt shame, and hung himself. Conservatives feel no shame and would never repent.
(Unless of course you read the other chapter of the fairy tale that says he didn’t kill himself but instead fell into a hole and exploded or something)

Because of his position on social issues?

If you haven't read his wiki, now is a great time.
I forgot Jesus said to love thy neighbor, but only if they’re white so you know they’re not a DEI hire.
Hell, surprisingly, still has room for these fuckers.
