5 days agoInteresting that the beast is said to have seven heads in Revelation. There’s also 7 Trump Towers with his name on them:
- Trump Tower, NYC
- Trump International Hotel and Tower, Chicago
- Trump Towers, Istanbul
- Trump International Hotel and Tower, Toronto
- Trump World Tower, New York
- Trump Towers, Sunny Isles Beach
- Trump Tower, Manila
I’m a UU, so I don’t fully subscribe to the Bible as perfect and wholly divine or authoritative. But a bunch of people are wearing red colored Satan hats with a slogan on their forehead while voting for an adulterer, glutton, slothful, raging, envious, greedy, prideful “politician.” This man is so departed from Christ… I don’t get it, besides lies, propaganda, and accelerationism.
I was an atheist for the last 20 years and recently converted to Unitarian Universalist.
I would say that in the west, this characterization tends to be true. But I do think there are honest faith communities acting with good intent. Unfortunately, there are few.
