Have these people just never actually read the Bible, or something?
No but they thump it all the time
Read?
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.
No. They wait for people on TV/Facebook to tell them what it says.
Very likely not. It’s not an easy book to get through. Even the most devout will usually tap out at the begats.
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.
Well he did a good job of upholding his PR for those who are dumb enough to believe it because he deceptively edited his videos for them.
Charlie Kirk totally PWNS 25 stupid crybaby liberal students
They are using his strong religious beliefs as a lighting rod. If you slam Charlie Kirk, you’re basically slamming Christianity. It is easily used as a weapon.
oh that’s pretty easy. i’m against genocide.
Some dead people become martyrs and that has happened here.
That dumb fucking shooter.
doesnt seem like kirk is the martyr, but more like the shooter is sorta becoming one, because MSM and the gop cant afford to blame one of tier own.
Apparently that’s what they respect. Make of that what you will.
Social effect, easy martyr. Fascism loves this.
they seem to be doubling down the fact the shooter was even further right than he is, the gop ,trump and MSM cant afford to alienate the right by blaming a right winger. its simple they cant blame thier own people. so they have make something up like tying obscure reference of the shooter associating with the “trans” people.
Because of his position on social issues?

If you haven’t read his wiki, now is a great time.
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.
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)
During Patel’s hearing, Nehls said, “Charlie Kirk was a man of faith … first and foremost, he loved his Lord Jesus, he loved his family. Beautiful wife, beautiful children. Just a remarkable honorable man that was silenced by this assassin’s bullet. I would say if Charlie Kirk lived in the biblical times, he would have been the 13th disciple.”

I read that article the other day. Excellent characterization of Kirk.

Lol, these fucking people. How can they not just get completely sick of themselves. I guess it takes having a monkey’s level of self-awareness. I wonder if when they look in the mirror they get confused and aggressive at the thing staring back at them.
edit: I was very harsh on monkeys in this comment and I want to apologize to monkeys everywhere
“Dead guys wife is hot. Kids, too.”
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.
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.
And lo, Charles did look down upon the leper, and he did pronounce “ugh, get a job!”
Only with “Republican Jesus”. You know, the white guy wearing a toga, a cross, and an AR15.
Don’t drag poor togas into this!
Are they just going around trying to one up each other? What a ridiculous thing to say.
That is how fascism works. You must constantly increase your loyalty and worship or else you’re at risk of being the next one attacked.
Charlie “Empathy is Evil” Kirk?
Yes. Remember, they worship Supply Side Jesus, not the one described in the Bible.

“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?
The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.
