I suppose you think that everyone will end up in Heaven without giving up a thing.
If the loving god the father that you are supposed to believe in - the kind an gentle Jesus etc - exists then everyone would get to this heaven place. That's what even the current pope quietly believes.
Nice people don't believe in nasty places.

I see that you're disagreeing with the last few popes and current Catholic doctrine again. How come you get to make the rules on the Catholic Church's behalf?

So, the clown has COVID. Too much to hope that he'll self-medicate with bleach I suppose.

He'd better have some proper symptoms then get better, anything else is a bad outcome, the worst being that he stays symptom free.

I see Trump now claims to understand Corona virus. He 'gets' it. If he only gets things that he's got, maybe he'll now get free health care?
Perhaps he should black-up?
Not that it's all about him of course.

This is the most unbelievable story. If ever there was an argument that god, intelligence and religion are in no way related this is it.
Bishop David is the latest person among the top clergy to get the virus, raising concerns in the Balkans that the Orthodox Church could be helping to spread the virus with its doctrine that true believers can't get infected during Holy Communion and other church services.
But the two most senior Serb religious leaders the patriarch and Bishop Amfilohije died after COVID-19 complications. They both downplayed the dangers of the pandemic, avoided wearing masks in public and Amfilohije described large religious gatherings as God’s vaccine.
Thousands of people on Sunday attended the funeral of the Serbian patriarch. Irinej, 90, who died on Friday, three weeks after attending the funeral of Amfilohije in neighboring Montenegro during which mourners kissed his remains lying in an open casket.
On Sunday, many mourners and most priests holding the funeral service in the massive St. Sava Temple in the Serbian capital, Belgrade, didn’t wear masks or adhere to social distancing inside the church, kissing the glass shield covering Irinej’s remains and even using a single spoon during Holy Communion.
In Greece, the powerful Orthodox Church has insisted this practice can't transmit the disease as it is the body and blood of Christ.

All 10 living defence secretaries have written warning against using the military in anything to do with Trump's election dispute. It sounds like he’s plotting something. What a turd he is.

One guy can do an awful lot of damage.
I really hope that ordinary Republicans finally understand what they've done.

Well the republicans are now screwed for a decade at least. Trump and his fanatics will run against them and split the party.
I wonder if the democrats fuck even this up. They certainly have the talent to.

So the bully Trump is now shown to be the coward Trump and disowned his followers that acted under his instructions.
The democratic equivalent of being dragged out of a drainage pipe.
Do you not have a public order offence like our incitement to riot?
