Dennis Hastert, the nation’s longest-serving Republican House speaker, whose own political legacy was forever fouled by allegations that he molested high school
I was raised as a Missouri synod lutheran. Very conservative. I say raised. I’m not active in the church anymore for obvious reasons. I actually read the bible. And didn’t want to be any part of those hypocritical chucklefucks. I know you are joking. But I think we can all rest more comfortably knowing that if there’s a hell this dumbass is in it.
rest more comfortably knowing that if there’s a hell
The problem with hell is it undermines all that Christian rot about forgiveness, pacifism, and kindness. Jesus isn’t just a God of redemption, he’s a God of infinite punishment and never-ending vengeance. And Hastert can absolutely accept Jesus and get a ticket to ride. The Holocaust Jews on the other hand, not so lucky. When I realized that all those Jews went straight from Hitler’s oven into Jesus’ oven, it permanently damaged my faith.
I think it was Esperanza Rising or some other book that had kids talking about this idea, that if you accept Jesus and repent your sins at the last moment you’re good to get into heaven. They were worried their friend who died wouldn’t get into Heaven because he still might have had unwashed sins.
Idk the bible, but is that accurate? You can do whatever you want, and as long as you confess and say “my bad” you’re good?
Read the Bible… This guy went to heaven.
Edit: guys, I’m not saying this guy was good… I’m saying Christian heaven is full of the worst people.
Good grief…

Just in case there isn’t a hell, let’s punish pedophiles and fascists in the here and now.
1000%. And that’s definitely something no one should forget about Denny hastert. He was a boy hungry pedophile. And revered by the GOP for decades

in some sects, yeah that’s how it works, with the general idea being that their god is not an idiot and not fooled by insincere deathbed conversions.
I’m glad I’m not religious, that sounds stressful AF
You gotta choose (or make) a religion where all you do is go to the beach and eat sandwiches. That sounds like a nice religion.
I got it. There’s a bunch of black/white absolutists around these parts that are incapable of understanding obvious satire.
It’s a known issue.
Are you citing the book of fairy tales like it has anything to do with real life?
Religion is a mental disorder
