As we all know, God shows his heavenly love by shortening the lives of your political opponents

jeffw OP ,

You ever hear an evangelical talk about Katrina?

Only the good die young. Democrats live forever.

Jimmy Carter also loves Jesus a hell of a lot more than any Republican, as you can tell by his actions. If all Christians were like Jimmy Carter I might actually like them.

If God loved Trump as much as Republicans think he does Trump would be a beetle.

President Carter was the best and most decent president and human being the US has had in a long time and will probably ever have.

propaganja ,

What’s the basis for that argument, especially in refutation of his detractors?

czardestructo ,

Start by reading up and talking about the Carter Center. I’ve been donating to them for many years because they take a top down charity approach instead of just tossing money at a low level problem that never actually fixes the systemic reasons for which its a problem to begin with. The Cater Center takes an intelligent, high level look at how to ease human suffering and considers if its tangible to address from top down then DOES it. Take for example the Guinea Worm, a painful and sometimes disabling affliction that effected 3+ million people in 1985. In 2022 there was only 13 reported cases. It only took education and giving locals tools to project themselves from the larva. There are many examples of this that Carter through the Carter Center has left the world a substantially better place than he found it.

Do you want him to croak this weekend? Because this Is how you tempt fate and he falls a breaks a hip.

jeffw OP ,

Dude has been on hospice for like 10 months, it’s not like he’s thriving

luckyhunter ,

Was he ever thriving?

Cort ,

I feel like it was only a few years ago that he was building houses with habitat for humanity. Not something most people his age would be capable of.

Rusticus ,

At this point, Republicans are the biggest non believers on the planet. Everything they think or due is driven by hate. How is that consistent with Biblical teachings?

PeterPoopshit ,

Global warming isn’t in the bible therefore it doesn’t exist (or maybe it is, even Christians don’t read that shit)

Critical_Insight ,

Everything they think or due is driven by hate.

That’s not very far off from politically active people in general nowdays, especially on social media. People seem much more willing to bond over the common hatred of an outgroup, rather than mutual love for something. I mean, here we are shitting on the republican party on a heavily left leaning forum with daily threads about Twitter, Reddit, Elon, Spez, Google, Billionaires, Capitalism etc. Very rarely I see as passionate discussions about common projects we’re all equally excited about.

Henry Kissenger turned 100 this year. Make of that what you will.

jeffw OP ,

It’s a shower thought, not a well-reasoned evidence-based argument lol

30mag ,

My comment isn’t much of an argument, just an observation. Lol, maybe I should be posting things like that in im12andthisisdeep? I don’t know.

DoucheBagMcSwag ,

How is he not fucking dead yet

30mag ,

Only the good die young, evil lives forever.

reddig33 ,

A reminder that Kissinger is still alive. Not sure this argument holds up.

dinckelman ,

Hate ages you pretty fast

foggy ,

Curmudgeons have a way of outliving us all.

givesomefucks ,

Rightwing religious extremists are basically a death cult that doesn’t suicide…

Dying is “god bringing us home” and something they are usually happy about.

If you think the only thing standing between you and an eternity of a heavenly afterlife is your own death, a long life is a bad thing.

"only the good die young"

DozensOfDonner ,

Yeah they’ll find a way like that around any argument

Patquip ,

Nah they probably think since Jimmy Carter is a one term president that God keeps him around as a way to perpetually shame him.

RvTV95XBeo ,

Great, so we’re stuck with Trump for potentially decades?

Long stints in jail are expensive.
