The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

What MAGA "Christians" support...

Guns...Guns are the leading cause of death for American children. How many died today? Anyone? If you vote republican blood is on your hands. Will God overlook the suffering and death MAGA voters have caused?

Child poverty...child poverty is up sharply, because Republicans in Congress (plus Manchin and Sinema) refused to renew the expanded Child Tax Credit in President Biden's American Rescue Plan.
Will God overlook the suffering MAGA voters have caused?
"Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless; maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed." 45 (Psalm 82:3)

A President (Trump) who is a wealthy, racist, an adulterer, a rapist and a proven liar. Will God overlook the suffering MAGA voters have caused?
Proverbs 12:22: "Lying lips are an abomination to the Lord, but those who act faithfully are his delight." "You shall not commit adultery." "Adulterers God will judge."
"It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."

A MAGA movement that is steeped in fear and hatred...mass deportation, "law and order", and policing gender identity. IE hatred of minorities, LBGT folks, the poor.
John 3:15: "Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life remaining in him."

A minimum wage that is exactly where it was 15 years ago, $7.25 because the GOP has blocked all attempts to raise it. Keeping the poor, poor. Will God overlook the suffering MAGA voters have caused?
Proverbs 14:31: "Whoever oppresses a poor man insults his Maker, but he who is generous to the needy honors him."
(Fortunately the minimum wage is higher in blue states, where folks also have better educations and higher life expectancies.)

Jesus said, "I was a stranger and you invited me in." MAGA says, "you are a stranger, you are poisoning our blood and we will round you up and separate you from your children."

"I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that his justice cannot sleep forever." ~Thomas Jefferson
