The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" 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.

Well, an on-topic atheist board post.

Funny how religion, in this case the Christian religion of the Prince of PEACE, can be turned into a force for evil.


Yes. If I were writing the script, I'd have Trump have a huge televised gathering on the plains of Texas where he speaks to the million person crowd while surrounded by high religious followers, 3%ers, Oath Keepers, and Neo Nazis line the lanes in the crowd - everyone has an AR-15. As the speech reaches a crescendo a bolt of lightning hits Trump and he is fried on the spot. MTG shouts Jewish Space Lasers and rather than see it is an act of God, the crowd decides it was done by the Deep State and turns on the media present. Some get confused and start firing at each other. A few thousand people are killed, soon blamed on FBI and Homeland security agitators. Roger Stone and Steve Bannon make furious predictions. The remaining media focus on Ivanka and Melania as different contenders for the throne outdo themselves for media attention. We must talk falsely now and the hour is getting late!
