And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.
Matthew 6:5-6
When you spread out your hands, I will hide my eyes from you; even though you make many prayers, I will not listen; your hands are full of blood.
Isaiah 1:15

None of those motherfuckers are going to heaven.
“Dear God, thank you for Trump, ICE, and Alligator Auschwitz. Please let our reich last a thousand years.”
Disgusting pieces of shit. Reminds me of Jesus calling out the pharisees for praying in public, performatively. Not to mention they are going to ruin people’s lives with that bill! Poor people are going to die so they can cut taxes for the rich!
Right before they pass some abysmal legislation that would make Jesus weep
I’m pretty sure he’d skip weeping and go straight for the whip and upending of tables.
Oh please white Jesus and white God. Bless us while we take food from the mouths of millions. Take Healthcare from millions of infirm. And life itself from those evil brown people both here and around the world.
Amen. /s
They’re not praying, they’re huddling to come up with another evil plan.
Totally performative. Just a bunch of assholes.
It’s worse than that. They’re praying very sincerely to be successful in taking any money and assistance away from poor people, children, and the elderly, and transferring it to the already wealthy. And of course prayer granted. I’m just so sad that the only hell that exists is the one they’ve created on earth, and it’s the one they make for everyone but themselves to live in.
Why are they praying in a huddle? Do they all shout in unison “GO TEAM” afterwards ?
Don’t you also have separation of church and state? Wasn’t that what you were founded on?
It’s so the microphones can’t catch the stuff they’re praying to be forgiven for.

Church and state have been separated.
They simply joined the Church of State.
They have found a way to make praying to the magic man in the sky even more ridiculous.
separation of church and state? NoSaw this somewhere else in lemmy.
If these people have their way, the USA will become a religious autocracy that respects human rights on a level comparable to that in Iran.
But only for men. Women will be treated like in Afghanistan.
Hey, guys, I don’t think Jesus would approve of cuts to Medicaid and Medicare, but keep pretending that you are holier than me.
If Jesus were to come today they’ll deport him go El Salvador.
In their view, he would. They believe that Jesus wants people to give directly to charity, not to create government programs for it.
You weren’t there, you can’t say that, you don’t know that for sure.
Edit: Are you fucking kidding me, people!? /S
These people think all compassion and “wokeness” is preformative because everything in their lives is preformative.
Am I the only one finding this disgusting?
That’s the word that came to my mind
I think there’s a biscuit that they’re all looking at
Alright boys, whoever takes away the most rights gets the last one!
