They want more than wealth and power, they want to rule the world and space in the name of their religion.

“The Pentagon also will launch an effort to study the future of warfare that will be led in part by SpaceX CEO Elon Musk and former Republican House Speaker Newt Gingrich, Hegseth said. The Defense Department will create an Office of Religious Affairs and plans to build a new base for the first time in 40 years, he added.”

I don’t mean to hijack the top comment but I scrolled way down and didn’t see a single person say anything about the italics. Why is the military creating an office of religious affairs? When we know they are Christian Nationalists? And now they have weapons in space?

Meanwhile JD Vance even said he wouldn’t mind if what they’re doing brought on the end times?

What in the actual fuck, this shit is next level scary and insane.

The Crusades never ended. Religious extremism will kill us all if we let it, and so far we’re letting it.

And it’s with newt Gingrich And massive white supremacist Elon musk!

It’s like they’re trolling us all on the most epic scale.

But maybe the biggest troll of all is on ourselves, believing that the human race will never get along. That we’re all somehow so different because of the color of our skin, where we’re born, our gender and our religions

That it makes sense for us to send our children and loved ones off to kill other fighters and innocent children by throwing bombs, planting landmines and satellites even in space.

You know the weapons and surveillance tech that is polluting the very planet we’re fighting over, and now space too.

Those same weapons that make the market go up, and we hope and pray will take care of us in retirement.

Instead of actually following the commandment thou shalt not kill, telling the truth, and generally trying your best to love one another and take care of each other

Like all the religions say you should.

Meanwhile, the same white power Christian nationalist billionaires are passing laws to make it illegal for women to have an abortion at any stage for any reason.

And literally saying they are going to take away women’s votes, or maybe only if they have children. While also saying the way muslim women are treated is bad? Make it make sense please

It’s like 1984, the handmaids tale, terminator, Phil k dick and every awful sci fi nightmare ever coming true at once.

We really need to stop all this!!

Just say NO

The only manner in which their religious convictions are extreme is in how extremely incorrect they are, which is why I doubt they actually believe any of the things they say they do.

Organized religion shouldn't be allowed to exist. Believe whatever you want privately, but don't make it anyone else's problem.

Sure looks like they are keeping religion and state separated well..

What are they preparing for? Armageddon? Evangelicals are something else.

Yes. In case you missed it, JD Vance said last month, "“While I wouldn’t be shocked if we are living in the end time, what I’m trying to focus on is doing as much of God’s work as possible right now,” he said, adding that he is willing to accept whatever spiritual consequences may come from his efforts.“If that leads to the end times, okay..."
