Probably the best news I’ve read so far today.
Good
Oh no. Well anyways
Bullshit. They own more land than damn near any other entity on the planet. The whole celibacy thing was so the priest could not take the church owning and give them to non-church kids.
Hurting for money? Sell some land. Then pay for the abuse lawsuits some more.
Thoughts and prayers.
Wait, nope, fresh out.
Are these bastards really thinking we are going to believe their mafia like enterprise is supported by charitable donations?
lol
Maybe they can set up a loops server and just do remote mass shorts? They’ll have to jump for jebus with different dresses.
They might need to auction off one of those reptilian skeletons they have in the secret basement.
Those grifters have had a good run for two millenia. As scams go, I’d say it was pretty successful - and still is, sadly.
Oh, no. Guess they’ll have to sell some of those golden trinkets they have
Just ask god for money? I mean, isn’t it omnisicent and omnipotent?
Good for them, I guess?
"Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.”
But, but The eye of a needle was a market with a small gate and if you only had a reasonable load on your camels then they could pass through so it’s actually ok for rich people to exist /s
That cope from Conservative Christians™️ is always funny. Similar statements show up in the Talmud. A large animal passing through the eye of a needle was a common idiom in Jewish culture at the time to demonstrate impossibility.
I wish they had just said, “look bro, I don’t even need an idiom. I’m just going to tell you. If you’re rich, you’re going to Hell. You can’t exploit people and hoard resources and be in God’s good graces at the same time. Just being rich means that you’re ok walking by misery and not helping. Bro, you can’t have it like that.”
I was expecting this exact quote. Never fails to put a smile on my face.
Bootstraps bitches. Pull em up!
