MAGA Evangelicals want to turn the clock back to the 12th Century, and rid the United States of 'infidels and non-believers'.
There is nothing in which Men more deceive themselves than in what the World calls Zeal. There are so many Passions which hide themselves under it, and so many Mischiefs arising from it, that some have gone so far as to say it would have been for the Benefit of Mankind if it had never been reckoned in the Catalogue of Virtues. It is certain, where it is once Laudable and Prudential, it is an hundred times Criminal and Erroneous; nor can it be otherwise, if we consider that it operates with equal Violence in all Religions, however opposite they may be to one another, and in all the Subdivisions of each Religion in particular.

"13. Hegseth thus represents a policy of regime change. Trump’s nomination of Hegseth is best understood as part of a decapitation strike against the republic. A Christian Reconstructionist war on Americans led from the Department of Defense is likely to break the United States."

"12. Hegseth, according to his books, could be counted upon to ignore threats to America from abroad, and to use a purged and politicized military against 'enemies within.' This is consistent with Trump's avowed intention to build a kind of dictatorship on the ruins of a dysfunctional government."

"10. Hegseth, a Christian Reconstructionist, believes that Americans should be governed not by law or by the Constitution but by God -- as interpreted of course by Hegseth and his friends.
11. Hegseth calls for a 'holy war' and a 'crusade' against Americans who think differently than he does because 'God wills it.' Trump is the pretext: Hegseth wants 'to make crusade great again."'

"5. Hegseth never notes that the politicized Russian army meets all of his standards perfectly, but is is ineffective and commits war crimes.
6. Hegseth never notes that the Ukrainian army, which does have women in combat, and is not politicized in the way he would like, has overperformed."

"2. Hegseth has zero notion of which other countries might threaten America or how. In his books this is simply not a subject, beyond a few clichés.
3. Hegseth does not believe in alliances. For him, 'NATO is a great example of dumb globalism.'
4. Hegseth wants a political army that bans women from combat roles, is purged of 'cowardly generals,' and is anti-woke."

When Timothy Snyder speaks, I listen. Today, he outlines how Trump's nomination of Pete Hegseth represents 13 steps to national destruction. Here's the posting in toto:
"1. Pete Hegseth, Trump's nominee for secretary of defense, has no qualifications for the job. He has never run a large organization and has no national security expertise."

Fighting demons: The #NewApostolicReformation is waging a #HolyWar against #democracy
It was satisfying to watch #BYU football players tackle hard, stopping players at the point of contact.
But also, what an amazing ending. #OklahomaState scored a TD with 1:13 left in the game, deflating the fans. It looked bad when the Cougars were on 4th and 7 with 42 seconds left, but they made it. On their last two plays on offense, they went 62 yards to score a TD with just 11 seconds left.
The renewal of the #HolyWar with #UtahUtes is going to be a special game.
The Crusades were a series of medieval-era military expeditions sanctioned by the #Catholic Church to conquer religiously significant territories in the Eastern Mediterranean. Yes, the followers of so-called "religions of peace" openly stated that they would kill millions to keep the Holy Land in the hands of their religion.

Israel is committing genocide for their jihad. They won't say it aloud, but duhhh, it's a War to "reclaim" their "holy land," written about in their "holy" books.
It's a jewish #HolyWar aka #jihad
@Ronald wat jammer dat er geen #holywar bordje zit in de emoticons.
De mensen uit de comments hebben in zekere zin gelijk. Als je goed #VI of #VIM of #Emacs beheerst is een editor zoals #nano een vertragende factor.
Voor de chauvinisten hier, Vim is een Nederlandse uitvinding! Jammer dat de uitvinder overleden is: https://nluug.nl/nieuws/bram-moolenaar-overleden/

That great and much publicized biblical text, John 3:16, came up in the church’s lectionary this Lent, as many worshippers may recall. Here it is, in part: “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten son…”
