Luke 1:51-53
God has shown strength with his arm;
he has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.
He has brought down the powerful from their thrones
and lifted up the lowly;
he has filled the hungry with good things
and sent the rich away empty.
May it be so.

Worst pageant ever.
Hard not to conclude from this montage that Donald Trump, the only repeated figure other than Santa Claus, is the Savior to which DHS is referring

America moves heaven and earth to accommodate conservative religious belief.
Still waiting for this country to even acknowledge give a nod to progressive or liberal religious convictions.

If POTUS can (re)direct funding to the military during a federal shutdown, what is to stop this POTUS from (re)directing payroll to only certain military service members (like those who agree to Sec Def’s revised code of ethics and the Chief of Command’s view of insurrection)?

And yet, I haven’t heard the Pope thank VP Vance once.
Eric Trump: "We're saving Christianity. We've saving God. We've saving the family unit. We're saving this nation. I mean, DEI is out of the window, Benny. You no longer have Colin Kaepernick kneeling for the national anthem. You no longer have Budweiser going woke as hell. All of this is dead."

You can’t make a martyr without pyrotechnics.
Charlie Kirk's grieving widow had just left the stage moments before the fireworks for Trump kicked off.
Just so wildly and blatantly inappropriate for a memorial service for someone else.
Fucking nuts.

It is curious to observe how some identify one as a political debater and others the same as divisive and dehumanizing.

There's a word from the Talmud on how one might grieve the death of an enemy.
After the waters of the Re(e)d Sea swallowed the Egyptian soldiers, a song broke out on the shores. Miriam led a song of divine deliverance. Finally, a barrier had emerged between the people and their enemies.

To begin with Genesis 1.1-2.4a is to encounter the divine chorus of “goodness” recognized in all of creation. It is also to understand ALL of humanity as made in the image of God (a plural being - “us” and “our”).
Christianity begins with a sacred affirmation of human identities - ALL identities.

To review the news of the administration on any particular day is to see again and again that this White House does not know nor care to expand the pie of abundance for everyone, but only devotes its attention to steal and deny wealth, prosperity, and even dignity for others to elevate himself.

It’s worth noting that the presence of military at our nation’s monuments is also filled with symbolism intent by this administration.
It is to conceal the ideals of wisdom and courage within our founders and national leaders and bring force and power to the foreground of every achievement.

REPORTER: Why are troops stationed here at Union Station and at the National Mall instead of areas where crime is higher?
JD VANCE: Crime is actually extremely high here at Union Station. You have vagrants.

There is always more present and shaping the world than divine will.
And while God’s will is understood in life, it is also fundamentally rooted in justice. Surviving an assassination attempt may be what the divine wills; horrific and cruel policies are certainly not.

Once again, fundamentalist Christianity cannot survive in the world but only in a bubble. SCOTUS granting religious exemption from the public is the government extending the bubble.
