The Religion Thread

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

I think that's the MAGA congressional community, but there is some overlap.
Sharing is caring.
Orgy motto?
Did you ever wonder what you'd have done during the rise of fascism? You're doing it right now.

Shocking. 🙄
Former Asheville Christian Academy coach pleads guilty after accused sex act with student

A former Asheville Christian Academy coach has pleaded guilty to sexual battery, according to a Dec. 15 court document.

As News 13 previously reported, Samuel Jason Ingle was arrested for "unlawfully, willfully, and feloniously" engaging in a sex act with a teenage student at the school on Feb. 1, 2024, according to an arrest warrant.

Ingle has since been sentenced to a minimum of 60 days of confinement and up to 18 months of probation, according to the December 2025 court document.
Slap on the wrist?

A one-time offense by a single bad apple? Hardly.
... After Ingle's arrest, a civil lawsuit was filed against Asheville Christian Academy and a list of defendants, including the former head of school, the "director of social, emotional and spiritual care," the former associate head of school/head of Upper School, an Upper School teacher, and Ingle.

The lawsuit claims that employees neglected to report and intervene with the sexual abuse taking place over several months and during trips organized by the school.

The lawsuit alleges that staff "unconscionably allowed this egregious and outrageous conduct to continue without taking any steps to report, intervene, investigate, discipline, pursue criminal charges, stop the grooming, abuse and exploitation, or take any other steps" to protect the plaintiff.
:roll:

Pentagon threatens the Pope

https://newrepublic.com/post/208820/pen ... nald-trump
Days after Pope Leo XIV delivered his State of the World speech, Undersecretary of Defense for Policy Elbridge Colby summoned Cardinal Christophe Pierre, the Vatican’s U.S. representative, to a closed-door Pentagon meeting for a bitter lecture.

“The United States,” Colby said, according to a blistering new report by The Free Press, “has the military power to do whatever it wants in the world. The Catholic Church had better take its side.”

One U.S. official present at the meeting brought up the Avignon papacy, a period in the 14th century in which the French monarchy bent the Catholic Church into submission, ordering an attack on Pope Boniface VIII that led to his downfall and subsequent death and forcing the papacy to relocate from Rome to Avignon, a region inside France.

...

But the blatant intimidation tactic is the first of its kind ever made by American officials to the Catholic Church. There are no public records of any previous meetings between Vatican and U.S. officials at the Pentagon, let alone an instance in which the world power suggested that it could force the Bishop of Rome into captivity.

The Vatican was so alarmed by the Pentagon’s warning that Pope Leo cancelled his plans to visit the U.S. later in the year, reported Hale, who noted that “many in the Vatican saw the Pentagon’s reference to an Avignon papacy as a threat to use military force against the Holy See.”
Holy shit.

Well, there was a faction of the Catholic church that supported the Nazis or assisted them in various ways. Colby (son of the Colby who came up with the Phoenix program in Vietnam) seems to be courting the Vatican for the new trump version of fascism. WINNING!

Idk if you guys are on social media, but some official government accounts are pretty bizarre. Here's some screen shots from the official US Dept of Homeland Security account.

God wants you to die. It's why I try to stay out of his way.
