Meet the Trump Davidians
-
Everyone's a critic. Maybe I should just give up and copy-and-paste stuff from deranged websites.
I’d stay clear of deranged websites in addition to coffee and donut shop gossips.

Wouldn't hurt.
Probably wouldn't hurt either one of you to walk in a church. A Christian church. Where people actually pray. Where people have faith that prayer changes things. Where it makes a difference.
God hears all prayers. He answers all prayers. Sometimes His answer is what we want. Sometimes it isn't. Sometimes, it's just silence.
But He hears.
Take comfort in that fact...

Been there, done it.
I have no problem with churches, they’re like any other man made construct. Some are magnificent structures. While others…not so much. What I cannot abide though is the people who occupy the pews and those who harangue the crowds. A bunch of nosey busybodies.
My human spirit prefers a quiet walk in the forest or along a lakeshore. Contemplating the majesty of a mountain works as well. Can’t get closer to the mystery of the divine than nature itself.

I prayed that Donald Trump was going to get eaten alive by locusts, but apparently that's not in line with modern Christian teaching, since I was struck by lightning on the way home.
It really fucking hurt.
I know, I know, I shouldn't make jokes, we're busy saving the world here. Still.....

Also, if the answer to a prayer is just silence, that's not really an answer. It's completely indistinguishable from what happens if there's nobody there. And honestly, if He can't be arsed to fix the Middle East, I'm pretty sure He doesn't care about helping me with my saxophone playing.
Let's put it this way, if my wife asks me for something, and all she gets is silence, then there's likely to be a bit of a scene. If I did it a few times, my house would resemble the Middle East.
Again, don't take this shit seriously. It's Sunday night and I have to leave for work at 5am tomorrow morning. I'm about to have a beer.

That’s why I prefer a walk in the forest to the dissonance of organised religion and its hordes of annoying and meddlesome supplicants.

If a tree falls on me in the forest and there's nobody to hear me screaming, does it really hurt?
I was only joking

Well, it’s an act of God, so I’d guess yes. Hurts bad. Real bad.

Heh… He said “Beaver”… Heh….

Let's say, there'll be Hell to pay.

What if the tree is a sapling? Might not hurt too much and it may have been an act of a busy beaver.

I was mistaken earlier. Trump does not see himself as the Messiah. Rather he believes himself to be the American Moses.
