I made an incorrect assumption that everyone in the auditorium understood that, yes, we are all going to perish from this earth. So I apologize, and I’m really, really glad that I did not have to bring up the subject of the tooth fairy as well.

For those that would like to see eternal and everlasting life, I encourage you to embrace my Lord and savior Jesus Christ.

Marie Antoinette never actually said “let them eat cake,” but if she had it would’ve been smarter than this. The ghouls are showing their fangs.

          They believe in God, it’s just that God is cool and they have a close personal relationship with him

          That’s why God always forgives them for the bad stuff they do, because it’s not bad

          Because if it were bad, then God wouldn’t be cool with them and they wouldn’t be rich

          I feel like Christianity has always had a kernel of nihilism lurking in it; in the fire-and-brimstone telling that successfully took root in the US, life is essentially an eyeblink in the eternity that you’ll exist and yet it’s the only time when you can be tempted into actions that will ensure that you’ll experience an infinity of agony. Trying to wrestle with that notion would lead to some pretty antisocial conclusions, so it just gets sublimated until the culture curdles into something like this.

      And if that happens she’d just get replaced by the just as bad if not worse Kim Reynolds
