I don’t need your civil war. It’s feeds the rich and buries the poor
ReplyAlready unconstitutional, when they assume that ONLY those who are Christians follow the Sabbath Day and keeping it holy. Screw all those Sunday Pro Football and Basketball right!? How unholy is that!? The SCOTUS will not allow religion to be used as a way to suppress other races and religions because they are NOT Christians or if they are atheists.
ReplyI always dream that god would come down and smack these foos upside the head.
ReplySen. Smith-Hyde does understand that even MS can’t just declare biblical law, right?
ReplySabbath in all the Semitic languages means Saturday…
ReplyThe bullshit they spout to justify their fascism.
ReplyThis just in: GOP senator thinks voting is unholy.
ReplyProblem with that is that this information was given to Moses. Moses with the Egyptian name happened to be giving this information to the Hebrew people and the others who escaped Egypt so the Sabbath day was actually on a Saturday and not a Sunday.
ReplyWonder what’s going to happen to people who change the scripture?
Happy upcoming Passover.
Correct me if I am wrong, but isn’t the Sabbath the seventh day of the week? When did Sunday replace Saturday as the seventh day?
ReplyHo ly Shit – 😅😂🤣🤯😇
ReplyPolling Day should be Saturday.
ReplyFail. The Sabbath is Saturday.
ReplyPlenty of lynchings occurred on Sunday…picnics and family portraits…read, Smithsonian has all the dates and photos.
ReplyI’m not religious don’t believe in it but I know for a fact that the Sabbath is on a Saturday
ReplyThe hilarious thing is that “Sabbath” in Exodus originally meant SATURDAY, which remains the day of rest among Jews today (you know, the guys who wrote the Old Testament?). It is also evidenced by the word for “Saturday” in numerous other languages like Spanish Sabado and Greek Savvato.
ReplyI thought the Sabbath is on ‘Saturday’?
ReplyWhat happened to separation of church and state?
ReplySunday is THE day Germany holds every single vote because it is our day of rest. Most people do not work on sundays and therefore have time to vote. And those that fo work can vote by mail.
ReplyThinking that God would not want you to vote is such an odd concept.
I wonder if they even feel guilt for literally using their religion to lie. Shamelessly. For material gain. And these are the people who claim to be “God-fearing”. There has to be a special place in their hell for them.
ReplyAnd bible also says stone the homosexuals. What… the republicans want to stone the gays!!!!
ReplyOkay first of all I am from Mississippi and I don’t ever want you speaking for me.
2and get your facts straight, the true sabbath is Saturday. We Christians were forced to worship the sabbath on Sunday because it conflicted with Jewish sabbath and they couldn’t worship together.
The sabbath is the day god rested. The 7th day. The end of the days it took for god to create life.
How the hell are you this old and not know SUNDAY IS THE BEGINNING OF THE WEEK!
Literally named sunday because god created the sun on that day wtf?
ReplyTime to fire up the old West Wing speech.
ReplyNo voting bc it’s the Sabbath & needs to be kept holy, really . OK, then no shops open, no bars, no restaurants, no gyms, no golf clubs, infact nothing other than churches should be open..
ReplyI’m a catholic and she is dead wrong Sunday is not the true sabbath it is Saturday according to the bible and he rested on the seventh day that is Saturday the end of the week. The Roman catholic church changed it to sunday defying the bible to flex there power. I am a strict bible Christian you should study how roman Catholicism began a hole lot of paganism and persecution and death came out of it many true Christians died only for possession of a bible or not swearing allegiance to the ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH the PEDOPHILES coming out now isn’t new. People need to study biblical history not white wash it. GOD BLESS
ReplyNot only has she got the wrong day of the week, but she’s forgetting she’s claiming to be a Christian. Jesus said, when asked if it was ok to do stuff on the Sabbath, that “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath” i.e. it’s something for folks to use, not something that should be turned into a golden idol.
ReplyI wonder if the senator from MS supports the death penalty for people who work on the sabbath:
ReplyExodus 31:15
“Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day is to be put to death.”
So…every business in Mississippi is closed on Sunday?
ReplyFirst day of the week 🤔 isn’t the Sabbath 😒
ReplyRepublicans are worse than badly behaved children. They hate growing p and will not take responsibility for their behavior. SO SAD to see people so disturbed by being nice. And the funny thing is when you tell them the truth they cringe and hide under false claims and distractions. Pathetic .
ReplyFascist-racists, fascrascist, new worm, I mean word …however, they keep pumping the same old ****
ReplyMissisippi senator: ‘…we would never do that [voting] on a sunday. in God’s word Exodus 28…’ oh please, how do you explain all those Catholic countries (including Italy, Spain, Argentina etc) setting voting day on a sunday for decades and decades? yet alone all those cardinals and bishops being totally okay with voting on sunday??? don’t they know their bible, all traitors to god, or what?
Reply1. Sabbath is on a Saturday.
Reply2. Separation of Church & State.
3. Everyone in the USA ignores the sabbath rule in every way imaginable.
hmm?? Sabbath is on Saturday…. duh!
ReplyThe enlightenment, started arguably in 1637 with ‘Cogito, ergo sum’. It’s 2021, the US may eventually catch up.
ReplySo basically they are ignoring the FIRST AMENDMENT. If they want people to respect the SECOND AMENDMENT, then start by RESPECTING THE FIRST AMENDMENT. The first says that people will have RELIGIOUS FREEDOM and her “RELIGIOUS EXCUSE” is based on her own religion thus she is “USING HER RELIGION” to force her religion on OTHER AMERICANS which is in direct violation of the Constitution of the Unites States of American and as such she should IMMEDIATELY be removed from office for violating her oath to uphold such Constitution!
ReplyGOP seems like they’re getting a little nervous about the Black and Brown people vote .
ReplyJesus Christ is coming back soon and will give everyone the reward they deserve. Repent to God and Christ and confess and repent of your sins! Accept Christ as your Lord and Savior! Forgive and love one another. Live holy! Read the Bible and learn to live as pleases God and Christ! Don’t take the c-vax. Don’t get tested! No Make-Up! Do not worship “saints” statues! No worldy music! Fast! No TV! Don’t love the world or anything in the world! No sinful desires! Ask for God’s opinion! No pagan or church festivals! No ornaments or jewellery! No videogames! Don’t listen to worldly teachings. Stay away from the Roman Catholic Church! Pray! Check out the videos of peniel ngonde!
ReplyHe’s a good old boy…
ReplyThis racist always playing the God card
ReplyYea, don’t even bother, everyone knows what you are doing. Call yourself a Christian, what a joke.
ReplySunday is the First day, the Day of Working.
ReplySaturday is the Last day, the Day of Resting.
Preachers are not to preach, farmers are not to farm, Judges are not to Judge.
The only ones allowed to work on the day of Rest are the Soldiers, those of War.
So she’s more religious than all of those good people who take advantage of souls to polls? What a slap in the face! The arrogance of the holier than thou so-called “Christians” is not to be believed.
ReplyWhy are we pandering to all this Bull 💩. EVERYONE sees the racist, disenfranchisement that’s going on here.
Why is the GQP allowed to hijack any gun control legislation when 90% of Americans want restrictions on purchasing guns.
And why are we allowing the systematic dismantling of a post office run by a man who has a vested financial and political interest in seeing its demise?
WTF!
Replyto bad the people who run the state aren’t christian as the lie falls out of her mouth
ReplySHOMER SHABBOS!
ReplyExodus 20:18 “When the people saw the thunder and lightning and heard the trumpet and saw the mountain in smoke, they trembled with fear. They stayed at a distance”
ReplyHey Mississippi, remember the separation of church and state. Yeah that little thing that is why the U.S. is the reason we exist, well one of the reasons.
ReplyThe two things racists and hillbillies use to defend any of their actions. The 2nd amendment and a bible.
ReplyRemember to keep
ReplyIn mind
She’s a flaming racist
Senators should not be allowed to quote the Bible? What’s the First Amendment again? Oh… yeahhhhh.
ReplyA punching on Saturday and go to church on Sunday; yeah MS got their priorities straight.
ReplySo there’s no football in Mississippi on Sundays? Or is this just some more BS by the GOP?
ReplyMighty white of you to force your religious beliefs on me…and wasnt the Sabbath Saturday?
ReplyBAHAHAHAAH!!
ReplyI volunteer to remove that republican woman from her life.
ReplyReap what you sow
ReplyIn her religious fanaticism to suppress the vote, Cindy Hyde-Smith quotes from an ancient religious text. While ignoring the more relevant text: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, of prohibiting the free exercise thereof… or the right to peaceable assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. [Amendment I of the U.S. Constitution] Looks like voting on the “Sabbath” is a protected right Cindy, unless you can find another ancient religious text.
ReplyI hate the fact she thinks she speaks for all of us! I live and was raised in South Mississippi. I’m sorry this is who represents us in the Senate. It’s embarrassing!
ReplyKeeping the sabbath day holy…..hmmm……and do you know that if you didn’t keep the sabbath day holy it was punishable by death…….this comes from the old testament. And what did Jesus have to say about it……”At that time Jesus went through the grain fields on the Sabbath. His disciples were hungry and began to pick some heads of grain and eat them. When the Pharisees saw this, they said to him, “Look! Your disciples are doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath.”
He answered, “Haven’t you read what David did when he and his companions were hungry? He entered the house of God, and he and his companions ate the consecrated bread—which was not lawful for them to do, but only for the priests. Or haven’t you read in the Law that on the Sabbath the priests in the temple desecrate the day and yet are innocent? I tell you that one greater than the temple is here. If you had known what these words mean, ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice,’ you would not have condemned the innocent. For the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath.” Matthew 12:1-14 NIV…… If you’re gonna talk the talk you better be able to walk the walk…….
ReplySenator Hyde Smith, you need to go back to school to learn that there is separation of church and state in the Constitution.
ReplyIt’s funny that she thinks she is right when no one could refute her lies in front of her lying face.
ReplyWas that rule made by the same God that ordered all his soldiers to attack a city and cut all the babies out of pregnant women’s wombs – No Thanks!
ReplySen Hyde says she can’t have voting on a Sunday, and yet the NFL plays football on Sunday, and I’m pretty sure you can shop and play bingo in Mississippi on Sundays as well. GTFOH Sen Hyde-Smith (open handed slap motion)
Reply“The filibuster has been around since I entered the Senate 120 years ago. ” – Joe Biden, Democrat
ReplyYet you can praise God in a liquor store on Sunday
ReplyThis sadly is the lunacy and stupidity I have come to expect from republicans.
ReplyThe sabbath is from sundown friday to sundown saturday. She just admitted she’s a satanist.
ReplyThe sabbath is on Saturday.
ReplySenator Cindy sounds like a Pharisee from Jesus’ time, in what she smugly opines is permissible to occur on Sundays in Mississippi. Doing one’s civic duty on the Sabbath is off-bounds because of a calendar, or whether it is light or dark outside? For the next few minutes, let’s play by her alleged rulebook, which she may assert supersedes the U.S. Constitution. I wonder what she thinks of the Mayflower Compact… In the gospels of Matthew, chapter twelve, and of Luke, fourteen, we learn that Jesus was about to heal a man with a withered hand. He asked them whether it was lawful to heal on the Sabbath, and they had no answer. He made the man whole, and then told them if anybody had a sheep, an ox or donkey that had fallen into a pit on the Sabbath, they would not hesitate to take hold of the animal and pull it out, and summarized by saying that people are better than animals. Score one for Jesus and sensible people everywhere.
Yes, the Sabbath was made for people, as Jesus said in Mark 2:27, but some have set themselves up as the judges of others, improperly applying the verses from Ecclesiastes chapter three:
1 To every thing there is a season,
and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
2 a time to be born, and a time to die;
a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
3 a time to kill, and a time to heal;
a time to break down, and a time to build up;
4 a time to weep, and a time to laugh;
a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
5 a time to cast away stones,
and a time to gather stones together;
a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
6 a time to get, and a time to lose;
a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
7 a time to rend, and a time to sew;
a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
8 a time to love, and a time to hate;
a time of war, and a time of peace. [Holy Bible, Authorized King James Version]
Senator Cindy and others would have us think only one of these conditions may apply at a time. They are poised to make new Southern blue laws to prevent Americans from engaging in political activities on Sundays, which unduly affects people of lower socio-economic status, who have a stronger correlation to voting as Democrats and who more often happen to be Black or brown.
Telling Americans they are prohibited from providing food or drink to those who are in line to vote, on one hand, seems an enforcement of some states’ “line warming” laws against vote influencing. On the other hand, applying a Procrustean process to neighborly behavior seems to violate what Jesus of Nazareth said in Matthew 25:34-46:
34 Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: 35 for I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: 36 naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me. 37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed or thirsty, and gave drink? 38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took in? or naked, and clothed ? 39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee? 40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done unto me. 41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: 42 for I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink: 43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not. 44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee? 45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did not to one of the least of these, ye did not to me. 46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.
I wonder how many Bible-believing, scripture-quoting politicians are aware of these verses, and how they might apply to their ever-tightening voting laws that seem like voter suppression to the vast majority of Americans? We must be vigilant and ready to defend our freedoms.
See what Snopes said about this: snopes.com/fact-check/georgia-food-water-voters-line/
ReplyHas anyone been to MS. I always defended the state as I’m from AR and would ask how bad could it be……until I spent a weekend in Jackson. Unbelievable. Even folks in gay bars were openly racist. That’s something if you’re gay and hating on black folks……you haven’t learned a GD thing. I don’t believe in hell but if there was one gay racist should be a front of the line.
ReplyI thought the state map cartoon would have a Southern accent but no.
ReplyHow about letting those citizens who don’t follow your religion vote on Sundays? That way churchgoers will see shorter lines when they go to vote….
ReplySomeone needs to read the constitution.
ReplyIn Germany, our elections are always on Sunday because that’s when people are best available because even our stores are closed Sunday’s and only few people have to work so they have time to vote. Then again, we WANT our citizens to vote and we make it easy for them. Can’t say the same for America.
ReplyAt the time God said that, the Sabbath was still Saturday. To accept Sunday as God’s day, you must accept the authority of the Roman Emperor Constantine (the first one to go Christian), who decided to change the day to Sunday. I don’t know whether God was OK with that or not. That kind of matters, since the Bible also says that (according to God) anyone who violates the Sabbath should be put to death.
ReplyToo bad congress people do not know the Constitution. You would think it a prerequisite. She should try reading the first amendment sometime.
ReplyGreeting from Germany.
ReplySunday is a day of rest here (businesses are closed). And elections MUST be held on sundays by law. …………….
I might consider her point, “But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.” I am sure she agrees, as it says so in some old book.
ReplyThis is about early voting, right? Sooooo, separation of church and state, aside (though it shouldn’t be)…if it is YOUR PERSONAL belief to honor YOUR religious day in a particular way, then go right on ahead and do that. It doesn’t affect anyone else, ya self-righteous idiot.
ReplyThe TRUE SABBATH is SATURDAY…NOT SUNDAY🤔🤔. That Senator needs to RE-EDUCATE herself on the ACTUAL FACTS and RE-READ the BIBLE🤔🤔.
ReplySen. Hyde-Smith has based her beliefs on very bad Biblical hermeneutics.
ReplySabbath is Saturday isn’t it?
ReplyIn the Jewish culture the new day began at sunset, not sunrise. Also the Sabbath was the last day. Not the Sunday of the common current calendar. Lastly Jesus fulfilled the Mosaic Law with his Sacrifice. The principal of love supercedes the previous law which is no longer applicable.
ReplyWhat about Saturday then?
ReplyThis is the very definition of the term “Bible Bashing”.
ReplySimultaneoulsly using the Bible as an excuse, and also making a mockery of it.
She is saying every Americans is a Christian of her denomination and ethnic group trying to disenfranchise voter.
ReplySabbath is on Saturdays 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️ I’m not religious and I know that.
ReplyBiblical Sabbath is on Saturday, lol.
ReplyStopping people from voting in a Democracy is a “last gasp” attempt to hold onto power – stay relevant and simple survival of wholly corrupt evil racist sociopathic loons with really bad ideas – deranged / cruel rapacious policies and horrific behaviors that are unpopular with a MAJORITY of voters. It is LITERALLY WHY they are desperately trying to stop people from voting. Because a majority of voters DON’T like their policies – behaviors – morals – ethics and find their political party repulsive. And so perverting democracy itself and cheating is the only way they can win elections.
ReplyJeezuz i get tired of these ignorant, willfully or otherwise politicians using a ridiculously old book about outdated beliefs to push there inhumane agenda. Religion should never be used as a cudgel to manipulate people into your way of thinking or doing things. these are not true Christians. these are wolves in sheep’s clothing. There is no worse evil than that
ReplyAssuming your religion is the only one, not discriminatory at all, eh Senator? 🤨
ReplyI know how important Biblical accuracy is to this woman, so she’ll be happy to know that the Sabbath is from Friday evening to Saturday evening. Jesus Himself would have recognized it as such. So this kindly Senator can honor God on the Sabbath and also allow for voting on Sundays with no contradictions—win win. 😉 Since according to her this proposed Sunday voting restriction has absolutely nothing to do with the “Souls to the Polls” initiative and an attempt to suppress the African-American vote by complicating that, she should have no objection to reopening voting on Sunday.
ReplyThere is a common misconception that people with southern accents are stupid. Is false, but people like Cindy Hyde-Smith aren’t doing anything to help.
Replythe mississippi gambling boats are open on sunday.

ReplyI still haven’t been able to find the words, “Separation of Church and State ” in the Constitution.
ReplyExcept in Exodus 20 talks about the Saturday, the jews Shabat NOT the sunday! 🤦🏻♂️
ReplyHere’s an idea anyone running for public office should be required to read the constitution. Then pass a test on it.
ReplyBut the invisible omniscient zombie overlord conveniently happens to agree with me. Really, he does. Just trust me, suckers.
ReplyHold up, did she just say they made a law because of biblical scripture? That sounds an awful lot like how Sharia Law works.
ReplyGod’s Word ? Make sure black folks can’t vote, saith the lord of white folks.
ReplyGod said “how dare you to have a sh#t on a Sunday..” exodus 14:2
ReplySo…why do all the Baptist Church congregations pile into the Mexican restaurant on SUNDAY after church let’s out?
ReplyUm if you’re following sabbath then that would be Saturday
ReplyExodus 21: slavery is ok
ReplySaddest part of this is the people who hear what she said and think to themselves, “yep!” Or more likely, “Amen!” How did we let our people become so dumb in this country?
Reply““Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the LORD your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.”

“If more people voted, you’d never have a Republican elected in this country again.” – Donald Trump
Sounds like a Republican performance issue than a voting issue. If the ‘pubs can win in a fair election, then maybe they shouldn’t be elected. The PEOPLE chose who they feel can do the job best, not the CEO’s politicians or the church.
I suggest that if the ‘pubs want to win again, then shape up and start putting the people, ALL of the people first before the party.
ReplyFirst that was a misquote of the wrong bible verse. Second, the only thing etched in stone with God’s finger was to remember Sabbath, the seventh day of the week which is also known as Saturday
ReplyThe best part about this is if this is the actual excuse they’re giving this can be sued and addressed in lawsuits in court on a federal level
ReplyThe Sabbath is actually Saturday… Sunday is the first day of the week
ReplyThe Sabbath only applies to Jews. The New Testament doesn’t oblige gentiles to live according to Jewish law. Apostle Paul condemned the apostle Peter for trying to make gentiles do so.
ReplyActually the Bible don’t say the exact day of rest, but you should rest every 7th day and respect said resting day. So the resting day could be on Wednesday, and god would not care
ReplyThat was written in Exodus and means Saturday. She obviously doesn’t know the Bible as well as she professes. Many people who work — unlike Republican Congress persons — cannot just get time off to vote, especially in states like hers who want only certain people to be able to vote.
ReplyThese are the caliber of elected officials you get when first cousins marry and have children.
ReplySorry. “Condemned” is the wrong word. Opposed the apostle Peter.
ReplyNo one should report to work on Sunday ever again in Mississippi.👍

ReplyThen all stores should be closed on Sunday too. I’m sure that would go over well.
ReplyRidiculous
ReplyOMG. It’s funny because we wish it weren’t true 😟
ReplyThe Sabbath is not Sunday but Saturday. This is proof that the Papacy is in control that Sunday law is coming soon… The Three Angels message which the Seventh Day Adventist Movement been preaching for years are coming to fulfillment.
SUNDAY IS THE MARK OF THE BEAST (ROME) AND SUNDAY OBSERVING WILL BE ENFORCED BY LAW.
Replyrepublican scumbags
ReplyFairytale jesus and grits for breakfast.
ReplyIncredible..arguing about a false Sabbath and attempting to establish religion. Keep Gods Holy 7th say Sabbath not the Papal “Sunday”. And don’t make law pertaining to religion.
ReplyYou cannot change Gods Word! The biblical Sabbath has always been the 7th day of the week not the Papal “Sunday”
ReplyUmm… In the Constitution it says that Congress and the states “shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion.”
ReplySo… Thanks for providing another grounds for appeal.
Is she saying that, ‘voting is a sin’?
ReplyYou can’t vote on Sunday, but, you can go to the PORN STORE. That won’t offend God
ReplyChurch and State?
ReplyDon’t speak for all Mississippians! They’re not all biblically illiterate, like you! Too bad we can’t see to it that she, hence forth has to live by Old Testament strictures…by that measure, she and most all of us are, living, breathing abominations! Besides…she clearly has no understanding of the historical context and calendar designations.
ReplyHey, what about ‘loving your neighbor as oneself’?
ReplyWalmart open Sunday. Good.
ReplyAmazon. Sunday. Good too.
Football. Sunday. Real good.
MacDonald. Every Sunday.
Voting. Sunday. Nope.
It’s is LITERALLY a violation of the U.S. Constitution for the government to designate any day as ‘holy’. Of course, the problem here is that federal elections aren’t controlled by the federal government, and individual states can get away with all manner of rat-fucking since Roberts gutted the Voting Rights Act.
ReplyWhen did we become a extreme religious nation where the book of only one of the practiced religions dictate governmental policy? This is what the Taliban has been fighting for.
ReplyToning out the news is great. I always enjoy the jokes.
Reply*sigh* and yet the Christians are the ones whining about “bEiNg oPpReSsEd!!!”
ReplySabbath is actually on Saturday. However, as a government official you are supposed to keep a separation between church and state matters so your Sabbath day excuse is no excuse. Now they’re using the bible to defend their bigotry and racism just like they did during the civil war.
ReplySounds like an establishment of a religion problem to me. If you don’t want to vote on Sunday because you think it conflicts with your religion, don’t vote on Sunday…
ReplyInsanity. I guess our representatives forgot the whole separation of church and state. Hmmm. And is her excuse for racism.
ReplyIt’s actually Saturday, but okay, I’ll play. Can’t use guns on Sunday either, how’s that? Same bible says you shouldn’t do any work, not even cooking or cleaning or fighting…
ReplyI’m not a bible scholar so I have to ask… under what circumstances does the bible say I am required to sell my daughter into slavery?
ReplyBut did she say anything against killing a cop during an insurrection on January 20th? I think that’s also in the Bible.
ReplyPlus, Church is essentially delusion, make belief, and my existentence in the state is pretty 24/7
ReplyCindy Smith, no amount of pendants will ever make up for all the Covid deaths you & your fellow Republicans are responsible for.
ReplyShe’s got the wrong day. The Sabbath has never been Sunday, the first day of the week. The Sabbath is on Saturday.
ReplyIf these racist, evangelical, ‘so-called’ Christians actually read the Bible , especially the gospels, they’d realize that none of the shite they spew out of their mouths is related to Jesus. If Jesus showed up today, they’d lock him in a cage for being too brown, and then they’d hang him on a cross.
ReplyNo voting on Sunday, but you can get your booze on in Mississippi on Sunday.
ReplyJesus Christ!!! Why these garbage people keep using the Old Testament? They didn’t even meet or know Jesus!!! Why on Earth are you gonna believe them since they didn’t have Jesus in their lives?? And Jesus is the Good News!!! We have new laws and teachings! There’s a reason why it’s called OLD Testament!!!
ReplyThis kind of people, that uses the Bible in their disgusting arguments and bigotries, is gonna burn in hell!!!
Clearly not a Seventh Day Adventist….
ReplySabbath is actually saturday.
ReplyHiding behind god as usual. When have religious people not been full of shit?
ReplyMisssissippi’s new state motto: “What the fuck is separation of church and state?”
ReplyShe’s like my cat trying to be stealthy… NOT SCIENTIFICALLY POSSIBLE!!!
ReplyREMEMBER the Sabbath. did you forget that the Sabbath is Saturday. Even Jesus rested on Saturday. Friday was His crucifixion, He rested on Saturday and on the first day of the week was his resurrection.
ReplyFor a country based on secular religious freedom, certainly harp on about Christian superiority. Separation of church and state seems to have been forgotten. Btw, the Bible says Sabbath is on Saturday, like the Jews do it. March 7th, 321, Roman emperor and pope of the east declared Sunday a day of rest. Ethiopian Christians have the whole weekend. That’s the problem with religion, no consistency or truth is flexible under interpretation.
