    I have always considered Zionist Christians an oxymoron. Don’t forget it were the original Usurers who plotted against Jesus

      Zionist Christians are not an oxymoron; they make perfect sense. The key is to understand that it isn’t about altruism toward the Jews, whom they don’t give a flying fuck about. It’s about shipping all the Jews to Israel (and away from everywhere else, BTW) because Revelations says the Jews returning to Israel is a precondition for triggering Armageddon and the Christians think they’re gonna get Raptured. Christian Zionism is 100% selfish and anti-Semitic.

        This is completely retarded, therefore, probably, what the most fundamentalist Christians actually think. Although I’m pretty sure most Christians around the world don’t actually give a fuck about Zionism

      Isn’t it a major theme of the New Testament that we all would have killed or deserted Jesus? Isn’t that the point of the story of Peter (Jesus’ bestie) denying him three times?

        You are 100% right. There’s plenty of food for thoughts and no truth in those words, we should all read them, reflect, bexome better people and move on the same way we do when we watch star trek episodes.

        If everyone stopped taking 2000 yeaes old fairy tales so literally, we would all be much happier as a society.
