Excited to hear Mike Huckabee’s other theories on which ethnic groups enjoy sovereignty over which geographic regions

You’ve got to be able to expand that Lebensraum though

He’s not wrong from a BIBLICAL standpoint.

The Bible also says disobedient children should be murdered. The Bible says that if you rape a child, you have to give her dad $50 and marry her. The Bible is OBSESSED with foreskin collection.

It says a lot of very stupid tripe, that’s why nobody bothers following it.

I always laugh at this argument, because there’s a more amusing argument. Yeah, it’s Israel’s land and they’re G-d’s chosen people. But multiple times in the Bible G-d has taken that land from them and even had them enslaved by nearby nations! At this point in the mythos, G-d, the Messiah, has yet to reveal himself. He’s still in silence lol So, based on all that, it sounds like Israel needs to take some responsibility for what they do.

The Bible is OBSESSED with foreskin collection.

That makes sense tho…

Like Old Testament was for the one group in the area who removed those as children. No adult spy would do that for cover, and it would take substantial time to heal to pass

So it wasn’t “we love foreskins, gimmie them foreskins” as much as “give me the one thing that proved you killed an adult man who wasn’t part of us”.

It was genocide, if you weren’t part of ‘the tribe’ you were an enemy and should be killed.

So yeah, totally evil, but logical.

By the logic of the old testament of the Bible, wouldn’t the Jews have a right to the entire earth?

All because of their foreskin kink.

But God and Allah are the same entity?! Is he sure Allah is keen on this?

Christian Zionism is a deranged cult.
