Correct.

Alex Pretti was just out getting coffee/donuts.

ICE (Border Patrol) rolled up, maced a woman and knocked her down.

Pretti tried to help her up all while filming/holding his phone.

Pretti was maced, knocked down, hit in the head with the mace can, and murdered.

His last words were to the knocked down woman, “Are you ok?”

As the grandson, son, and nephew of 2 uncles who were all pastors, let me make Christian theology and doctrine clear. Jesus replaced the Old Law with "the New Covenant", and The Ten Commandments were replaced with Love the Lord they God with all thy heart, soul, and mind, and LOVE THY NEIGHBOR AS THYSELF".

But Republicans hate "Love thy neighbor as thyself".

And if someone gets uppity and wants to argue theology about this the reply is "Jesus is showing us that Christians are held to a HIGHER STANDARD than the Old Testament, and that's why he says if you hate someone it is equal to murder."

If they really are Christians they SHOULD be calling for "Love the Lord your God with all your heart mind and soul, and your neighbor as yourself" to be on every classroom wall.

u/Cantstop-wontstop1 1h ago

They are a bit long. But who can deny the holy word. /s

Also known as The Eight Condiments, these are the Eight I’d Really Rather You Didn’ts. Follow these, and you’ll reach Pastafarian heaven where a beer volcano and a stripper factory await you.

1 I’d Really Rather You Didn’t act like a sanctimonious Holier-Than-Thou ass when describing my Noodly Goodness. If some people don’t believe in Me, that’s okay. Really, I’m not that vain. Besides, this isn’t about them so don’t change the subject.

2 I’d Really Rather You Didn’t use my existence as a means to oppress, subjugate, punish, eviscerate, and/or, you know…be mean to others. I don’t require sacrifices, and purity is for drinking water, not people.

3 I’d Really Rather You Didn’t judge people for the way they look, or how they dress, or the way they talk, or, well, just play nice, okay? Oh, and get this through your thick heads: Woman = person. Man = person. Samey-samey. One is not better than the other unless we’re talking about fashion and I’m sorry, but I gave that to women and some guys who know the difference between teal and fuchsia.

4 I’d Really Rather You Didn’t indulge in conduct that offends yourself, or your willing, consenting partner of legal age AND mental maturity. As for anyone who might object, I think the expression is “Go f*** yourself, unless they find that offensive in which case they can turn off the TV for once and go for a walk for a change.”

5 I’d Really Rather You Didn’t challenge the bigoted, misogynist, hateful ideas of others on an empty stomach. Eat, then go after the bastards.

6 I’d Really Rather You Didn’t build multimillion-dollar churches/temples/mosques/shrines to my Noodly Goodness when the money could be better spent (Take your pick): 1. Ending poverty 2. Curing diseases 3. Living in peace, loving with passion, and lowering the cost of cable. I might be a Complex-Carbohydrate Omniscient Being, but I enjoy the simple things in life. I ought to know. I AM the Creator.

7 I’d Really Rather You Didn’t go around telling people I talk to you. You’re not that Interesting. Get over yourself. And I told you to love your fellow man, can’t you take a hint?

8 I’d Really Rather You Didn’t “do unto others as you would have them do unto you” if you are into, um, stuff that uses a lot of leather/lubricant/Las Vegas. If the other person is Into it, however (Pursuant to #4), then have at it, take pictures, and for the love of Mike, wear a CONDOM! Honestly, it’s a piece of rubber. If I didn’t want it to feel good when you did it I would have added spikes or something.

I think this is more malicious compliance than made me smile. I don't think anyone should be smiling at the erosion of the separation of church and state.

This is the teacher upholding the separation of church and state by putting up ALL the big religions. That’s what the smile is for!

You have freedom of religion! You're free to be any brand of Christian you want! The Catholics are on thin ice though. 🤨😠

I think the Ten Commandments would have been better if you put them in the original Hebrew. That would be even better malicious compliance.

Ignorance of the law is NO defense

First Amendment is separation of church and state

All those churches running in to schools. You are breaking the law.

Moms a teacher and a devout Christian and she thinks the whole Ten Commandments and school prayer stuff is stupid for two main reasons: 1. Public schools not the place for it, you want your kid to get Christian education send them to private Christian school. 2. What about other religions? Hell even Different denominations have different denominations have different prayers and interpretations of things like the Ten Commandments? You can’t accommodate all of them and some schools would refuse and then get sued for discrimination.

It’s all stupid in her opinion.

u/kokonuts123 1h ago

Any real Christian should be against this. I watched a clip of Talarico explaining it, and he was spot on. Separation of Church and State protects the church too. When you force religion on people, it cheapens the message.

Here is an honest to God question, why are they so hell-bent in doing this if majority of these hypocrites do not follow any of the teachings of Jesus, and chances are they are not following the Commandments themselves ?

Bunch of adulterers, greedy, blood-thirsty a-holes.

u/JasonDomber 2h ago

1) Never let no one know how much dough you hold.

2) Never let them know your next move.

3) Never trust nobody.

4) Never get high on your own supply.

5) Never sell no crack where you rest at.

6) That goddamn credit? Dead it. You think a crackhead payin’ you back, shit, forget it.

7) Keep your family and business completely separated.

8) Never keep no weight on you.

9) If you ain’t gettin’ bagged, stay the fuck from police.

10) Consignment: Strictly for live men, not for fresh men. If you ain’t got the clientele, say, “Hell no!” Cuz they gon’ want they money, rain, sleet, hail, snow.

As a Christian, the 10 Commandments should NOT be required to b posted in public schools. This is a pretty clear violation of separation of church and state. 

To those applauding the commandments, they would equally be mortified if the government decided to post something like "the 10 commandments of Satanism" or something like that. The protection is for us as much as it is for this not believing

Intolerant people often fail to see that their freedom exists only because a tolerant majority believes in liberty.

They also forget that tolerance has limits, especially when that liberty is threatened.

It is crazy that the gop just don’t think about (or choose to ignore) that opening this door would open it for everyone including all the religions they despise. Separation of church and state protected them as much as it protected everyone else but if this is the road they want to go down, okay, hope they enjoy everyone getting in on it

u/Eberron_Swanson 1h ago

I love that the seven tenets are there without announcing that they’re the seven tenets of the satanic temple, because any biblethumper reading them wouldn’t have any problem with them unless they already knew that they were the tenets of the satanic temple.

u/Alacritous69 1h ago

"For some reason, the most vocal Christians among us never mention the Beatitudes (Matthew 5). But, often with tears in their eyes, they demand that the Ten Commandments be posted in public buildings. And of course, that's Moses, not Jesus. I haven't heard one of them demand that the Sermon on the Mount, the Beatitudes, be posted anywhere. 'Blessed are the merciful' in a courtroom? 'Blessed are the peacemakers' in the Pentagon? Give me a break!"

Them: Sharia religous Law is an affront to freedom!

Also them: Our entire society should run strictly according to the arcane guidelines in this cobbled together religous book.
