Religion is such a loving grift.

Makes me want to start a business selling prayer rocks in a scripture and crucifix laden cardboard box, I'll even get internet ordained so I can bless the rocks for a substantial fee.

Get your prayer rocks* now! Only $29.95/kg**!

Free (parcel post) shipping!

* quarried sandstone

** lol americans knowing what a kg is.

Religious organizations (501c3s) in my state can make tax free profit off rental property and often do. Tenants can make donations to said religious organizations which can be used as a tax write off.

The stipulation is that 501c3 profits cannot be used for personal use. However, neither the use of a private jet to foreign counties for missionairy work nor employment of your family as "security" qualify as personal use.

Religion in America, like gambling, is a regressive tax on the poor.

Betting Pence peaces out right before it goes final so Grassley needs to say it. Pretty clear the Republicans are a scrambled mess with no plan right now:

religion is philosophical suicide and basically letting others decide how your life should be

it tries so loving hard to make you believe that they put up statues and giant works of art to prove that theyre "right" when there is no right answer and they dont know a thing either

The last part explains confederate statues and monuments pretty accurately, too.

My personal philosophy involving bigfoot and aliens isn't exactly designed to gain traction. Bigfoot told me to go to the woods and pray alone in a private patch of trees, only then will sasquatch aliens reward me with enlightenment. Praying on the roads next to national forests is for heathens who want to be seen, not saved.


Goddamnit I really need to get started on that bigfoot bible.

Sucker should have just ignored the votes from states he didn't like. Could have gotten 100% of all the counted electoral votes if he was a big brain stable genius, then congress wouldn't have been able to give it to Bush at all.

Not everyone in Congress even feels compelled to attend. And even the vice president has been away: In 1969, Vice President Hubert Humphrey decided to attend the funeral of the first United Nations secretary-general instead. That meant the Senate president pro tempore, at the time Georgia Democrat Richard Russell, had the job of announcing that Humphrey, who had been his party's nominee for president, had lost the election to Republican Richard Nixon.

It's the principle of the matter :colbert:

If you're interested in minor historical trivia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toledo_War tl;dr is that both Michigan and Ohio thought Toledo was an up-and coming city back in the late 1830s, the line between the territories was disputed, and they ended up having a very minor skirmish over it before Congress settled the matter as both territories became states

Mapping was pretty terrible then. If the Maumee river went anywhere closer to the Ohio or Mississippi Toledo would’ve been an extreme important city.
