Considering all of Jesus's family and friends lived in the Middle East, seems like US troops are fighting all his descendants. Besides which, all the countries there also believe in Jesus, God and the Bible in one way or another so that statement is utterly ridiculous.

The pope should excommunicate the U.S.
pumper
Both are full of shit.
Hatsodoom
republicunts: The pope does not speak for god.
VinnyVeritas
Fighting for Jesus. Nothing more clearly shows Hegseth is wholly unqualified to be either a military leader or to claim Christianity

Apparently, trump disagrees to. He praising Allah.

What a weak and impure god that needs avowed small and sinful humans to fight for it.
You’d think God would be able to take care of his own battles.
ArenJ6
Well, what does he know.
sockpanhandler
New York Times doing its part in schizo-splaining this administrations complete nonsense. Honestly fuck off New York Times. You wanted this shit show.

They're fighting for Evangelical Jesus, not Catholic Jesus.

trying to make about middle eastern religions , when it's actually about the oil ( again ) and hiding The Epstein files, and most likely hiding that they are russian pawns ....

The Catholic Church, famously against the idea of people fighting for "jesus" /s

Let jesus come right on down with his own opinion, then.

Honestly, I feel like this is going to make East Coast Krazy Catholics try and succeed. Luther Part 6: electric boogaloo

I tell ya, these Christians are really making me hate Christians

I would bet my entire existence that Hegseth has never finished a single chapter in the bible and was only told summary points on certain things. I doubt he has even read a single sentence in the book. Hes a fucking phony who doesnt believe in any of this shit. Its all a front so he can gain support.
Uselesstoy
Protestants don't give a shit about the Pope.
Jimthebutler
Separation of church and state. Your troops are not "fighting for Jesus".
ErniesWidow
Is that why Hegseth disinvited the Catholics and had only a Protestant Good Friday service at the Pentagon?

When the Pope hears something Hegseth has said

You ever see the docuseries on Netflix called The Family? It shows that there is a rich group of people who are doing what they can to take over the government. They wrote a new bible that better aligns with the manosphere thinking. Jesus is essentially a Republican bro who forgives rapists. I believe that this is the religion the Heritage foundation follows. Watch it, it's terrifying and old at this point.

One thing I learned as an abuse survivor is that evil people LOVE to cover themselves in labels they think make them sound like good guys. They know that by doing so they will get away with far more, because most decent people will see those labels and assume the bad guys genuinely believe themselves to be doing good, and thus are simply misguided, then spin their wheels trying to explain to them how it is wrong to do bad things instead of actually stopping them.

Love to cover themselves in labels they think make them sound like good guys.... while putting down everyone they hate. trump the Imprecator.

Hegseth is the sort of person that Jesus scorned.

He’s the guy who who’s wine Jesus would turn back into water.

Isnt his Real middle name judas?

That'd be 99.9% of religious people today.

Hegaeth’s the kind of person god would send to hell.

Jesus would flip Hegseth's table 30 seconds in.

I will not be surprised if/when there is a new 'Church of America' with Trump as head - similar to Church of England
Feralkyn
That's the Evangelicals all the way man. It's been a thing for awhile. They're pro-Trump and vocally evil, and the Catholic Church has been decrying the shit they say and do for YEARS now

Hegshit believes in the "individual interpretation of God's will".

TwoForSpookin
Yeah but Hegseth also says the female orgasm is urban legend
crateo
The Catholic canon, and I shit you not, disagrees on that again. Under Humanae Vitae, female orgasm is an intrinsic part of the Unitive side of sex in marriage.
So, skill issue.
erinaceus
wait no really?
szepasszony
It's a pretty common talking point for the red pilled far right now. Jordan Petterson and Ben Shapiro had a discussion about whether or not women just pretend to enjoy sex.
unannouncedguest
It's funny how incompetent you must be as an "alpha" male to be his age and never to have given someone an orgasm or even to have witnessed one.

Comes down to not giving a shit about your partner. Fuck you got mine in the most literal sense

But still expecting women to flock to you en masse because you are so awesome... And then crying on social media when they don't
