Yeah, sure.

The ignoramus who didn’t know the difference between Calvary and Cavalry is now being beatified. He/She intended to “bring Christ to the Capitol” Building on Jan 6, according to Schoen. This, spoken by the religious Jew who covered his head while drinking water the other day. Does nobody’s religious convictions compel the truth anymore?! Trump loving Evangelicals, Observant Jews who misuse the facts...what the heck?!?!?!

I often expect more from people of faith than I ought. I left the Evangelical Church and for good reason.

There is no bottom for a lot of people. So disheartening.

He started smiling during it and kept smiling as he spoke. If you compare this to his earlier statement at the beginning of the impeachment, you can see the change in his face. Guy’s a liar.

Every religion in the world has fundamental hypocritical problems whether of facts or internal inconsistencies. Religions were invented by humans so these problems aren't really surprising.

However, there are many positive elements of most religions. A desire for honesty, fairness and mutual respect are features of most faiths. How is it, then, that so many who profess their faith so vigorously turn out to be huge offenders of the morals they espouse?

The hypocrisy (and denial of facts) makes me laugh sadly.

By the way, there must be a lawyer joke about an honest attorney.
