You realize that all of us will be going to Church/Synagogue/Mosque or Temple weekly for 5 years if

[grantcart]

It turns out that the "smoking gun" that details violations of NY State laws for laundering, etc, that puts Trump, his family and most of the administration into jail without the possibility of pardon was found in an email from Kushner's new private account.

God (Allah, JHWH, etc) may work in mysterious ways but if this is what sends them all to jail it shows that He/She has a wicked sense of humor and I for one will do what I have to show my appreciation.

Call it divine symmetry.

[Nevernose]

1. No way. I'd still be an atheist

Now, if those emails not only contained enough information to get Trump indicted but also somehow managed to get the entire Bush administration sent to The Hague for war crimes tribunals? In that case, share the pew.

Otherwise it's just more Trump Family projection and hypocrisy. Also, emails don't count if you're a Republican, silly!

[Warpy]

6. Remember Sylvia Allen? She's a legislator in AZ who proposed legislation

to criminalize the refusal to attend worship services weekly. It failed, of course, too many golfers in the AZ lege for that nonsense, but the foul mouthed knitters heard about it and founded the Church of Fuck You, Sylvia.

I won't get up before noon for it, but services are ongoing and feature lots of drinking and cussing and there isn't a Republican in the house.

[KY_EnviroGuy]

22. And, no Trump vodka or wine.

Buffet better be damn special.

[Brainstormy]

12. Ditto

bullshit is bullshit is bullshit is . . .

[sarcasmo]

15. Right on.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

2. You can attend whatever services you'd like...I won't be doing any such thing.

I haven't been in church since my wedding, 52 years ago!

However, if what you say might come to pass, I will certainly be grateful!

[Xipe Totec]

10. My dad showed up on his wedding day and had to be baptized,

do first communion, and confirmation all on the same day.

Seems we was a bit behind on his vows.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

14. Omigod, I'll say he was behind! That was a memorable day.

[Duppers]

17. Same here, Peggy.

Although mine was 50yrs ago Sept. 2.

My dad's funeral was in a church but besides that, nada.

And I too will be most grateful.

[csziggy]

24. Family members disowned me because I didn't get married in a church

In fact, there wasn't any ceremony. We woke up our friend, the pizza cook and notary public, passed him the jeans he'd left in his living room the night before, had his use his notary stamp, his girlfriend signed as a witness, another friend was the other witness, and that was it.

It's lasted for forty years and just over two months - I think it took.

But my uncle, the evangelical Baptist preacher, took exception to the no church part. He already had a hard time with my Mom converting to Presbyterian when she married Dad, and my three sisters marrying in the Presbyterian Church. So me not even having a religous ceremony put him over the edge. He never spoke to me or contacted me again.

That is OK - he is the reason I turned away from religion. He was the most racist, prejudiced asshole I met as a child and teenager. His irrational hatred of blacks and vile racist "jokes" made me re-examine all my preconceptions about religion. What he practiced made me dislike religion ever since.

[JI7]

3. I would still be an atheist but would have no problem going if that happened

[Brainstormy]

13. I'll go to church and to a a football game on the same day

check the weather report for hell freezing over.

[Stuart G]

4. If all that comes to pass, as you say................then.....

I will go to whatever the Democratic Underground ..."group on religion"....say to go..it doesn't matter to me...I am not too far from a very large body of water....Lake Michigan....well...I can go watch the sunrise over the lake...and pray or sing, or chant...or just look at the sunrise...and ...say..."Good Day Sun"....

It doesn't matter.....if the crooks end up in the slammer...I will go where they tell me to go.....
I am probably going anyway.....but, put them in jail, and as they say..........."I will be there"

........................

[Lifelong Protester]

5. I'll be there.

I will be giving a LOT of thanks.

[Binkie The Clown]

7. Rather than credit an imaginary sky-daddy, I'll just blame a very real dotard in D.C. nt

[ProudLib72]

8. Nah, I blame all the people who voted for him

And many, many of those are good old xtians who go to church whenever possible and buy up Bakker's apocalypse meal buckets.

[Binkie The Clown]

9. Or we could cut to the chase and blame "human nature", and just admit we are a flawed species. nt

[George II]

11. It's always a lesser crime that gets them. Al Capone didn't go to prison for murder, racketeering..

...he went to jail for income tax evasion.

[Mr.Bill]

16. I go to church every Sunday.

Unless there's a game on.

[grantcart]

25. Exactly, seems like some self proclaimed athiests are humor impaired.

The point wasn't about the deity it was the strange inclusion of emails after all of the shit we had to go through about Hillary using emails for PERSONAL use.

[HAB911]

29. LOL, we have humor

but are a little sensitive for being told we are going to burn in hell so often by supremacists

[Scruffy1]

18. I hope you are right.

As far as religion goes, I consider it as a way of maintaining hegemony, but I've got a deal with preople who feel different. I respect their right to believe in the sky god as long as they respect my right to see it as as childish nonsense. Seriously, I am good friends with Rabbis, Priests, Preachers, Catholics, Muslims and some others.

[LS_Editor]

19. I think not.

No religion for me.

[Honeycombe8]

20. None of the family will spend any time in jail, and no criminal charges will be filed.

That's how it works for powerful, rich people. If it gets that serious, he'll cut a deal, like agree to leave the job w/o a fuss.

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

21. With all due respect, no.

If there were a just God or deity of any sort, we wouldn't have Trump as President. As for having a sense of humor, well I don't find very much of anything Trump says or does to be amusing.

[jmowreader]

23. I have a better idea

Let's all celebrate by doing things Trump hates...like donating to Planned Parenthood, going to a recreational-weed state and getting high, wiping our asses on Confederate-flag toilet paper, paying our taxes. not using any coal, eating a steak that isn't cooked to a cinder and slathered in ketchup...

[Motley13]

26. I wonder if he came up with all this stupid NFL stuff because of the

Kushner e-mails coming out?

Lock them all up

[HAB911]

30. Yep, look at this new shiny thing over here!

[Docreed2003]

27. I'll be boiling pasta as soon as I wake up that day

And won't stop until my pastafarian friends are full!

[stopbush]

28. I've heard some lame reasons to believe in gods, but this one takes the cake.

Sheesh!

[Orrex]

31. Mysterious God should have stepped up to the plate years ago

I'd love to see Him smite Trump with a plague of suppurating boils or whatever, but we're well past the point of "too little, too late."

[raven mad]

32. I'd even think about hitting a local church.

IF it happens............. and the oldest church here, and fun folks.
