    The ‘logic’ is that God has often used imperfect men to carry out his mission. Noah was a drunk, Lot slept with his daughters, and King David murdered a man so he could have the widow.

    No matter what Donnie does, he is anointed because they say so

      Wonder how many times God tried to convince someone to do a thing and they just kinda… didn’t. Never read the Bible, but I don’t imagine many stories of unredeemed goat fornicators or greedy merchants end up sticking around.

      I feel like that was one of the best parts of the Greeks. Their gods fucked up constantly, and everyone knew it. Fate is a flip of a coin, and so were the deities they worshiped

      So we’ve got Noah as Secretary of Defense and Lot as President. I’m guessing King David’s job is whatever Stephen Miller does.
