Yes.

YESSS! A NAZI DIED!

today!

[conditional_soup@lemm.ee]

Yeah, that's the money changers. He showed up and saw people doing financial trades in THE temple. It'd be like seeing a western union in the Vatican, though it may have been more extreme. Jesus made a whip by hand, busted in, and started flipping tables and chasing folks with the whip. It seems to be no coincidence that he was crucified pretty shortly after that particular stunt. Everyone in power was happy to roll their eyes and scoff until he touched the money.

[mrmobius@sh.itjust.works]

It's probably a coincidence but Jean-Marie Le Pen died today you know!

[earphone843@sh.itjust.works]

Jesus would beat modern Christians to death with his bare hands. I guess that's why he's supposed to be wrathful when he returns.

[thedoozer@lemmy.world]

It wasn't just people making money, it was that the money changers and the temple were working together to fleece the devout who were coming from far away to show their faith.

It's not like if somebody had a for-profit Cafe inside a church, it's more like the televangelist that use other peoples' devotion to get rich, saying you have to pay more and more to get into heaven.

[majorhavoc@programming.dev]

Yeah. Sometimes the compassionate thing is to call out shitheads so the people they shit on don't have to feel so alone.

[qevlarr@lemmy.world]

Bye Jean-Marie, you will not be missed

Hey don't drag Kenneth copeland's good name. He needs a brand new jet so he can spread the word of God without associating with the demons in commercial flights.

[clbull@lemmy.world]

Not Marine Le Pen, her far more racist dad.

I can't unsee two tiny eyes peeking over the sunglasses.

Slinky don't fall far from the previous step sometimes

[blackbelt352@lemmy.world]

Eh people overblow what Jesus did to the moneychangers and merchants in the temple. Yeah he made a whip and used it to drive the animals out, and he flipped over the tables scattering the money everywhere. But he never tried to to hurt people, just get them out of the temple and disrupt all the commerce going on.

Jesus Christ Superstar's temple scene is probably the most accurate recreation of that passage as written in the Bible. He trashed all the stuff, flipped tables and sent everyone else away.

[conditional_soup@lemm.ee]

While true, can you imagine Fox news' coverage of just such an action today? He might as well have [redacted] by the way those actions would be portrayed.

[needthosepylons@lemmy.world]

J'ai repris deux fois des frites ce soir, bye bye Jean-Marie, tu ne nous manqueras pas.

[bluemagma@sh.itjust.works]

She is just as racist as her dad. But not as dead yet.

[durbanpoison@feddit.nl]

Ah

So she's having a shit day.

I can celebrate at that at, least

[greenknight23@lemmy.world]

remember kids, if you get upset when Nazis die, you're a Nazi sympathizer.

[clbull@lemmy.world]

She expelled her dad from the party for not toning down his rhetoric.
