“I’ll tell you a secret, since media is not here. Thank you for not allowing the media in. Look, I’m a Southern Baptist, I don’t wanna get too spooky on you, But, you know, the Lord speaks to your heart.
“The Lord began to wake me up, through this three-week process, in the middle of night to speak to me. The Lord impressed upon my heart a few weeks before this happened that something was going to occur.
“And the Lord very specifically told me in my prayers to prepare, but to wait. At the time, I assumed the Lord was going to choose a new Moses and thank you, Lord, you’re going to allow me to be Aaron to Moses.
“I had this sense that we were going to come to a Red Sea moment in our Republican conference and in the county at large. God had been speaking to me about this, and the Lord told me very clearly to prepare and be ready.
“Ultimately 13 people ran for the post. And the Lord kept telling me to, ‘Wait, wait, wait.’ So I waited, I waited. And then at the end the Lord said, ‘Now step forward.’
“Me? I’m supposed to be Aaron. ‘No,’ the Lord said, ‘Step forward.’” – Mike Johnson, speaking last night to the far-right National Association of Christian Lawmakers.
This man is a true believer. True believers do not compromise anything that goes against what they believe their religion tells them. This man is far more dangerous than Donald Trump, who is simply a grifter and was in it for himself. This guy thinks the gods have ordained him. Anybody who stands against him is going against God, in his own mind.
That dude is terrifying
He is, i hope his son is ok.
I promise you his son is not ok. Nobody in an extremist religion comes out ok. Assuming he ever wakes up and escapes, that is.
He’s been made responsible for his father’s porn use. That is just one example we know of. Fundamentalist Christianity is damaging in a lot of ways without having to keep your own dad from watching porn.
Oh yeah, of course he has procreated. His son will probably end up being a monster too
Well, when you and dad are porn prevention buddies… I imagine that leaves an impact.
Do you think they both sit together ‘preventing porn’?
Punishing their sinful genitals. Squeezing. Choking them. Until the Sin erupts out in a hideous milky ooze which they clean off each other in the warm glow of knowing that God has spoken and is grateful of their efforts.
Tbh what else can one imagine? I’m no father, but i know that i would never ever want to be involved in any way in my son’s sexual life, development and experiences. Let alone try to shape and control it.
You’ve been a bad boy… and then what, they talk about it? Do they handle this behind closed doors or at the dinner table?
Either way, WTF Johnson?
That’s what i had in mind. I’m sure this is not the only utterly out of place behavior he subjects the people around him to.
It’s that or completely disown the entire thing. Tends to go one way or the other.
He’s not. He got crucified.
Oh wait, you mean Mike Johnson’s son.
He got better a couple of days later though!
Strong Montey Python vibes there.
