19. Our pastor told a story about a committee
Tue Feb 11, 2025, 01:41 PM
Feb 11

he had proposed a project to. He asked them to consider enlisting volunteers who could park at church, and walk down the block to a seniors community and participate in programs like reading to small groups, etc. One woman on the committee commented, "I don't get it. What do we get out of it?" The pastor told her, "We get nothing out of it, that's what makes it so Christian."

Everything is transactional to Trump. Aid, religion, Christianity, voters, parenting, marriage, relationships, everything. I'm surprised he doesn't expect a surprise every time he gives his toilet a big dump. (It's probably how he got toilet trained.)
