I can handle a Pence caretaker for a few months. Trump has already done lgq whatever (Pence hates the gays) damage he can, and at least Pence won't handover the Ukraine to Putin.

Do we know anyone Else--with status beyond the menagerie of toadies-- who has stayed This long (mostly dead-silently)? I ƒeare the far-Righteous+Jesus faction most of the RWNJ's; each one would be 'honored' to follow-the-Leader and be crucified==Martyrs! for their Reward in that after.-life. (..after cowardly evasion of ackshully living in This one). {{sigh}}

The churches belong to Paul, who founded them, not to Jesus, who would certainly deny them. Jesus clearly stated he was to be judge of all, that he was so appointed by God, and that not even God would over-rule him, and he stated he would be looking for proof of living by his teachings - with works more important than faith. The "Hell of Fire" is going to be pretty crowded.

When I first met a longtime S.O. way-back--the topic of Paul's misogyny + other tell-tales of a scheming perverse-mind ... came up early. Thus began a mutual-admiration Society-of-two, (also free-of most-all religio-prestidigitations--that saved lots of wasted time :-) But none of us can earn the Cubic-Closest-Packing® igNobel more better than the WW-II legendary dispatch from a US U-boat: Saw sub. Sank same. OK maybe Piet Hein wins too, with If the Universe didn't exist It wouldn't be [rhymes with exist]
