Calvinists Rally Behind Trump After Supporters Called “Trash”

“I’ve heard worse things from my pastor! The hymns I sing every Sunday call me worse things than garbage!” Reformed Man Exclaims

In a twist that has left political analysts scratching their heads, a group of undecided Calvinists has swung their support to Donald Trump after President Biden reportedly referred to them as “trash.” This unexpected endorsement has sparked laughter and confusion, all while highlighting the Calvinist doctrine of **total depravity**, which posits that all humans are inherently sinful.

Trash Talk and Total Depravity

For those unfamiliar, total depravity means that Calvinists believe they are born sinful—like a broken toaster that only burns toast. So when Biden’s comments hit the airwaves, many Calvinists found themselves chuckling. One particularly bemused Calvinist, “Dave from the Reformed Church,” noted, “Honestly, I’ve heard worse things from my pastor! The hymns I sing every Sunday call me worse things than garbage!”

The Great Shift: From Undecided to Trump-ified

As news of Biden’s remarks spread through the pews, undecided Calvinists began rallying around Trump like moths to a flame. “I never thought I’d vote for Trump,” confessed another Calvinist named “Karen,” knitting a MAGA-themed prayer shawl. “But if Biden thinks I’m trash, I might as well embrace it!”

Political strategists are baffled. “It’s like watching a theological soap opera unfold,” one analyst remarked. “You have the President calling out a group that already believes they’re trash, and suddenly they’re waving Trump flags!”

### A New Era of Political Theology

In response, Trump has taken to social media, declaring, “I love Calvinists! They’re great people—tremendously depraved!” Meanwhile, Biden’s team is scrambling in damage control. “We didn’t mean it literally!” one aide exclaimed.

This unlikely alliance between undecided Calvinists and Donald Trump serves as a reminder that politics can be stranger than fiction—and often funnier than your average Sunday sermon. As we head into election season, one thing is clear: when it comes to trash talk and total depravity, nothing is off the table!

Martin Luther’s Surprising Opening at the Diet of Worms: “I Grew Up In A Middle Class Family”

What He Could Be (Protestant), Unburdened By What Has Been (Rome) Worms, 1521 – Newly uncovered manuscripts reveal that Martin Luther's famous speech at the Diet of Worms began with an unexpected twist: "Let me start by saying that I grew up in a middle-class family." Luther's opening left the audience puzzled but intrigued. He quickly transitioned to his main argument, maintaining the fiery rhetoric we know today. "Here I stand, I can do no other," he declared, seamlessly blending his personal story with his defiance against the Church. Historians now see Luther's relatable approach as a clever tactic to connect with the common people. "By sharing his humble beginnings, Luther made his revolutionary ideas more accessible," said Dr. Hans Wurst, a Reformation scholar. As we commemorate the Diet of Worms, let's remember Luther not just as a reformer, but as a middle-class hero who knew how to captivate a crowd.

Christian Pacifists Reinterpret Romans 13 After Tragic Animal Incidents

Fred and Peanut Become Latest Mascots for Justice In a surprising twist, Christian pacifists have taken a page from the revolutionary Presbyterians' book by reinterpreting Romans 13, following the tragic demise of Fred the squirrel and Peanut the raccoon at the hands of government officials. These furry martyrs have sparked a theological debate, as pacifists now argue that Romans 13 supports civil disobedience against unjust state actions. Fred and Peanut, beloved local mascots, were allegedly "neutralized" for causing minor disruptions in a public park. Their untimely deaths have become a rallying cry for pacifists, who argue that the state's actions were neither just nor necessary. In response, pacifists assert that Romans 13, traditionally seen as a call to obey governing authorities, actually mandates resistance when the state acts contrary to God's will. They emphasize Paul's call to "overcome evil with good" (Romans 12:21) as a directive to ch...

Satanists Boycott Halloween, Claim It's a Christian Holiday

Satanists Say No to Halloween, Yes to Satan: How a Religious Minority Is Challenging the Status Quo A group of satanists has announced that they will not be celebrating Halloween this year, citing religious reasons. The group, which calls itself the Church of Satan, said that Halloween is actually a Christian holiday that has been corrupted by commercialism and paganism. "Halloween is derived from All Hallows' Eve, the eve of the Christian feast of All Saints' Day," said a spokesperson for the Church of Satan. "It is a time when Christians honor their dead and pray for their souls. We, as satanists, do not believe in such superstitions and do not want to participate in this mockery of our faith." The spokesperson added that Halloween also promotes witchcraft, ghosts, vampires, zombies, and other supernatural creatures that have nothing to do with satanism. "We are not interested in dressing up as fictional characters or begging for candy from strangers....
