Contrasting Easter Messages

Donald Trump and Joe Biden's Very Different Easter Messages

President Biden simply said:
To all those gathering in churches and homes around the world today: Happy Easter.

May God bless and keep you.

Donald Trump, on the other hand, made his Easter message mainly a hateful diatribe almost entirely about himself and his grievances against Biden, the DOJ and anyone who disagreed with him in the slightest, including many of his fellow Republicans.
"HAPPY EASTER TO ALL, INCLUDING CROOKED AND CORRUPT PROSECUTORS AND JUDGES THAT ARE DOING EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO INTERFERE WITH THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION OF 2024, AND PUT ME IN PRISON, INCLUDING THOSE MANY PEOPLE THAT I COMPLETELY & TOTALLY DESPISE BECAUSE THEY WANT TO DESTROY AMERICA, A NOW FAILING NATION," he wrote.

Does anyone in their right mind think Trump's Easter greeting is in any way more preferable, reasonable or admirable than Biden's?

Disgrace and embarrassment indeed!

No precept or claim is more suspect or more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

Statement from President Joe Biden on Easter

Jill and I send our warmest wishes to Christians around the world celebrating Easter Sunday. Easter reminds us of the power of hope and the promise of Christ’s Resurrection.

As we gather with loved ones, we remember Jesus’ sacrifice. We pray for one another and cherish the blessing of the dawn of new possibilities. And with wars and conflict taking a toll on innocent lives around the world, we renew our commitment to work for peace, security, and dignity for all people.

From our family to yours, happy Easter and may God bless you.

Even better! Trump, himself, though he will never have the wit or honesty to realize it, is his own best argument for never putting him in the Whitehouse, or any other elective office or position of authority ever again.

We should crucify Trump and see if he resurrects. Then we'll either have proof he's divine, or he'll no longer be a problem. Win-win.
Religion is for people whose existential fear is greater than their common sense.

The god idea is popular with desperate people.
