Christians *have* to sin.
If they don't, it's like Christ died for nothing.

This  all fits nicely with the conspiracy theory I'm trying to promote to christians that Trump is the antichrist. Look at revelation 6:2 "And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer." The horseman commonly interpreted as representing Pestilence is given a crown. "Corona" means "crown" in Latin.

Trump has declared a ban on travelers from Europe, to protect the U.S. from the foreign virus.

However, the ban doesn't apply to the U.K., because that would be racist.
The UK isn't part of Europe. They passed a referendum on it.

A fake documentary following the wildlife of a fictitious alien planet. No mention is made of humans or of sapient aliens or how this came to be filmed in-world. The focus is not space travel nor is it conservation, it is a straight wildlife documentary about fictitious animals

EDIT:
other ideas:

*A combination of Willard and the Disney version of Cinderella, in which the mice eat the abusive stepsisters and stepmother

*A christmas movie focused on what Santa does the rest of the year to fund his gift-giving operation. And its something unsavory like robbing banks or professional gambling or something. Or maybe pimping; Ho ho ho. Possibly the fact that he's santa claus is the twist ending. Like he's not in the red suit until the end, and while we see asome elves they're all wearing caps that conspicuously cover their ears until the very end.

In light of all this I'd like to remind all of you to donate money to the Democratic party so hopefully we can unseat this clown. I donated 225 dollars this week

Well then it is like Jesus (or buddha or king arthur or pirates or ninjas) - Its real but none of the things people believe about it are true.


I don't even know what you're trying to say, there.  "Here are a list of things which may or may not be real.  Which means they're real, only people believe wrong things about them"?

Pirates and ninjas and prince gautama definitely existed historically (and the other two probably did). Their depiction in the media and the popular imagination however is far from what is accurate or even plausible

That's a fair point

I mean, I don't really believe in all that bible stuff, but you have to admit he does have a lot of the properties of the antichrist and/or the devil

For example, the constant talk by his supporters about how Trump speaks from his heart is reminiscent of John 8:44

You people are from your father, the devil, and you want to do what your father desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not uphold the truth, because there is no truth in him. Whenever he lies, he speaks according to his own nature, because he is a liar and the father of lies.

Also Revelation 13:3 states that the beast will be wounded in the head, which could refer to Trump's dementia

Singularitarianism is just the same eschatological bullshit that's been bandied around for millenia, repackaged in a sci-fi package.

similarly, the simulation hypothesis is just young-earth creationism

And this is where you are, as always, ABSOLUTELY WRONG.

The "singularity" is the point at which it is impossible to track the current level of technology.  It's not a new concept.  Some science fiction writer decided that mean AI, and then the hippies got hold of it and it became Hal 9000 Jesus, but the original concept still means something.

You basically just Daily Callered yourself.

Well then it is like Jesus (or buddha or king arthur or pirates or ninjas) - Its real but none of the things people believe about it are true.

(On an unrelated note, whoever chose the name "singularity" botched the apparent black hole analogy up. They should have called it the "Tech Horizon")

It was towards the top of the board. It's not my fault that this forum is too toxic to have more than a half-dozen or so regular users.

Besides, it's not like the last post was five years and eleven months ago or something.

Eris wants credit for all the things she's done for us.

Eris wants to get into banking.

Bitch, she invented it.

Would have assumed Moloch did that.

I think you mean Mammon. Mammon's the greed one, Moloch is the one that sets kids on fire.

*The Picture of Dorian Gray retooled to be about televangelist Jim Bakker and how his inner nature as a clown-prostitute somehow manifested itself on the face of his wife Tammy Faye

*120 Days of Fairyland- A fantasy version of the Marquis de Sade's Les Cent Vingt Journees du Sodome. In this reimagining the rich libertines are replaced with unseelie elves, and the abuses that they inflict on their captibes and that their storytellers recount lean decidedly towards the magical, stuff like turning someone into a sow and putting them into a pen of horny boars

*A man becomes obsessed with the idea that different parts of his body might become cancerous and starts lopping them off. By the end of the story he's just a torso

*A parody of animes like Pokemon, Beyblade, and Yu-Gi-Oh in which a competition of some sort defines all of society. In this parody the competition is a literal dick measuring contest. The protagonist travels the world seeking pumps and pills and supplements so that he can be the best..

*A health class educational film for bugs (or possibly frogs), warning them about what to expect during metamorphosis

*A Terminator Christmas- An evil Christmas-hating AI from the future sends an android back in time to kill the Virgin Mary before she can give birth to the son of God

*A documentary about quantum physics which keeps people's attention by being hosted by a pair of hot twins who keep making crude double-entendres about the double slit experiment

*A fairytale/nursery rhyme themed film noir wherein Humpty Dumpty is a hardboiled detective

*A satirical combination of Heaven is for Real and Michelle Remembers in which a sick child travels to heaven and is molested by God before returning to earth when the hospital revives them.

*Blue Meth and Ham, a combination of Green Eggs and Ham and Breaking Bad

I'm imagining applications where you make a politician look insane,
There's very limited application for something like that; it would only be useful on the very small handful of politicians who aren't already insane. There's Barack Obama and possibly Al Gore, and that's all I can think of. And I think they're both retired anyway.
