I’m Back Among The Living
It was a tough few days, but I’m recovering well…thanks for the prayers and kind words.
I won’t bore any of you with the details, except to say that this does not depict how I got better…
This deserves more commentary, but blasphemy speaks for itself for now…
Glad you are back, Michael.
As for the other… *sigh*
Glad you are doing better. (As for the picture, the ultimate decline, circling the drain, is when one becomes a parody of themselves.)
Michael,
Welcome back.
Considering that for 81% of the Evangelical Christians that voted and supported, to all of them, he is their Lord, Savior, and Messiah. However despite this outrageous picture, there is some truth in advertising in it. Notice the 3-horned flying figure above Trump’s head? According to the Book of Revelation, the Anti-Christ will do miracles, signs, wonders, and healing to deceive even the elect if were possible. Considering how vehement his defenders are, well, you see the point.
Can’t see the picture presently on my phone, but even so I’m fairly confident that it’s the one that shows the President (“Dr. Trump”) healing a random sick guy.
Glad you’re out.
MIchael, i’m glad you’re home. Keep getting better.
That ghastly picture popped up on my Facebook wall today (from an anti-Trump poster I know), and I really had to look at it to believe what I was seeing. I truly believe that Dear Leader is not playing with a full deck.
Thankful that you’re out of the hospital!!
When I first saw that picture yesterday, I had to pray for fruit of the Spirit, because I really wanted to cuss and spit.
Somebody asked AI to dial up the “Kinkade” setting to 11. I can’t imagine an actual human being going to the trouble to actually paint that.
I … guess that’s Starscream, Skywarp and Thundercracker up in the sky putting in for the Decepticon cause because I have no idea what those planes are really supposed to be.
Good to hear you are recovering!
Many Christian leaders who are usually fond of Trump have registered their disapproval of the image. This may represent another small step in the Church untethering itself from him.
People have noted that the image Trump used was modified from an earlier one that didn’t have the mysterious figure at the top. Not sure how that got there and what it’s supposed to be.
I have a feeling many of these Trump supporters upset at this image is because Trump said out loud what they really believe deep down inside (even though they would never admit it). When one is an idol worshiper, they usually don’t admit they are.

Before the Babylon Bee jumped the shark and went all in on MAGA, they had some gems pointing out of the messiah worship of the Orange Dear Leader:

Welcome back and glad you are (mostly) upright 🙂
As for Trump – it’s his thing. He wants the attention. He wants the outrage. He’s the living embodiment of the adage “All press is good press.”
I wish after 10 years people would just get used to rolling their eyes and moving on to the work of the day. If it’s so crass Sean Feucht and Megan Basham can call it out I think he’s doing what he intended to do — get people to ignore everything else going on.
Thankful you’re doing better, Michael!
Remember this picture was posted by the same man that recently posted a cartoon of himself flying a fighter jet, dumping feces on people who didn’t vote for him.
The Bee is still poking fun at Trump.
“BLASPHEMY: Pope Leo Shares AI Picture Depicting Himself As Donald Trump”
“Trump Predicts His Approval Ratings Will Be Resurrected In Three Days”
I hate to say it, but it’s true, and if the shoe fitz?
We (Americans) are the stoopidest people on the planet.
Great to see you here again Michael!
Eric,
Given this latest Trump outrage, I am imagine the Trump-loving “Christians” at the Bee had no choice to do something. But even those bits are nowhere near as witty as the Trump ones from years ago. Babylon Bee is like Family Guy, the first number of years were very funny and witty, but then it sucked.
Michael , good to see you are back with us! 😊
Micheal, I haven’t been online the last two weeks, so this message is not timely, but I’m glad you’re better and hope you continue to recover
Thanks everyone…currently upright with antibiotics and Prednisone…but getting there…
Hello Michael,
I hope your doctors and you are careful with the Prednisone. It is powerful stuff, but if one uses it for too long it causes your body to stop making its own cortisone and makes you puff out big time like the Michelin man. Usually they start with a high dose and taper it off to zero over the course of a few weeks to avoid these problems.
Ra’s al Ghul,
I’m only on it for a few days…it makes me highly productive, so I’m using it to my advantage.
Michael,
That’s good to hear. Predisone is about 4-5 times stronger than the natural cortisone your body makes. There are even stronger ones, but Predisone is the standard go-to.
People are calling the replacement of the soldier above his head a Baphomet. It looks like a free version of Adobe Acrobat AI superimposed something over the original soldier. However, the healing hands from stigmata and the whole Jesus-type get-up was crazy town… Around easter, after threatening to end a civilization. WTH
