I am here to report that I am not in the Epstein Files. I searched for my name, but it did not appear anywhere in the files. Boy, was I worried. 🙂 Donald Trump, of course, features prominently in the files, but just remember, he already been found innocent. Besides, Trump was never on Epstein’s Pervert Island. Right? Does anyone doubt Trump’s guilt? I mean outside of MAGA sycophants who wouldn’t believe he was guilty if God himself said he was.
Funny thing about God, the Big Man Upstairs is mentioned over 20,000 times in the files. Jesus is mentioned hundreds of times too. I know, I know, shocking. But, if you think about it, is it really surprising that God is in the Epstein Files? After all, God (Jesus) watched everything that happened on the Island, and did absolutely nothing. And I mean nothing. Think of all the debauchery that took place, perpetrated by rich men and women. Countless minors were abused, sexually assaulted, and raped, often brought to Pervert Island against their will. Yet, where was God? We are repeatedly told by Evangelicals that God is good and loving; that he cares about his creation and is intimately involved in our lives; that he will be there for us in our time of need. I would think being raped by powerful men would be a “time of need,” yes? Yet, we don’t have one report that says God saved any of the children from having their bodies disgustingly violated by men who thought they were above and beyond the law. Of course, it doesn’t hurt having a fine Christian like U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi protecting sexual predators at every turn. Never forget that Bondi was involved with Epstein’s perverse behavior all the way back to her days in Florida. She is up to her neck in the sewage of complicity, yet she l-o-v-e-s Jesus.
God has much to answer for, but like Trump, he is immune from prosecution. All any of us can do is oppose those who want to advance this evil God’s agenda. Any God who doesn’t care about the abuse of children is a deity unworthy of worship. Worship God if you must, but I shall not as long as he and his followers continue to support evil men doing despicable things to innocent children. This is a seminal moment for Evangelicals, and so far, all I see complicity, excuse-making, self-justification, and deliberate moral and ethical blindness.
