I... The ba Fuck... What?

This is a real billboard outside of St Louis.  Snopes confirms it and everything.  However they don't know who put it up.  This a a joke right?  Fundies aren't really saying Trump is Jesus right?  RIGHT???

What if a Democrat made that billboard to make fun of conservative Christians.

I for one would very much be in favour of that. We need more people openly mocking religion for the superstitious bullshit that it is.

Except they didn't.  This is a real conservative group that thinks the Orange Piss Pot's the second coming.

Ironbite-these people need to be ended.

Since I posted this Snopes has found the group behind the billboard

Quote
We met as a team last night to discuss how much hatred we’ve received for our efforts to encourage fellow believers in holding fast to the faith. We prayed that the facebook page would be a community for fellow Christians to be encouraged at what God is doing in the world and to find out how they could, like our president, be a part of being God’s presence in making America great. But the hateful comments and mean spiritedness from liberals and atheists drowned out the voices of Christians in this country. These reflect the level of unfair deranged media attacks on the President in general and his supporters.

Our billboard IS NOT equating Jesus with President Donald Trump. Salvation comes only from a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, not any man. But God does send his messengers to us, and just as King David liberated the faithful in his day, President Trump is doing this today through his protection of the unborn, defense of our land against foreign invaders and standing up for Israel…

So they're not say Trump is Jesus, just a dictator who rules by divine right and how dare you persecute Christians by saying he's not doing a very good job!

The more I hear the term, the more "the unborn" sounds like some kind of monster-god from D&D.

Atropals (http://www.wizards.com/dnd/images/EPIC_Gallery/Gallery5a/44165_C5_atropal.jpg) are literally undead stillborn gods. Feel free to use that mental image whenever a pro-birth death cultist uses the topic of abortion as the ultimate justification for their political tribalism.

HA.  Oh, I know all about atropals.  My brother got me the Epic Level Handbook for my birthday when I was in high school.  I still got it around here, somewhere.  Makes me chuckle when people are like "how hard could an undead baby be?  IMMA YEETUS THAT FETUS!" ... and then wonder why they get mulched when their DM brings one down on 'em.
