It really isn't that amazing to me anymore. Humans tend to be very gullible and very easily led. Edward Bernays was hired to do exactly that, by Woodrow Wilson a century ago.
I would never, ever have guessed that one person could make a large portion of Christianity just throw their religion under the bus like this. What it demonstrates is that these people aren't as serious about their religion as they pretend to be. There are MAGA Christians™, and there are serious Christians.
Though I am a strong supporter of the letter and spirit of the First Amendment, IMO organized religion is the bane of mankind. In the name of religion, more wars have been waged, more intolerance and hatred have been bred, and more destruction has been caused than any other thing, and sort of related, our 2 party system is morally and intellectually bankrupt.
Irrelevant? The Constitution is irrelevant in your world? WHEN DID WE DECLARE WAR ON VENEZUELA?

I've always thought that, at its foundation, religion provides answers, strength, comfort, guidance, direction. Those all seem like good things. Unfortunately we see (a) organized religion divided into heirarchies that inevitably become corrupt, and (b) people use/cherry pick their religion as a weapon and/or an excuse. That to me is where it goes off the rails.
In the name of religion
Ukraine and the United States are working in tandem. It’s only a matter of time before both of the world’s predatory states — the Moscow 
empire and Venezuela — collapse without the flood of oil and gas cash that sustains them. empire — can only balance its budget if oil prices remain at $42.4 or higher.
It is primarily about a failed, corrupt Regime that now serves as a global hub for international corruption involving China, Russia and just about every other evil foreign regime that wants a piece of the action. It's about illegal drugs, human trafficking and yes, oil is a big part of that picture.
update : Ukraine hitting offshore oil fields in the Caspian shows Ukrainian-NATO precision and reach. the
imperialists should prepare for 1991 OIL and imperial collapse 
And yours come naturally?
"innocent," huh?
We should be putting sanctions on them.
When the oil is embargoed, your trite analysis falls flat.
If the article I read is correct, it implies that this vessel was falsely flying under another country's flag, and the parent company and vessel owners were sanctioned previously for another vessel improperly ignoring our sanctions and supplying oil to sanctioned countries....so this vessel owned by the same parent heading allegedly towards a sanctioned destination, and flying under a false flag, was boarded by the US Coast guard for inspection and apprehended....
Great news — it’s obvious that
Unfortunately, many of our members still don’t understand the strategic game that Trump and Reagan played against the Moscow empire. Without oil revenues, Putin cannot fund his imperial ambitions. Trump’s oil tariffs and sanctions will drive the total disintegration of khan putin’s war economy, just as happened in 1991. When the price of “black gold” fell to $15–23 per barrel, the Bolshevik’s imperial economy collapsed, and with it the Bolshevik empire itself. Today, the so‑called “Golden Horde” — the Moscow
And this is the core of Trump’s peace plan: cut off the empire’s lifeblood, and peace follows.

I guess I've never seen Christians and particularly ethical or moral. So this doesn't seem notable really. That's not an insult to Christians - they're no worse than the rest of us. Just the people rarely follow the ideology they profess.
