#Repentance
Repentance would be a good starting point.
I’ve heard a lot of hot takes from Republicans on the midterms, but this is a new one.

Well, it looks as if someone will have plenty of time to work on repentance.

Graham: Father, we know if we confess our sins and repent...

Trump: *after that sinks in, looks up and glares*

Trump doesn't do repentance. He tried to negotiate with interviewers in 2015 and 2016 that taking communion was the same as confession and repentance.

Trump made a face at the beginning of Franklin Graham’s prayer, was looking around during it, and at one point began glaring in his direction.

they transgressed (slightly and understandably imo) and then repented. their repentance counts for nothing of course, with the online moral order being the graceless thing that it is

anyway socially policing one another is always the wrong approach and you guys just can't let it go

I feel compelled by both philosophical conviction and religious sentiment to actually genuinely for real be libertine in my social attitudes to various things, and forgiving of people who have sinned but shown repentance. These are real convictions for me. I find them among the hardest to live.

An hour of fasting? That’s his idea of repentance?
November 9, 2026 at 9:45 PM
nah this is rubbish, allow repentance and forgiveness or else what are you saying - they have nothing to lose so may as well just burn whatever now?

Doesn't repentance entail admitting the crime?
November 9, 2026 at 3:34 PM
Yeah, they always miss the part about repentance. Actual repentance.

Has Franklyn Graham "acknowledged his sins and turned from them in repentance"? I think Franky is heading for the baaad place!

Apolitical was just another image unrelated to reality. In fact:

“In his later years, Graham openly expressed deep regret and repentance over getting so entangled in partisan politics, admitting that doing so compromised his spiritual mission and allowed religion to be used for polarization.” NPR

Being religious should not in itself count in migitation. If it leads to sincere repentance then yes, it could in practice mitigate the sentence. But it's the repentance that counts and religious faith isn't necessary for that. In any case repentance and a plea of not guilty don't fit well together.

The Sheriff in this Hallmark Holiday themed murder mystery show seems like the kinda guy who’d absolutely ask if you wanted to “pray for repentance together” after a hookup.

You can't claim to have converted to Christianity without repentance
Russell Brand pivoting to religion/health/wellness “influencer” as a way to deflect from his crimes is one of the most cynical things I’ve ever seen. Hope he gets a long prison sentence. He literally bragged about assaulting people during his act. Nasty piece of work.

Salvation = (Faith + Baptism + Repentance) * NASDAQ
I love you all so here's a link to the last 3 minutes, if you want to see Trump confronting his own mortality while Ross Douthat straight up tells him he's not gonna be getting into heaven

Yes…I don’t think any amount of Hail Marys is enough for his repentance.

Pretty sure repentance is a prerequisite?
