He's not Christian and not a billionaire.

Well, first off, he’s not good, a Christian, or a billionaire. So….
cabalin
He’s the “new” Christian
PlankTableGo
Its almost as if every single one of them was a horrible person. Same goes for billionaires
Isgrimnur
Look up the works of the Hobby Lobby owners.
YourFellowMan
A true billionaire Christian would be giving most of thier wealth to the needy. “Billionaire Christian” is an oxymoron.
PuzzledCompletely
And not in Bibles. In food, clothing, etc.
terajack2048
He probably took them from his hotel….
zombywoof68
Then how would he pay off porn stars? Or his lawyers?
THEFLOATINGMARKET
I'm stuck in the middle with my siblings. My brother thinks selling them is a great idea, my sister doesn't even like the fact that some people give them away.
Alozar
Your sister is right. Why donate bibles when you can donate food and money? You can't eat a Bible! Well, I guess you could, but it wouldn't be good for you. The only reason anyone "donates" bibles is to spread their faith which doesn't help anyone. Practice, don't preach.

The usually give them away. Like the Gideon’s. https://youtu.be/Rz6KC-Knaxo?si=1XqV9ATw1yNeyKE3

Bible sale is a grift to allow unlimited donations from church groups to Trump. This is just an illegal campaign donation activity. Also Trump worships money not god.
BobRossHB
We should excommunicate all billionaires and most millionaires too. And tax the churches after we start taxing the rich fully
nrg117
why are you advertising for him ??
Hurch
A non-Christian businessman/con-man wouldn't know this.
Heelcat70
That guy Gideon must be pretty loaded though.
DeadWhiteMale
Trump is not a Christian. He plays one to attract money, but he knows no more about Christianity than a stone.
celticlich
Billionaires shouldn't exist.
16bitStarbuck
Thanks for letting us know.
neffstradamus
If birds aren't real billionaires shouldn't be either
SwiftyGuy
Hate to say it, but yep, that’s including Taylor Swift, even though she seems to be a good person
ILikeToCookAndPlayBoardGames
At least she delivers real value in the form of entertainment. The only reason Trump has money is because he doesn’t pay for anything and has a braindead cult that funnels him their paychecks
buttonfly
Fair enough but if anybody is searching for clues as to character at this point, maybe character assessment isn’t for you
TerribleBot
And not only bibles.
symbolon
Well. There you have it.
Burke616
A true billionaire Christian would be donating their billions.
PrincessLeliana
There's no such thing as a billionaire christian. Its not possible, it says so in the bible.
jimmehboi
This is the right takeaway. For Christians, anyone becoming rich while their neighbors suffer is not following the example of the Messiah.
symbolon
People don't tend to read it though
RedStarVidal
I thought you were allowed to be rich if you could thread a donkey through the eye of a needle. Seems simple enough with the technology we have today.
cousteau
I don't know about donkey miniaturization, but needle maxiaturization seems reasonably simple.
Nalianna
Depends how thin you're slicing your donkey, really.
Mandarinduckmama
Camel, cuz the humps make it harder.
RedStarVidal
That's where you're wrong, the humps make it easier to get the camel through using an s motion. It's harder to thread a straight thread / donkey.
staceyjorgenson31415
That’s easy 😊 If you’re not worried about putting it back together again on the other side 😉
RedStarVidal
Hey - the big man never said anything about how the Donkey would look on the other side.
Murmull
Also there is no such thing as true or false christian.

DasParsonage
A term that designates anything means nothing.
Mahabazu
Oh no! We've upset the vainglorious!
dentd
Sure there is. Christianity literally has guidelines and rules -if you're not following those but calling yourself a Christian, then you're not a true Christian.
Mahabazu
Those whom call themselves "christians" don't agree on "the guidelines and rules." Therefore there is no such thing as a true or false christian -- since the only requirement is the self proclamation of being "christian."
Mahabazu
The Amish "christians" believe living a humble life is christain thus those whom aren't as humble aren't christians. The Jehovah’s witness believe those who celebrate easter with eggs and Christmas with trees are not christian. The list of rules and guidelines to be "christian" is as diverse and inconsistent as all the types of christians.
Mahabazu
There are pentacostal whom practice snake handling and drinking poison as a demonstration of the strength of their faith. They quote the Gospel of Mark (chapter 16) and the Gospel of Luke to support the practice. Those that don't handle serpent don't have the faith of a real christian.
SaintSleepyWeasel
What if we used Canadian dollars?
TalkingSnake
The eye of a needle, okay? No one is saying this. No one was this until I said this. The eye.
Of.
a needle...
It's yuge. They don't want you to know about it. It's so big it's almost as tall as Trump Tower, the tallest building in New York since September of 2001. Look it up. Everyone knows it. And Trump Tower, Trump.... tower.... It's all gold.

TalkingSnake
I apologize for the psychic damage.
ConstantBitRate
It was explained to me like this: "The "Eye of the Needle" was indeed a narrow gateway into Jerusalem. Since camels were heavily loaded with goods and riders, they would need to be un-loaded in order to pass through. Therefore, the analogy is that a rich man would have to similarly unload his material possessions in order to enter heaven." (really that's the first result I found but it is phrased better than I would have come up with... )
Jhf2112
According to the BBC show QI's research team there's never been a gate in Jerusalem documented as having that name. It is likely an attempt to circumvent the more radical meaning in the bible
ConstantBitRate
Quite possibly. Considering it's ALL 1700-2000 year old hearsay anyway.
IlikehowScottishpeopletalk
I think it means unloading your stuff, you can't take it with you when you die.
Jhf2112
I think it means the life you have to live to accumulate wealth is incompatible with being a good Christian. You cannot serve money and God. Serving money your whole life and then shedding it before you die feels like a cop-out.
