    Becoming a priest doesn’t always abolish your past, but JFC how messed up do you have to be to execute one on shaky evidence? Imagine if this happened to a white preacher. Evangelicals would be foaming at the mouth at how “There’s a war on Jesus and Christianity!” It would fuel their persecution complex for decades.

    But since it’s a black Muslim, nothing will fundamentally change. This country is completely okay with killing sections of its population, so long as they aren’t straight, cishet WASPS. And even then, lol.
