    @Saleh

    Why the fuck is that monster even in ICJ?

    It is disgusting to read her comments, these Christian Zionists should not be allowed close to any position in the justice system anywhere in the world MUCH LESS as vice president of ICJ.

    Prove it then.

    It’s more likely that Sebutinde hears voices in her head and just assumes “The Lord” is speaking to her 🙄.

    @Saleh I respect believers, but she is claiming to speak on behalf of God. It seems to me therapy would be advisable. I think in a very stressful environment, people can come to rely on something familiar and they hold it as a comforting pillow. I don’t feel we should be too harsh, this person probably just needs a break. Or a break and therapy.

      I am religious. I find the idea of purposefully bringing on the end of times strongly contradictory to my understanding of the Abrahamic religions. It is not the place of humans to decide, when the end times come, nor do humans have the power to do so. And the idea that purposefully bringing on the end of the world would be rewarded, instead of punished, by God is incomprehensible to me.

      There is a narration both in Judaism and Islam, that emphasizes this:

      https://bliis.org/essay/planting-a-tree-in-the-end-times-an-analysis-of-an-islamic-and-jewish-saying/

      “If the [Day of] Resurrection were established upon one of you, and in his hand is a sapling, then he should plant it.”
      عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنْ قَامَتْ عَلَى أَحَدِكُمْ الْقِيَامَةُ وَفِي يَدِهِ فَسْلَةٌ فَلْيَغْرِسْهَا[1][2]

      “If you are holding a sapling in your hand and someone tells you, ‘Come quickly, the Messiah is here!’, first finish planting the tree and then go to greet the Messiah.” – Rabban Yohanan ben Zakkai (30 BC – 90 CE),
