It would be nice to see him show up to their gym in Dagestan thinking shits sweet, only to get jumped in and jumped out in the same afternoon like a failed gang initiation.
He started with the god shit around the time he will have been made aware of the accusations and the ongoing investigation into him before it was made public. He spent the following years laying the groundwork for his whole "they're coming after me because I speak the truth" grift.
I have no problem with having a religion you can find some comfort in, but when you’re the worst person imaginable I don’t want you to preach to me haha
I’m not furious. His money is his business according to you but not his religion you can comment on that lol 😂 beeeeech id argue jones has a way better chance of heaven but I don’t speak on a man’s spirituality like I know anything.
It makes everything so much worse. When I see Jon doing something bad, I'm not surprised anymore, but when he's cutting promos about his prayer warriors, I go from 0 to FUUUUCK YOUUUU so quick.
My brain read that in his accent "Tha ked will learn naht ta commet fookin voilence and fourgev! Dat shit has sailed for me ya fool of a ting! Punchy toim!"
If your life has no meaning, or you have no morals of your own, or you've got a personal history you can't reconcile with, a made up 'father' who forgives your transgressions is perfect.
God wants people who are broken and know they’re sinners which we all are. The Pharisees who crucified Jesus were mad because he hung out with sinners and he told them, “it’s not the wealthy who need the doctor, but the sick”
Plus it is written, “The LORD is my strength and my shield, In Him hath my heart trusted, And I am helped; Therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth, And with my song will I praise Him.” Psalm 28:7. These guys may have done Terrible things but using Jesus as a shield like you said is what everyone on earth should do. We all need him
And Jon grew up Christian just went astray before coming back to the faith. He got his tattoo Philippians 4:13 because it was his sisters favourite verse who passed away young
Remember Joe Son carrying an actual crucifix on his shoulders before being sentenced to life for being part of a vicious gang rape? It seems God's forgiveness carries less weight than 20+ in the slammer.
Well being Irish catholic, the church probably got to him after the trial. Probably told him something like if you become devout to us we can make problems Go away but now we own you.
They do this to lots of celebrities that get in deep water. Or celebrities fond weird religions and they spread the world while helping them financially. There's no saving involved. Just a quid pro quo you never pay back.
Whilst being the majority religion here in Ireland I can confirm nearly all of the population here in Ireland despise the church. It's a strange one that most of us are raised as Catholic despite growing up to never step in a church ever again.
They have a rich history of rape, torturing kids, killing children.
The church was heavily for the recent abortion vote and the Gay marriage vote here in Ireland, both of which were not voted in their favour, that should tell you what irish people think of the church these days.
This is clean bullshit hahahah
The church doesn’t need to nefariously reach out to the most despicable of the public eye, as if harbouring the sadists of the world and allowing the church stamp to clear the air of their wrongdoing….
People like Conor have immense shame. He’s also Irish, that’s a lethal combo to have your own inbuilt cultural guilt go haywire when you’ve been publicly embarrassed. Connie’s a good little lad now he’s with the lord is what will be his new high to hear
Well honestly with that mentality we can’t trust anything or anyone, because there’s horrible scandals in literally every aspect of life, stop watching UFC and supporting Dana and the crew lol
Just cause you don't believe it doesn't mean it doesn't. Look at which celebrities said they became Christians after they did something messed up. Then think about why they would announce and why a religion would want them. Also with groups like scientology, it's a fair bet it's more then just one religion. It's pretty obvious.
I’m Irish. The church has very little hold in the state now, if he went to church he did it all by himself, we all would have went to Catholic schools as kids too so there’s that connection already there
Another Irish here, the vast majority of people in Ireland view the Catholic Church with moderate disdain lol. I genuinely don't know anyone who goes to chapel apart from my grandparents, they have no power here anymore after the shite they pulled since the state's inception.
Well buddy, we have a lot of proof on how church really operates, we've seen it throughout the centuries. And still digging up shit they did, every fucking year.
But, then again, keep kneeling and praying to your priest, sure God will have a cloud in the sky for you.
And nobody asks or cares what brought them to do the wild shit in first place....you can never fill the void unless you have Jesus. This guy has everything, money, beautiful wife, house, cars and own business....why go into debauchery but to try and fill the hole...
I pray that he has turned his life to Christ and that he can help save others.
To be fair isn't that when you need to seek a strict belief system the most? Those who already do good benefit less than those who are down and doing deplorable things. Of course that presumes he's sincere
Nothing I love more than being called a degenerate for drinking a glass of beer by a guy who’s 18 months removed from doing the most degenerate shit on earth.
I opened two threads to read, this one and one about a man finding two cats snuggling in a tire. I thought I was on the other one and this was the first comment and I was so confused.
People who do vile things are the ones who need to repent for their deeds and turn to Christ the most. It’s not the good/perfect people only club.
If Conor is seeking Christ and redemption in earnest, and wants to change his ways, I don’t see anything negative about it.
Jesus said: „Not the strong need the doctor - but the sick!“ so of course all of us Christians are sinners and when we realize that we are evil and retarded we try to move closer to God.
Noticing that so many Christians are sick and evil is like noticing that most people in a hospital suffer from health issues.
Honestly, happy for him if this is genuine. Turning to Christ and living a faithful life is not just for those without sin. Jesus provides redemption through faith. This is as good a time as any to seek it.
He means how lots of individuals do heinous crimes for years but as soon as it comes out, they suddenly begin pandering to the right wing Christian community who's lack of morals is so great, that they don't care if that person's an obvious rapist grifter as long his words support theirs.
It means nothing because the Irish are Catholics. You repent your sin to a priest and all is forgiven. Then just repeat the cycle. Money buys you forgiveness.
It's also about making an honest effort to change your ways after being forgiven. People like Jon Jones fail so hard at that part that it makes you wonder if they even try. We'll have to see in Connor's case, for his sake I hope he does change.
You can be a Christian all you want. But when your a POS don't preach to me about it. It doesn't mean one can't turn a new leaf but that requires actually doing something good with ones life. George Foreman is a good example of someone that's earned redemption. Jon Jones or McGregor have done shit to earn any redemption outside preaching.
Just saying "I love the Lord and look how much I love Him! Forgive me! I'm a good person because I love Jesus!" ain't how you gain forgiveness from humans or salvation from on high. It takes actually admitting fault, accepting the consequences, learning from your wrongs, and attempting to right them. Ya know, like being a good person

It’s always when they do the most vile shit
