Vance Says He's Doing God's Work Even If It Means End Times

In a Monday podcast, JD Vance says he’s doing as much of God’s work as possible and is OK with end-times if that leads to a better world; he ties this to his Catholic faith and cautions against overemphasizing eschatology. He criticizes AI when it disrupts human social bonds, calling some uses “satanic,” and says he’s felt spiritual darkness in meetings with world leaders. He also defended Trump’s AI-generated meme depicting him as Jesus, arguing Trump loves Christians and didn’t intend to mock God, noting the meme was later deleted.
