- Calling these people out on their hypocrisy is a sucker’s game.
- Christian nationalists aren’t serious about religion in the first place. They don’t read the bible, and they cherry-pick & twist Jesus’ words to make a racist supply-side Jesus.
Chris Hedges, 2023: Fascism Comes to America | The failure of the liberal class to halt the corporate assault on working people has spawned an ascendant Christian fascism that is poised to seize power and radically reshape America.
They want to pretend to be Christian so the sheep keep voting for them.
I’m so sick of pretending that your belief in a magical being in the sky isn’t unhinged and should be taken seriously for any reason. I’m over it. It’s insane. I don’t care about your book. I don’t. Quit trying to use it to run my life.
For real, name another thousands of years old book people try to apply to modern life everyday. It is definitely on the level of mental illness to do this.
It is also a giant catch-22. If you go to church every weekend and believe in God with all your heart you can’t go and tell your congregation that God speaks to you. Even they will know you are crazy. It isn’t real and everyone except the truly crazy know this in their hearts.
People can congregate, create community, and love each other without an imaginary sky daddy telling them to. Morality comes from our social contract with each other not a dusty old book. It is and always will be about social control dictated by man, not God.
I just wish the amount of non religious people in North America was at least even. But it’s not, like 90 percent of people in North American are just nuts and believe in one form or another literal magic. edit: I guess it’s more like 30-35 percent non affiliated in North America. That’s still too low for me though.
its his christianity and many others. See any religion can be about anything and same with any denomination of a religion. When things are made up they can be anything. The mere existence of multiple religions that cannot incorporate each other invalidates them unless of course folks do the serious mental gymnastics which they will.
