They're laying it on thick with the He Gets Us campaign during the Super Bowl again. Just a reminder that one of the guys behind it was also behind the Swift Boat ads.... Waitaminute!

What I saw was unbiblical attempts to compare illegals to a poor and homeless Jesus.

Does anybody actually try to make the argument that it's unbiblical or are they letting faith take the wheel on this claim?

I'm sure the word biblical is being said regardless of whether they know what it means.

modern american christianity is a cult of mammon dressed in the flayed skin of jesus, you could replace "unbiblical" with "woke" and it'd be the same statement
