I swear these fake Christians are the same people who will judge people for swearing and then have no problem telling someone on record they want to put brown people in concentration camps. If there is a God I hope he judges them accordingly.
It's also the same people who claim that moral integrity is the end-all-be-all in leadership while having no problem supporting a person for the ultimate leadership position whose views on women include "grab'em by the pussy." The moral superiority is pretty much gone.
75% holy fuck Evangelicals...
Out of pocket
Tax their churches.
"never again"
"...until it's convenient to advance my own agenda, of course."
I’m not religious but I looked up these passages to show how hypocritical they are:
Matthew 25:35 - “For I was a stranger and you welcomed me.”
Romans 12:13 - “Share with God’s people who are in need. Practice hospitality.”
Deuteronomy 10:18-19 - “Treat foreigners and sojourners with empathy and understanding, as they are vulnerable and in need.”
“Yeah but the Bible was talking about Christians, not Haitians and Mexicans”
-evangelicals, probably
obviously Jesus meant white people.
obviously white Jesus meant white people.
Get that WOKE SHIT outta my bible!
True Christians know that Jesus was a socialist 😂
THAT DOESNT COUNT ITS COMOLETELY DIFFERETN
people don't get their morality from religious texts, they use religious texts to justify and enforce their morality.
Just like when they supported the Nazis.
And the fascist apartheid regime committing genocide, invading neighboring countries, and killing US citizens as well as UN peacekeepers with impunity.
Look, there is a right way to go about this and a reich way.
(Insane that this is where the us is today)
So, religious cunts.
People who believe in the actual ideals of America are not split on this.
America is a nation of immigrants.
Tell that to the Japanese Americans during WW2.
The ideal murica you imagine is not the one that exists, and never has been.

It has a long history as an ideal that has always existed in the hearts of many. However the theocratic, white supremacist, capitalistic, and broadly phobic side of America is an inescapable fact that we have never been able to dispense with, and quite likely it is our doom.
So, religious cunts.
That's future ~~dictators~~ leaders of America tyvm! Get it right or get in the iron maiden!
:(
No, just don't do it.
This American is decidedly not split on the issue and owns heavy duty bolt cutters
I don't doubt these statistics. But there are also plenty of progressive Christians who don't think like this. I personally work with a whole slew of 'em
Definitely. There's a difference between evangelical Christians and progressive Christians. Evangelicals consider themselves "born again" and are usually very conservative and staunchly Republican and are usually Trump supporters. Those are the ones mentioned here.
Yep I was just trying to vocalize the broader point about non-evangelical progressive Christians because there seems to be an awful lot of anti-christian rhetoric on Lemmy and many users likely wouldn't recognize that nuance.
Yes, it's definitely worth mentioning. Thanks.
We are also split on using the military against Trumps enemies. There are a lot of people in this country who have lost their way.
The only people that belong in such camps are the ones who want to put others there.
Right, starting with the orange faced fucker
Just like Jesus would have done.
That long haired ethnic hippie? Throw him in there too.
Definitely. And after that, I'm sure Jesus would have picked up hammer and nails to finish that wall to keep all those pesky immigrants out.
Jesus would have used the nails out of his own hands to build a wall around his chosen country
George Washington, save me from your followers.
George needs to come back and do some table flipping.
We need to blow the horn.
Is that a wheel of time reference?
Fucked up
You have got to be fucking kidding me.
Yeah why stop a great American tradition
Let's make a poll about support for the slitting of puppy throats and see where we end up. Would hate to step on somebody else's political opinion on the subject.
Is there a non-paywalled link?
