Jessica-stormlover Feb’24 Veoaew wrote its Christianity’s attempt to have all bow to a narrow fucked up Christian belief system:

NotfooledbyW Jul’12 Veoaew: Let’s be clear going forward in voting our resistance to Trump’s asinine Republican “Base“ Christianity that we are precisely talking only about Trump voters who have or side with those having a fucked up religious belief system regarding the role of the “Holy Bible as the “Word of God” in our system of liberal western democracy and secular self-governance that is our national identity, heritage and treasure.

We are up against a huge lie that America was founded as a Christian.

The lie is told in many ways. Porter Rockwell started a thread in 2020 one year before we saw Trump’s fucked up angry Christians based on a subset of the lie that Trump won the 2020 election, so it also falls under big lie of all lies that America was founded as a Christens Nation. Trump’s saints attacked the cathedral of western liberal democracy on J6,2021.

Saint_Porterrockwell gets a little wishy-washy at the start of his white Christian nationalism diatribe in para ii , but it’s still a big lie just the same. The mother of all Trump lies. nfbw 240712 Veiaew00542

It's not really surprising.

Religious nutters WANT authoritarianism. Their entire mythos is based on it. They need daddy figures who they think are watching over them and watching out for them.

And since the god characters refuse to make an appearance, they turn to the next best thing. A mangod.

They want to turn this Country into a radical autocratic Evangelical state with their orange bellowing god as it's head & his cronies in tow. The only difference between the U.S. & some M.E. states will be the labels on religious texts that they want to shove down everyone's throat.

The MAGA dummies are too stoooooopid to see what's coming.

The Heritage Foundation — a well-funded, influential far-right group in Washington, DC — has been quietly vetting tens of thousands of arch-conservative acolytes to staff up the federal government under the next Republican administration as part of its "Project 2025" presidential transition plan. One scholar of authoritarian movements around the globe is sounding the alarm over what that would mean should former President Donald Trump win a second term in the White House.

During a Saturday segment on MSNBC, New York University professor Ruth Ben-Ghiat told host Ali Velshi that Project 2025 would effectively transform American government from a meritocratic democracy to a regime resembling Vladimir Putin's Russia. She pointed to Heritage's calls to eliminate numerous government agencies that serve as checks on the executive branch as merely one example.

"The essence of authoritarianism is removing restraints on the leader and making him immune from prosecution by domesticating government," Ben-Ghiat said. "And so some of what Project 2025 proposes, like abolishing the DOJ and the FBI is designed for that end, to make it impossible to prosecute Trump and allow him to commit crimes with impunity."

Sounds ominous to me! What do you think?

Sounds to me like Ruth Ben-Ghiat is one more liberal college professor making a living selling books and appearing on MSNBC and PBS to warn about the rise of right wing fascism in America. She's the reason why so many young people have lost the ability to think critically...professors who teach woke bullshit secure in their tenured ivy towers!

Your hatred of gays is disturbing

Hatred in general is disturbing

Sad that you’re so ruled by (negative) emotions

Says the Trump hater.

If you weren't such a hypocrite you'd almost be funny.

Says the Trump hater.

The First Amendment’s ban on establishment was to keep all religions and counter religions absolutely equal in every aspect of public life.

The purpose of the Establishment Clause also was ito keep government out of religion’s realm, thereby limiting government’s power. The founding generation designed the separation of church and state to protect everyone, not just Christians.


Trump came to power in 2016 ONLY because one faction of fanatical adherents to Christianity put him in the White House. Those religious fanatics have exposed through their support of such a mess of a human being since that time, culminating in J6,2021, that Trump supporters have no respect for our democratic institutions, our judicial system and separation of church and state. So I hate those religious fanatics and Trump. Every “decent” American should .

You people are haters.

You're full of fear and irrational hatred.

I care about the price of a loaf of bread.

Not some imaginary Boogeyman that doesn't even exist.

This thread gets a big fat yawn from Scruffy.

You people are haters.

If you do not hate Trump and the religious fanatics who support him for creating a criminal conspiracy in the J6,2021 attempt to overturn a presidential election to stay in power, you have no decency and are not fit to consider yourself an American. Hating what Trump did on J6,2021 is decency in action.
