Over at that great Liberty “University,” some official idiot invoked Stalin, Mao, and Hitler in defense of “conservative values”

These Christian fanatics keep shamelessly and without qualification invoking the same Hitler quote

Incredible. A "Christian" learning institution -- a faith supposedly based on the unconditional love and acceptance of #JesusChrist himself -- had to be stamped down over their pro-discrimination lawsuit.
What a world.

It is often exhausting, but the fight against Christian extremism is too important to abandon.

What It’s Like to Fight for Sterilization Surgery in a Post-‘Roe’ World

Following the overturn of Roe v. Wade last summer and abortion becoming outlawed or severely restricted in 14 states, doctors around the country are reporting an increase in requests for these surgeries.

TX OB/GYN: “I would guess I am at two times the number of sterilizations as I was doing two years ago”

"The process of shifting government funds out of public schools and into private religious organizations will happen slowly, and most people won't feel too worried about it so long as they believe they have a "choice" to put their kids in a secular institution. So when the plan finally comes to fruition and public schools collapse from defunding, most of the public will be caught flat-footed."

"As journalists, it is our obligation to entertain any and all pseudoscience that gives bigotry an intellectual veneer. We must be diligent in laundering our vitriol through the posture of journalistic inquiry, and we must be allowed to fixate on the genitals.

It is against free speech to stop us from fixating on the genitals."

I boosted this yesterday, but tbh The Onion should actually get a serious award for this one. #TheOnion #trans #ChristianExtremism #fascism

Queensland Police Deputy Commissioner Tracey Lindford on Thursday said their investigation had found the Trains "acted as an autonomous cell" and "executed a religiously-motivated terrorist attack".

They subscribed to a Christian fundamentalist belief system known as "pre-millennialism", and had targeted police.

"They did refer to police as monsters and demons - as evil."

"Christian extremist ideology has been linked to other attacks around the world, but this is the first time we've seen it appear in Australia," Ms Lindford said.

The attack was premeditated, she said, and investigators had found "significant evidence" of advance preparation and planning.

The property - owned by Gareth and Stacey - had been set up with camouflaged hideouts, barriers, dirt mounts, guns, knives, CCTV and mirrors on trees.

A shooting ambush in a remote Australian town that left six people dead has been declared a religiously-motivated terrorist attack.

Authorities say it is the first time Christian extremist ideology has been linked to a terror attack in Australia.

Two police officers and a neighbour were killed when Nathaniel, Stacey and Gareth Train opened fire on a rural property in Queensland last December.

The trio were shot dead after a lengthy stand-off with police.

"Christian nationalism is a political ideology that has received increasing public attention in recent years, especially after the role it played in the Jan. 6 insurrection. ...Americans who hold strongly Christian nationalist views are also more likely to support authoritarianism and to believe that violence may be justified in the pursuit of political goals." #ChristianNationalism #ChristianExtremism #politics

"But underneath it all was a seething groundswell of spiritually sanctioned incitement to violence that was impossible to ignore. The spiritual leaders of this new religio-political movement are using increasingly violent rhetoric to direct an inspired army of God to wage war against all who stand outside their camp." #ChristianExtremism #fascism #ChristianNationalism #politics #maga

Amidst all the doom and gloom in which we often find ourselves, I am encouraged to see more people talking about Christian nationalism these days. It has even been covered by some in our mainstream corporate-owned news media, which isn't something I ever thought I'd see. Christian nationalism is anti-democratic and needs to be defeated as many times as it takes.
