You do realize that when or if Donald Trump is sentenced to prison, American Evangelicals will branch off from Christianity and begin overtly worshiping him?
In a few hundred years our great, great, great grandchildren will be fighting to keep "In Trump We Trust" off the dollar, and young adults wearing white shirts and ties will be going door to door spreading the good news of MAGA.

Twice a month I stand with my #Jewish and #Atheist comrades outside #Abortion clinics while people from #Catholic and #Evangelical churches scream at women calling them murderers and sluts, and precisely zero #Christians show up to help patients or dissuade their brothers and sisters in Christ.
Getting really sick of “good” “progressive” Christians. Put up or shut up, folks.

#Christofacists calling their "License to be consequence-free assholes" "#ReligiousFreedomRestorationAct" (#RFRA) is just absolutely cruel #sarcasm to the point that if they want the right to be bigotted as protected, I think it's only acceptable for those they target to use the same baseball bat against them.
But I'm convinced #white #evangelical #heterocisbinary #men and their bootlicking #karen|s aka. #FARTs will go apeshit if thheir entitled asses get denied service for being assholes.

#Deconstructing Lot in #Sodom | Was Lot a #Righteous Man?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=whuUbwRdBMk
Did #God destroy an entire city because of "homosexuality"? Did #Lotswife long to go back to Sodom? Was Lot spared because he was a "righteous man"?
Let's #deconstruct the story of Lot in Sodom through our former #evangelical/#fundamentalist lens and see if we come to the same conclusions they wanted us to in #SundaySchool.

Sometimes ... it's just hard to put modern Christianity into words.
Still, in the end all religions are mostly horrible.

Evangelicals reject the Sermon on the Mount: "That doesn't work anymore. That's weak."

From what I can tell, #American #White #Evangelical faith is concerned with four things:
1) Abortion
2) Gender
3) Sexuality
4) Biblical Inerrancy
#4 is used to prop up 1 - 3, even though the Bible says precisely nothing about abortion, and very little about gender and sexuality.
I wouldn't be at all surprised if #4 is slowly deemphasized so AWE folks can more effectively build cross-faith coalitions with conservative Muslims, etc, who agree on 1 - 3.
Did you know God has a preferred form of government? I didn't.

It amazes me that U.S. #evangelical Christians largely ignore just how much #Trump rejects the core of #Christianity.
What he's saying here is pure Old Testament, eye-for-an-eye revenge with the added bonus that he hasn't even been wronged himself. Being held accountable for his misdeeds isn't a crime deserving of revenge.
He totally lacks any empathy or grace.

The loudest evangelical Christians today, especially in the United States, exemplify everything that I was taught is wrong with religion. They are all about rules and rituals, and love is nowhere to be found.
I find it hard to believe that a Christian who condemns someone they perceive as a “sinner” has a personal relationship with the One who hung out in the homes of tax collectors, prostitutes, and lepers.

I was born into an #Evangelical #Christian home in 1962. I knew from my first cognizant moment that I was a girl, but I had to argue that fact as soon as I could talk. A pesky protrusion noted on my birth day had me labeled wrong from the get-go.

The #Irrationality of #Evangelical #Conversion

They keep telling us to #repent before it's too late. But can you #rationally convert to a #religion that requires #faith to believe?

The average #Christian #evangelical has never heard of The Powell Memo, or read about health outcomes for places without abortion access, or met a gay or trans person. They got their marching orders at birth, and updates get programmed weekly through preachers and propaganda like FocusOnTheFetus and Fox - their only real deeply-held belief is that their daddies weren't wrong when they indoctrinated them.
