Understand their fear


Herodotus
 Share

Recommended Posts

Christianity is a beautiful and ancient religion that has done a lot of good, hospitals, universities, art, music, literature, women's rights, and a lot more.  However, in this country it has been hijacked by right wing authoritarians as a mechanism for control.  It has turned a religion of hope into one of fear and control.  So if you want to have an honest conversation with a right wing evangelical you have to understand their particular programming, their fears, their lack of understanding and the load of poor theology in which they are steeped.  

A good place to start in learning is this documentary 

This one too

Religion is brainwashing designed to rule people by instilling fear and a demand for money

A high-powered mutant of some kind, never even considered for mass production.

Too weird to live, and too rare to die.”

When you talk about  Christians , do you include Catholics? Arent they Christians? 

1. Of course Catholics are Christian.  If not for the Catholic Church, Orthodox Church, and the Copts there wouldn't be Christianity.  Not one Baptist in the Bunch until after Henry.

 

2. Most of the rapture eschatology nuttery comes from evangelical and or fundamentalist Protestantism and as rapture eschatology foments most of the zionist nuttery in this country I focus on protestantism

There have been pretty strong opinions in the thread and most of it is pure bigotry. It's so ignorant how leftists LOVE to categorize millions of people that they have never met and assign a particular narrative usually based on the actions of a few.

Aren't you doing the same thing with "Leftists". God you are ingnorant. Welfare recipient.

Nope, it's because you're an apologist who thinks all 91 charges are bullshit, and he's completely innocent of all of them

In this case, you don’t even have one!

I don’t know why you would say that. It’s pretty simple. Rich has never been will never say anything negative about Trump left and all of you think that these charges against him are nothing more than a witchhunt and that they’re all made up and fake. 91 bullshit, invented charges against a man who is completely innocent of everything. Except being the best president this country ever had.

And then you’ll tell me it’s not a cult

Liar. I've called him an idiot and a narcissist but you refuse to remember that because I don't despise him like you claimed you do. You get butthurt because I think Joe Blow is  the worst president ever and you are an apologist. 

I've already stated I want DeSantis and you keep calling me a maga. Duh!!!
