Comment on President Trump suggested people shouldn’t feel sorry for Joe Biden over his cancer diagnosis

  You might hate it, but the vast majority of practicing Christians uneducated lead poisoned propaganda brainwashed Americans support him.

  FTFY.

  Christianity has little to do with it as the GOP does not have anything to do with true Christian values.

    Stop pretending that the vast majority of practicing Christians don’t support him 100%. We all know it’s true, we see their preachers saying it all the time.

    I honestly can’t remember the last time I saw a major Christian figure seriously criticize this administration, or speak out against Trump. The Pope has had a little to say, but it’s still about as strong as a parent telling a child that they are “disappointed.”

    I’m waiting for a major political figure to condemn this administration, and tell their followers to resist this immoral, evil administration at every opportunity, but none of them have, and none of them will. Because ultimately, religion isn’t about right and wrong, or good vs evil, it’s about money and control, and in that concept, religion and MAGA are 100% aligned.

      Saying that religion is only about money and control is like saying “computer games are all about violence”

      Both are ignorant statements.

      Evil people have attained great power. These people aren’t Christians, yet they pretend they are. These people prey on the poorly educated and the mentally ill.

      Pretending to be Christian is just one of the tools in their arsenal.

      Sincerely,

      A Christian of 5 years who for 40 years was an extremely cocky atheist.

        Christians are a core MAGA demographic, like it or not. Christianity is a violent terrorist hate group, and always has been.

        Sure they do nice stuff now and then, but so do all evil people and organizations. Escobar built schools and churches, Hitler liked dogs and children, who fucking cares? None of their token good works offsets the evil they have done, and continue to do, and that includes ALL religions.

        It is all about money and control. You cannot argue any other way. That is what religion does. It may not be what it evolves into exactly, and it may not be what the believers even want.

        But there is no denying it, every modern example is this way without exception. You think people in the past were any different? You think that is why for the longest time Christians weren’t even allowed to read their own book?

        Religion is a tool to enrich some and control others. There are very few exceptions.

    Want to go check how much what you described overlaps with the religious electorate?

    I’ll wait here.
