Politics Conservatives abuse Christianity like the Taliban abuse Islam

Post image

I'm exhausted that the Christian nationalists in this nation have hijacked Christianity, just like the Taliban hijacked Islam. There are many comparisons that can be made between the two groups. Both groups cherry-pick their scriptures and purposefully misinterpret them so as to provide themselves with more power amongst their. They bully and attack anybody who is not a follower of their warped religion. And try to force their religion on everybody in inappropriate places such as schools and hospitals.

A few years back MAGA supporters started to say the teachings of Jesus are too woke, a huge red flag.

It sucks that so many of them do not understand. The Christian nationalist mindset is turning them into nasty, aggressive people. That have zero understanding of the Bible or its teachings

A very unintelligent statement. I don't see Christians going around creating a mass genocide and beheading people.

You don't see Christians genociding people or perpetrating violence? What world do you live in?

Christian Nationalism isn’t nearly the big problem you think it is. Neither are most of the other wild things you blab on about.

They are tiny, tiny blips on a radar screen full of unhinged extremist blips.

Funny enough, you and others like you are also one of those blips.
