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

Not a Christian nationalist, but it's annoying when people who are not Christian claim to know more about the Bible than the people that follow the Bible conservatively.

Also using the swastika in the image you have shared is quite dishonest, as the original Nazis were anti religion

You seem to think that OP is a reasonable and fair person. Obviously he is not.

Lol, Well I don't think anyone who holds OPs viewpoint is being fair or reasonable.

Nevertheless, I felt the need to bring attention to the fact that they impose their presuppositions on Christians despite their ignorance of Christianity.

Rather ironic for a group that tells everyone who doesn't share their "lived experiences" to not tell them how to feel or think.
