Fascism is about feelings.

Actual sincere question - where are all the kids ICE has been saving or whatever?

If God's plan to defeat the Literal Christian Devil involves rapist, pedo, sextrafficing fascists as the good guys, then maybe God made a bad plan.

Or maybe they're just lying.
Who's to say.

It's extra depressing knowing that churches won't talk about Christian Nationalism because leadership thinks if they do, it will hurt the feelings of wealthy donors.

Jesus went out of his way to hurt wealthy people's feelings. These people don't seem to care about Jesus so why bother bring it up.

Growing up, I always heard that government overreach, deploying military on US soil, infringing on states rights, removing parents from children, disappearing legal residence, false flag events, increases surveillance state etc. was the realm of the "Demoncrats." Apparently not 🫠

christiannationalism is a sin.

The great Evangelical bait and switch:
Before you're in: "You are loved! You are free!"
After you're in: "You are now bound to this arbitrary list of spiritual and social rules. Follow, or else."

Jesus: "you are salt of the earth."

'Merica: "assault the earth? Ok!"

Now that we have a DOGE department, I'd like to see an ERMAHGERD agency and federal bureau of GRUMPY CAT.

"Go make disciples," is not the same as, "go make it illegal for people to believe differently than you."

I think it's time to have another Protestant-esq Reformation or something. I mean it's been like 500 years since the last one.

People quickly change tune when they realize DEI efforts also protect and benefit women, pregnancy, seniors, those with disabilities, veterans, all ethnicities and yes, white people.

Ain't America great? As of today, if you are a female war veteran who lost a limb in combat and happen to be of Irish descent I can totally discriminate against you for each of those attributes and I'm off the hook.

✨Bring me those who think deeply, love lavishly, and don't have to tear others down in order to build themselves up.

Also please bring me neurospicy former PKs, who were homeschooled and/or went to AWANA. 🙏🏼

Please and thank you. 😊

Dear Bluesky
✨Bring me voices of radical inclusion, bring me people more like Bishop Budde.
✨Bring me creative, caring weirdos.
✨Bring me spiritual siblings who realized the faith they knew wasn't matching up with the faith they belonged to...

My former pastor gave a sermon and said that part in Matthew where Jesus is like, "if someone slaps you, turn the other cheek," etc. he was just being sarcastic.

And folks wonder why we are where we are. 🤦🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

I guess it's time for my trad wife era.

During Trump's first campaign, I told my pastor/boss that this "patriot," "maga," Christian Nationalism thing was a spiritual issue for the church. We needed to address it. He told me I was wrong and to drop the topic.
I'll never forget that conversation.

If you've ever heard a sermon on "the sin of empathy," you know exactly why we are where we are.

You'd think the folks gobbling up Left Behind books back in the day would be able to recognize a Nicolae Carpathia type. Guess not! 🤷🏼‍♀️

It's so weird being taught to look for signs of Satan in everything and then get told that I'm wrong when I see actual evil. If the outline of those clouds in the Lion King actually do say S€X then why are you cool with Elon's Yahtzee salute?

For anyone just now waking up to the reality of Christian Nationalism taking over, please know that you are not alone. The Christian Nationalism creep has been going on for a long time and a lot of good people have been fighting it for even longer. Welcome to the party.

Disagree.
It will fail and its failure will be blamed on "globalist" /antifa/communist/democrat/woke meddling - further entrenching coin owners and fans in the Trump hole.
It's a tale as old as time my dude.

Ok Bluesky help me out - please bring me folks who are:
-Feeling out of place in their faith
-Very slow but still like running
-Com theory nerds
-Aficionados of the late 90s Tooth & Nail catalog
-Neurospicy/AuDHD
-Genderqueer/ally
-Parenting the best they can
-Still holding on to hope

Apparently the whole "avoid the appearance of evil," thing doesn't pertain to seig heils.
Good to know 🙃

Sometimes anti-social.
Always anti-fascist.
