No but you can be charged for telling your followers to "bring the fight" to Washington to "Stop the Steal".
Actually racist evangelicals get in the way. And 1865 wasn't so bad, end of the Civil War, Juneteenth, almost inarguably the best President we've ever had was in office, until he was murdered of course. By a racist evangelical.
And this folks is why America is so divided. I mean a primo freaking example. Some people simply do not agree that facts, like the words recorded coming out of someone's mouth aren't actually what they said or if they do agree that that is what they said then they think the person saying them are in no way responsible for what they said. And by the way this only applies to President Trump, who is someone who is a straight shooter, pulls no punches but also, you cannot take what he says literally.
Well racist yes. I actually don't think he was an evangelist, unless you can show me a source I have overlooked.
He was raised Christian, and his sister seemed to point towards him being Catholic in her book if I recall correctly. It's been awhile though so I'm not 100%
Ok. I am pretty sure that label does not apply to him. Traitor, murderer, assassin all work just fine. : )
Nope.
But I wanted to relate my point about white evangelism causing so much of this racial strife to the assassination of Abraham Lincoln, ya know, the guy who um, not so quietly told the slave owners to go **** themselves.
The point, jackass, is that it has been since 1865 that "the South" governed anything. Jesus you idiots love to generalize entire demographics. You know, like racists do?
I mean I've spent my whole life in North Carolina and Kentucky so I can say that most white people I've come across (which is a bunch, including my own family and community) are very Christian people, and while most aren't openly racist, they still do treat people of color differently. Then there's the religious aspect, pretty much every Christian believes this country needs to be run according to the Holy Bible. That's why abortion is even still a talking point, or why it took us until 2015 for gay people to marry.
Well certainly, there were evangelical who insisted slavery was endorsed in the Bible so they share a great deal of blame for that awful institution. Same with Jim Crow. Is it really a surprise that a lot fo them lined up behind Trump. There is a contingent of religious whores among so-called deeply religious people and has always been.
How different our experiences are. As someone who has spent my whole life in North Carolina, the majority of the white people I have come across (which is a lot including my family and my community) are not very religious at all. Certainly not the pushy kind. And they're not racist, openly or not and outside of a few occasions, I see people treated equally and fairly. Perhaps you've spent your time in the hills or in the boondocks, IDK. Or maybe you just don't socialize because of your own intolerance? Willfully or unintentionally. My brother and his family are practicing Christians. And in no way do they think we should run our country under God's law. That's some fear mongering bullshit there. Don't worry buddy, Jesus isn't going to take your abortions away from you.
Yup. I just wanted to throw Booth in there so I reached a bit. But yeah, it's a tangled mess of racism, religious fanaticism, nationalism and for many an over inflated sense of self worth. So many feel that they are on a literal mission from God and Trump like many, many before him have played into that.
Then your family is the exception and I truly wish I could say the same. Every one of the Christians I've known is the pushy, everyone should follow our beliefs type. And I see so much of my family in these Trump supporters it's scary.
You should really step away from this thread. You’re showing ignorance on an unprecedented level.
God you have no idea how much I wish I was wrong, or ignorant @Mac9192. I've heard it's comparable to bliss.
Statistically it's almost certain there are black and Hispanic racist Christians. There's racists in every demographic.
Which race does god teach us to hate the most? I ask because I don't know.
Note I have said it's the racist Christians who are the problem. Not Christianity itself. As far as I know, it doesn't. Unless I somehow skipped that part growing up.
Jesus might not. But the evangelical voting bloc with people like Reverend Graham certainly want to. It is great that you have the family experience you described. Most of may friends are either atheists or not religious. But neither you nor I speak for the entire country and you cannot seriously reject the fact that there is a certain group who claim to be religious and who claim that they want nothing more than follow Christ's teachings of love and tolerance but are in reality hate mongers and bigots. Not everyone and maybe not even the majority but they are vocal and they have had a decided effect in the political arena
I’m sorry, I didn’t want to give you more hot flashes and such
I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. But there was no reason to involve racism into the discussion other than to associate Christians with racism. There was no reason to involve "the South" other than to label us southerners as a bunch of bible thumping bigots and bumpkins. So. We can move on.
"But neither you nor I speak for the entire country and you cannot seriously reject the fact that there is a certain group who claim to be religious and who claim that they want nothing more than follow Christ's teachings of love and tolerance but are in reality hate mongers and bigots."
Nothing wrong with Star Wars, however I can't say I'm really a fan. At least not since the travesty that was The Last Jedi.
