@sazemisery @OldCountryDoctor "Evangelicals.... are now coming to the realization... NOW? They KNEW who he was. They said they had to close their eyes to what he was doing. They abandoned everything that they say they believe Christ taught! No excuse. We all make mistakes, but jeez, these were leaders of "Christianity"!!!! They were not USED, they went willingly!
@MidnightRider @sazemisery @OldCountryDoctor Absolutely! And yet the Bible is known to say, "for freedom Christ has set you free. Do not be enslaved again to a yoke of bondage." Maybe they ought to go back and read a bit of what they say they believe.
@homebird @sazemisery @OldCountryDoctor Honestly? If you are not abusing people or hurting children I don't care if you worship Barney. The problem with religion is containment, it has no place in governance. When MTG ignores the separation of church and state to proclaim we are a Christian nation its sickeningly wrong. As I've posted before if Jews said you have to wear a yarmulke, we want it to be law. MTG would drop a litter of puppies, along with 76% of her state.
@MidnightRider @sazemisery @OldCountryDoctor Exactly this. It all depends which "religion" has the power, right? And.. who interprets it! If she was under Sharia Law, she'd protest soon enough. Oh hey, how about a Jehovah's Witness gets to be President and rules that no one in the country can ever have a blood transfusion again? They really do not think these things through!
@homebird @sazemisery @OldCountryDoctor No worries though homebird, her god is the only god, all other people of peace and spiritual pursuits will be sent to a Club Med on the lake of fire. It's nearly 2023 and we have people who live among us who not only believe this, they insist on foisting it. Hey Christians: If God is pissed at one of his children for any reason why does he need your hamster brained intervention? Either he's a deity or not make up your small minds.

What #Republicans want is to use #Religion as a tool to control the US population. They want the American equivalent of Iran or some other countries with them in control. #Politics
@OldCountryDoctor @MidnightRider @sazemisery Exactly this, Doc. It's all about power and control.
@homebird @OldCountryDoctor @sazemisery Yup, I got a newsflash for all of them Trump isn't the first time you have been used like rubes against the rest of us.
@MidnightRider @OldCountryDoctor @sazemisery Right? And this is what comes of following ONE MAN. Whether that be a President, or your local Pastor, and NOT thinking for yourself!
@homebird @OldCountryDoctor @sazemisery I think it's misinterpretation of text written by men with the goal of mass manipulation of simpletons. That doesn't mean I don't pursue spiritual growth, but it does to them. My cousin to me this summer: "why do people hate us" it's because you can't keep your religion to yourself and out of governance.
@MidnightRider @homebird @sazemisery
Separation of church and state is actually a VERY GOOD PRINCIPLE!!! America — What happened?
#Religion #Politics
@OldCountryDoctor I grew grew up in Fredericksburg, VA, where Jefferson drafted the Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom. There was a monument to this on the grounds of the elementary school I went to. At the time, separation of church and state was a revolutionary idea. It truly saddens me that so many people have turned their backs to it.
@KamloopsBob @OldCountryDoctor And what you just typed is why people further south hate on Virginia for being left, this country is mentally ill at this point.
@MidnightRider @homebird @sazemisery
And certainly not the last … #Religion #Politics
@homebird @sazemisery
You're absolutely right. We need to separate self-serving intolerant "Evangelicals" from true Christians who actually follow the teachings of Jesus Christ and love and serve others (President Carter is one of these.)
#Religion #Politics
@OldCountryDoctor @sazemisery Totally with you there! That man is a servant and always has been. He knows the difference between Christianity in practise and being self-serving and power-hungry!
@homebird @sazemisery @OldCountryDoctor
I agree. They used him. Perood.
@homebird @sazemisery @OldCountryDoctor They can buzz off, these are the same people relentlessly trying to repeal free will with their constant insistence we follow their doctrine. That will carry forward to whatever GOP stooge they worship next.
