#FarRight#Arizona "#electionIntegrity" zealot, #AustinSmith, has based his entire identity on outrage over nonexistent #electionFraud. He wants a system where the electorate is comprised exclusively of white, #Christian, conservative men, just as #Jesus intended. So you might be surprised to learn that he's just been caught forging hundreds of signatures on his petition to run for state office.
Remember, my #Christian friends, that Americans having sex with intent of producing children kills more fertilized eggs than abortion. For every two children you bring into this world you kill at least one.
Your only ethical choice is to stop breeding. #Jesus loves you.
1979: “[Jerry] Falwell’s loathing of President Carter was white-hot. In particular, he claimed that the government’s decision to deny tax-exempt status to a Christian college, Bob Jones University, on the basis of its racially discriminatory practices set a precedent for secular politicians to shut down churches. Deploying ever-more-apocalyptic rhetoric, Falwell pleaded with Christians to resist.”
A new BOOK in my Visions and Voice series! Celebrating Christian FAITH. If you believe in loving yourself and loving your neighbor, then this book is for you! If you are a hateful person that uses Christianity to persecute other people, you won't like this book. It's about love, peace, comfort and Jesus.
There is something seriously wrong with #Christofascists, like #MikeHuckabee. It's a rot that's based deep in their #Christian genes. It's a lack of #humanity and decency that they justify with performative piety. And it also reflects a sadistic, corrupt worldview in which education is for suckers, and those who got saddled with unpayable loans deserve their suffering.
Most years, amidst the horrors & disappointments of life, Christmas and Easter have provided comfort, hope and challenge: seasons to reflect and recommit, chances to once more receive divine gifts freely and dedicate myself to the good of my neighbours (near and far), to solidarity in suffering, struggle and in seeing those sometimes only momentary glimpses of how another world is possible.
But this Christmas, Christian communities across #Palestine cancelled Christmas celebrations. #Bethlehem was raided by the #IDF (while far worse atrocities were being inflicted on #Gaza just miles away). How then could we sing "O little town of Bethlehem, how still we see you lie"?
And this Easter just passed, nearly all the Christian communities in the holy land, descendents of those who have lived & worshipped there for almost 2,000 years, were refused access to #Jerusalem, while the survivors from the tiny Christian communities in Gaza huddled together–hungry, wounded, scared, grieving–amongst the rubble of their lives and society.
The weapons killing them were supplied by wealthy western nations, whose Christian leaders remain largely silent.
