Maybe. but I’m not really suggesting they are faking it, just twisting scripture to justify their goals. I’ve heard stories that their theological underpinnings are, at the very least, a bit dodgy. But then again, who am I to judge… I’m really not willing to hack someone’s head off for any reason whatsoever, even something I believe passionately in.
To be fair, I think bigots of any sort who employ religious arguments (or any ideology) to justify their shitty behavior are assholes.
