National Association of Christian Lawmakers accuse "Satanists and Atheists" for voting in their poll

It’s hardly an original thought. I’m probably like whoring by posting it so high in the thread. But apropos:

No way.
My American Jesus has an automatic weapon in one hand and a hand gun in the other.

Have evangelicals ever taken responsibility for anything? Feels like the entire mentality is blame someone/something else.

“Satanists and Atheists” is correct. Here’s why:
Christian Lawmakers and I both voted in yesterday’s poll. And I am the “Atheist”.

Yep, absolutely. The persecution complex is very strong with them. Mind you, they have to go back to the Roman Empire to justify it… (and even that misrepresents the actual history)

It is literally a precept of their faith that they are not responsible for anything other than a single decision to “accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior”

No matter what harm they’ve done in their lives, before or after said decision, they’re off the hook for it.

In other words, your opponents aren’t supposed to have access to the ballot box.

The biggest load of bullshit shoveled in modern propaganda is the tale of the oppressed Christian. Yeah, can’t force others to participate in devolved insanity, madness and denial. How very oppressing. All while believing they have any moral high ground left what-so-ever after adding Trump to the cult.

Impostor! That is not the one true weapon. The real American Jesus would surely be using his god-manifested AR15 with bump-stock.

Don’t forget flipping over the moneylenders’ tables and driving them out with a whip.

“Do you believe America would be better off if more Christians served in elected office?”

FFS! They’ve already got Trump on their side. He’s the most Christian! What more do they want?

Christianity has always been an explicitly political force. The catholic church used to rule Europe.

  1. We are a secular nation of people guaranteed freedom of religion. While proselytizing in itself is wrong, certain Christians wish to dictate to all what to believe and how to live. And they want this to be a matter of law. I see no room for God in that scenario. Such people have no need for God. In addition, God does not need marketers, which are truly in a class by themselves - one which is neither spiritual nor godly.
  2. I always find it curious when people say, “Well, they should act like Christians!” As though a Christian is a good sort of person to be. Know this: People act exactly as who they are, and spouting beliefs is meaningless when one is demonstrating them to the contrary.
