Golly. Look at the Evangelical Christians waking up and pushing back against MAGAtry! Maybe a Christian theocracy

wasn't such a good idea now that it's not going to happen. Afraid of the blowback, are we? if you try an overthrow like that, it kind of has to work or you pay the price.

The good Christians we've always been told about had to have seen what was going on and didn't want to try and stop it. Maybe they started wanting to a little too late. Like more Jesus was good no matter what or who. It didn't work out that way.

My hope is that we win big enough to throw the Christian right out of power and stomp them so far down we never have to fuck with this again. If that hurts "good Christians", so what? It's a fairy tale anyway. Un brainwash yourselves and it won't hurt anymore.

Historians have a term for the Germans who continued to throw their support to Hitler and the Nazi Party even they disagreed with many of their policies.

They call them "Nazis."

understand that. But I kind of see a lot of them like straight guys in a mob operation. You can't just let it continue. Making omelets you know. But all that means is that they be made to understand separation of church and state is their religious freedom. If they don't give a fuck about their religious freedom, why should I? It's that simple.
