Exactly these white evangelical Christians are the very same false prophets Jesus warned you would use his name to commit evil the world has never seen. If you call yourself a Christian and don’t see that, then you most likely are False prophets as-well.
Understanding the difference between "religious people" and White Evangelical Nationalism is knowing:

They didn't want more religious freedom or a more religious country; they wanted their own personal pliable, obedient cult followers.

I sincerely don't think I share a religion with people like this.

I know it's a tad early but I know those bitches with the buckets will be out soon. Don't gove them a penny. The volunteers may not know but the salvation army is no ally and actively combative and harmful to many queer minorities especially during the holiday season

Okay, no, I’ll finish the thought. If your industry relies on theft to survive, then your industry does not deserve to survive.

Archaeologist here. For 99.5% of human history (ca 300-400,000 years), we were peaceful (no war). There was conflict and smaller scale violence, but countless studies on the 119 known modern hunter gatherer groups show cooperation, negotiation, and peace instead of conflict. Please read books.
Revenge/physical combat was how people settled things for literally millions of years, it's normal human behavior, we're wolves not sheep, the government project trying to social engineer us and domesticate us into sheep has been unsuccessful

The Christian right for decades has fear-mongered that federal agents (under Dem presidents) would "criminalize" Christianity and literally prevent them from worshipping.

Now that Trump's stormtroopers are doing it ... crickets
Here’s a story for every national news outlet:

In N.C., churchgoers are literally running into the woods as federal agents descend on the property.

“Inside the church, women and children sobbed as they wondered whether their loved ones had been taken.”

"Cis women having male levels of testosterone" is another big giveaway about what this is. What is a "male" level of testosterone and how can a cis female have it naturally occurring in their cis female body if its specific to men? Is there a male level of height?
Its telling where the IOC will let claims of scientific rationality be applied as a cover for their bigotry and where it wont. I'm assuming they wont be barring athletes for having the advantage of being too tall or too much lung capacity?

The reason Mike Johnson is so good at ignoring the terrible things happening in front of him (sex abuse, ICE raids, etc.) is because he's a Southern Baptist, and Southern Baptists are very good at ignoring horrific things. It's the natural progression of a group founded by enslavers
Read the history of the Southern Baptist Convention's cover-up of its massive sex abuse scandal for the playbook for Johnson.

am I tired, hot, and brain fogged because of my meds, a new illness, the stress of the world news, the stress of traveling soon, something I ate, or because it's 90 F highs in November but still dark at 4:30

THIS. Not just including but honoring queerness in our churches. And feeling very loved to hear the aromanticism and asexuality inclusion in that! That's not something that gets said in these spaces, and Billie and Tamice do it so well, on this and every topic they cover.

It’s a scam and a pretty common one.

Churches get multiple calls like this a week. The person answering the phone is doesn’t have access to funds to give. They aren’t charge of the food shelf. They aren’t the pastor. They might not even be a member of the church.

“Hear the voice of God in this: you will not remain the collateral damage of someone else’s agenda or performances of misguided righteousness or power-seeking games or platform building.”

truly wild how heads of state will start wars, displace people & will then complain about immigrants — going so far as to rile their followers up to hate crime the very refugees their wars created.

Does it have Max Lucado books and a Thomas Kincade painting? Of course. Does it also have Bird by Bird and A Year of Biblical Womanhood? You bet your UWiF it does.
gotta respect the old mainline church library. A lost art. A hidden gem. Hasn’t been used in 40 years. “More than a carpenter” right next to Johnson’s “she who is”

Right, the answer isn't to abandon the party to these weasels.

The answer is to flood the party with people who will take it over and transform it.
Hey, a lot of people are talking about changing affiliation from Democratic to Independent.

Let me tell you why you shouldn’t do that in Colorado.

One of the main ways to get a primary challenge candidate on a ballot is to caucus for your party. You need to be registered as a Dem to caucus.

Me, openly aroace: when the bible talks about love, Jesus emphasized platonic love and community more than marriage or sex

Rando: 1 Corinthians 1:6-9 hope that helps

Me: sorry should I just go ✨righteously✨ have sex now
