And for the details on when and how American Christianity became so political, I recommend starting with “The Scandal of the Evangelical Mind” then checking out the Kingdom, the Power & the Glory, Wild Faith by @swordsjew.bsky.social, Jesus & John Wayne by @kkdumez.bsky.social and more.

He is also very good at explaining things, has multiple EV charging ports rigged up, and was well known for monitoring our energy use and swapping out all our bulbs for CFLs as early as the 80s!
