A Distinction Without A Difference

 

(Not My Image - Found On InterTubes)

Saw this image a few days ago. Certainly, it captures the current M.O. of many many Christians in the US.  But -  Really -  The oppression and violence we are currently witnessing in the Empire is not solely sourced by MAGA Christians, is it? No.  It's not. Oppression and violence and murder is what comes when Christianity sidles up to power. It's a devastating mix.. Christianity and power.. And these days? Christianity just isn't sidling up to the powerful, it is down on its knees fellating them... There's no need for me to regurgitate all of that 'spiritual' tradition's transgressions.. You can find them yourself by googling "christian atrocities through the centuries" In our own little shit-hole country, Christians have been on the wrong side of history since us whiteys set foot on North America...  The highlights: Genocide of Indigenous Peoples Slavery Civil rights Women's rights Church-sponsored pedophilia Guns over children Electing a manifestly fascist pig to run the country I could go on - but you get the picture...  So - there is no need to qualify the term Christianity by using the modifying word "MAGA."  Straight-up "Christianity" will do..  ~
