I watched an undercover video of a church service once and they essentially replaced the 10 commandments with 10 Christian nationalism statements.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

The Christans yearn for false idols
Not the antichrist you're the antichrist
Florida’s Bishop Kelvin Cobaris, the former president of the African American Council of Christian Clergy, said, “I want to tell every African American in here ‘Don’t be a afraid to lose your Black card…vote to defend religious freedom, vote to defend Israel!’” Pastor Sam Rodriguez, president of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference, said the enemy is “trying to kill our children in the classroom.”
Idiots.
I think at this point we can stop calling it Christianity because it obviously has nothing to do with a messiah religious character from the middle east.
Evangelicapitalism?
Come now, modern day American Christianity has nothing in common with the Roman Catholic faith that spawned the Reformation in 1519, where the pope and his cardinals openly sold penances and salvation for money.
What a bunch of sociopaths.
We need to launch a new fricking crusade against these antichrist worshippers
Paula White-Cain, the NAR-affiliated Florida pastor who served as Trump’s lead spiritual adviser during his presidency, warned her followers that Christians who didn’t support Trump will “have to stand accountable before God one day.”
Those will be the ones ascending to heaven according to your bible, Paula, while you stand with the literal Anti-Christ you fucking grifter.
Isn't this idolatry? Your jealous god is gonna be, uh, jealous.
If god were real he'd be real pissed right now
There are a significant number of American Christians that have worked Trump into the religion.
Many prophesied his election victory, fueled insanity when this did not happen, culminating in... basically he is a kind of messiah, not literally Jesus, but doing his work, and he must do it before Jesus comes back.
If religion was real Trump would be the antichrist their bible warned them about.
As an ex Christian raised in a fundamentalist household who is now Atheist...
Fucking YUP!
He fits extremely well into the common rapture/antichrist narrative that I was raised in.
Religious people that vote republican are 100% hypocrites. Even you mom.
Especially your mom!
I'm glad my mom isn't some hyper-religious hypocrite. She's just your average low-information overly-proud bigot that couldn't be bothered to vote until a black man had the audacity to be president.
Problem here is that you seem to think (or assume others think) that religion is something other than a means to con dupes into giving up power and money. It’s pliable as fuck. It means nothing; it’s merely a means to an end.
