"(R)ecent research has shown Christian nationalist views are a strong predictor of support for more authoritarian means of social control, including autocratic leadership, capital punishment, torture, any-means-necessary policing, “good guys with guns,” and generally harsher sentencing for criminal offenders (Davis 2018; Gorski and Perry 2022; Perry and Grubbs 2024)."

I don’t often celebrate a death…but in Dobson’s case, I’ll make an exception. This old white man, and others like him, are/were a scourge, filled with righteous hate for all those who aren’t exactly like them.

Wayne Besen, the director of Truth Wins Out - an LBGTQ+ advocacy organisation that often sparred with Dobson - said in a statement that he "used faith as a cudgel to bludgeon vulnerable communities, spread disinformation and inject toxic bigotry into the bloodstream of American culture". #evangelicals #christians #ConservativeChristianity #religion #hate #bigotry #LGBTQIA #LGBTQ

Is #empathy a #sin? Some #conservative #Christians argue it can be

Empathy is usually regarded as a #virtue, a key to human #decency & #kindness. And yet, with increasing momentum, voices on the #ChristianRight are preaching that it has become a #vice.

AP News · Conservative Christians argue empathy can be a sinSome voices on the Christian right are arguing the virtue of empathy has become a vice. Those Christians claim empathy can manipulate people into accepting what they see as sins, like abortion access and LGBTQ+ rights. Conservative evangelicals Allie Beth Stuckey and Joe Rigney have written books within the past year criticizing certain forms of empathy. Stuckey's and Rigney's views have gained traction among President Donald Trump’s Christian base as his Republican administration enacts hard-line policies. Progressive Christian leaders emphasize empathy is central to Jesus' teachings, countering claims it's harmful or sinful.

Speaking of that fine, wholesome, inclusive, kind, and compassionate #Christian love we keep hearing about (but oddly never see).

Dobson's legacy lives on, sadly.

So ist es auch nach meiner Einschätzung, @HansZauner : Kein #System kann sich aus sich selbst heraus begründen, das säkulare Leben keine überindividuell verbindliche Antwort auf die #Anthropodizee formulieren.

Wer dies einmal verstanden hat, versteht die auch demografische Macht der #Religion. #Systemtheorie #Demografie

Natur des Glaubens · Mehr oder weniger Kinder in die Welt setzen? Anthropodizee, Systemtheorie & ReligionsdemografieKein System kann sich aus sich selbst heraus begründen. Das gilt auch für das menschliche Leben. Daher sei der Antinatalismus – die Ablehnung weiterer Geburten von Menschen – geboten. Dies zumindest behauptete etwa Karim Akerma …

#PeteHegseth is the Secretary of Defense of Trump's government.
His nomination grew so much concern, mainly because of his excessive bigotry, that 3 Rep. Senators voted against him, compelling vice-minion #JDVance to put his voice, counting double, on the scale
This was only the 2nd time in US history this happened (after 217 Betty Davos' nomination as Education Secretary).

He is such a proud and dedicated bigot that since his nomination, he introduced a monthly prayer at...the #pentagon.

He makes no secret about his strong ties, both political and spiritual with Doug Wilson, a fanatic Christian Evangelist that controls 150 churches around the world.
Wilson is homophobic.
Wilson is against women's vote.
Wilson view of the place of women is being submitted to their husbands.
For Wilson and his followers, women are just vessels to produce babies.
Wilson is for "a kind of segregation" and of course believes that only a few slave-owners were bad people.

Wilson is the backdoor of fascist Christians in this Maga government, not that there was a lack of such people in Trump's administration, but he says it so loud and clear that the words Hegseth's BFF pronounces in this segment, calmly, in a jaunty way, almost sound like evidences

I was sent this and asked what my opinion is on it. Just a little casual watch, so I decided if I’m going to suffer through this, I’m going to do it while drawing and sharing it with the internet.
