The hyper-masculinization of Jesus is so on brand for the type of frail male ego that is unwilling to submit to any authority that they might deem as "too feminine". Also the transition from Fundamentalism to cherry-picking and changing biblical narratives to fit their own agendas is… unsurprising

phyllis schlafly SUCKS like how are you going to campaign against the ratification of the equal rights act but go to Harvard & literally have a full political career that you dote on as “a hobby”. Girl you are trying ti take your own rights away

Sooo much of this is just religious propaganda catered to fit anti-communist & racist/ sexist agendas. And then… boom Ronald Reagan harnessing all that built up political & religious force to affix the evangelical vote to the Republican parties agenda… Yikes

Using a hierarchical structure of authority by means of “biblical law” and gender roles just to feed into capitalism is so wretched, like come on. All of those things suck so much, but yes let’s combine them all for the “glory of the grind”. F*ck u Bill Gothard

It’s so weird to me that evangelicals/fundamentalists/ conservatives don’t identify with pacifism… that like most directly aligns with biblical teachings, at least in the New Testament. “Killing a Commie for Jesus Christ” is absolutely wack.

I’m sorry but I hate fundamentalists like just admit you hate critical thinking. Also it was such a jump scare to look up Billy Graham after the description of him, is that not Frankenstein as a human being. He is uggie

I already know this is going to piss me off
