Because… the Dems want to balance the budget? Provide health care to sick people? Resolve inequality to at least some degree to lift up the poor? Extend equals rights to minorities and gays instead of running some kind of cultural pogrom against them?
Geez, it is as if the Bible beaters have turned 3/4ths of the way into the klan. But then again, why expect consistency out of people who think talking snakes and faith healing are real?
That’s just a cover for enticing as many non-white people illegally as possible into the US so they can vote for y’allz. Us (sorry, I keep having to remind myself that we’re globalists now). Didn’t you get the newsletter ? Tell me you at least got the reparations check. And I trust you’re diligently working on the white genocide, as agreed ?
Wonderful. Would make a good appendix to the book How Can I Help? by Ram Dass and Paul Gorman.
I don’t think you understand the quote. As an atheist, you’re cold. You’re not getting spit out,
If Jesus popped up tomorrow, Trump would take to Twitter and brand him an anti-Semitic, America-hating commie. Undoubtedly, he would demand that Jesus produce his birth certificate, belittle him for having died on the cross (he only likes saviors that don’t get crucified), and demand that he go back where he came from.
Don’t scream about, don’t think aloud
Turn your head now, baby, just spit me out
Don’t worry about, don’t speak of doubt
Turn your head now, baby, just spit me out
December, Collective Soul
And Jesus would. I mean, he did, didn’t he ? 
Very true.
In some respects, the cult of Trump is simply another type of religiosity. They aren’t uncomfortable interpreting his words to match what they want him to mean—no matter how much of a stretch it is—because they’ve been doing this with the Bible all if their lives. When a charismatic authority figure tells them things that sound too good to be true, they don’t question it because the church discourages skepticism and critical thinking.
A part of me also wonders whether they have so deeply rationalized the notion that “God works through flawed men” that they see Trump’s flaws as extra proof that he’s the chosen one. Maybe the kind of cognitive bias that causes people to think ugly clothes that cost a lot are objectively better than nice looking but cheap clothes. Trump “costs” a lot in terms of cognitive dissonance, so his supporters have little choice but to tell themselves that vileness is a necessary evil.
Piffle. This quote comes from Jerry Lee Lewis.
So don’t go to those places online or watch the news.* You’ll feel liberated.
*As an alternative, watch the news with the A/C turned off.
“We like him being unpredictable. It scares our enemies.”
Do you like your friends being mercurial and unpredictable too? Because we have friends in this world who despise Trump and what he’s doing to our relationships with their countries.
“He says what he thinks and I admire that”
Because you’re a moron who thinks that powerful people can say whatever they want without consequences and you wish you could do that.
“He’s draining the swamp”
No change in the water level. But he’s filling it with the criminal and the corrupt and you’re somehow happy about that, despite your earlier protestations.
“He’s getting things done”
Well, NO, not really. He’s fucking up a lot of things big time and doing precious little that matters in the long term.
“He stopped a war with North Korea”
There was never going to be a war with North Korea unless he started it.
“He’s rebuilt the military”
He’s done fuck all nothing to improve the military.
“The Military loves Trump”
No, according to annual Military Times polls, Trump has never had even 50% support from the US Military.
“He’s spending billions fighting drug trafficking and rebuilt our Customs and Coast Guard to stop the drugs. Obama never did that.”
Bullshit. He not only hasn’t spent an additional dime on them, he’s cut their funding. Under Obama, they did a lot of work, you just won’t give any credit to the black man.
Didn’t the current evangelical movement arise as a direct result of school integration in the South? As soon as African-Americans were sent to public schools the Christian private school movement sprung up so that white “Christians” wouldn’t have to sit next to persons of color.
When you remember the movement’s roots their current racist iteration makes sense. It has never been about what is more generally recognized as Christian values.
And a lot of Home Schooling is done so as to prevent kids from being “indoctrinated” into political correctness, science and liberal thought. 
Then they meet the real world…
Damn, but I’d love to see a long term study on those kids as they go from homeschooling to real world jobs, move into big cities, etc.
theres a whole webcomic about a girl that was homeschooled like described above www.dumbingofage.com its been going for a while and youll have to start a tthe very beginning to understand it
Without the KKK, Neo Nazis, Flat Earthers, Anti-vaxers, Moon landing deniers, Holocaust deniers, and the entire “make the world safe for billionaires cause I’m gonna be one someday” crowd the Republican party is a splinter group. Theirs is the part of inclusion.
Of course, Democrats still eat their young, so, no problem.
