I'm very atheist. Your 3rd paragraph is exactly what Christianity represents to me, and has for a while. The only thing you left out was sanctioned pedophelia for a few hundred years.
The bad FAR outweighs the good, and has for a very very long time.
Religion is responsible for almost all the horrific things that have ever happened to mankind.
To both your and polds’ points, below is an exert from the constitution of a Doug Wilson Christian Nationalist church plant in the se US. I follow this closer than I should bc a long time family friend’s daughter is married to the guy doing the plant and he will eventually become the lead pastor.
This language is in regards to how they discipline a grown member of their church who has committed an offense that they themselves judge and jury.
“It is therefore with grief that the Elders of King’s Kirk Presbyterian Church unanimously pronounce that [ ] is hereby expelled from King’s Kirk. We declare this day, by the authority of the Lord Jesus Christ, the head of the church, that [ ] is excommunicated in accordance with the requirements of Scripture, and is put outside the body of Christ. [He/she] is delivered to the domain of Satan, and is hereafter to be deemed an unbeliever, thus excluding [him/her] from any hope of salvation, unless [he/she] humbly repents and is converted. It is our prayer that
God will use this action we have taken today to glorify His name, and if He is willing, to restore [ ] to fellowship with us.”
Note they not only kick that person out of the church but also elevate themselves to God and exclude that person from eternal salvation.
Their aim is to take over the government. It’s different from Kenneth Copeland or Joel Olsteen. Those types just want your money. These CN guys want to dominate you.
I still think we will never get there bc the Tech bros are on the same path and seem to have the inside track. Not sure thats a better outcome.
