Are Evangelical Christians really the right people to be charged with determining US foreign policy ?

What happened to the separation of church & state????
If the Evangelicals followed their bibles, Trump would have been Stoned to death years ago!!! 🤷‍♀️

Oh that is all several years ago before the cult of Trump.

@RodionRomanovitch 🤔...no, I don't think it ever really did
@Harriet03 They don’t want church and state separated, but they’re also hypocrites. These are the same folks who looked the other way when 19 women came forward about Trump’s harassment, and the same ones who ignored his “pussy-grabbing” comment to vote him in [b]anyway[/b].

@Fernie You're correct...Candidates of every party have to say how much gaaard loves America and how god steered them...Openly confessed atheists won't get far.

As a nation, we've never really had to test the principle, until vert recently.

During our slavery past, we were a nation of mostly white, Christians, served by blacks, who had mostly accepted Christianity. There was no conflict and no one really thought twice about a nativity scene in City Hall, because, well, there was a nativity scene at home.

Over the past 4 or so decades, we've become a more diversified nation. Immigrants from China, India, the Middle East, etc. brought their religions along, and for the most part, it is not Christianity.

The Christian Taliban, are now moving to protect their turf, and they're working under the cover of "fuck political correctness", to control Congress, our courts, and the Presidency.

We need to fight back at the ballot box.
@Northwest Many of the blacks who were brought had either practiced tribal religions or were Muslims (Musselmans) and in most of the U.S. as slaves they were forced to convert to Christianity, along with giving up their names, native languages and ties to family members.
