I mean I’ve seen some random Instagram stuff where Republicans think that Jesus would not allow immigrants into this country. It truly is another level of delusion at this point
Yeah, the widely practiced “Prosperity Gospel” stuff is like a religious studies PhD designed the most anti-Christian form of Christianity for a thesis, and suddenly people started picking it up and running with it.
First, it is by no means “widely practiced” as it is a niche version of Calvinism that is only common in the USA. The Roman Catholic church does not in any way endorse this view and they are a billion or so of the christian population. Whatever the Vatican does is more or less what is “widely practiced”.
Second as mentioned it is based in Calvinism. If I could slap the shit out of any man in history he’s in my top two.
Ohhh, friendo, there’s about 500 million Christians in Africa that are heavily besieged by Evangelicals pushing this for the political clout. It’s rampant.
Plus, that Joel Osteen guy peddled a version of this hard.

Due to their fondness for finding new suckers, it’s now common in much of the Christian world, especially Mexico, Central America, Korea and some parts of Africa. Also, the source population for the spread of this contagion to the New World, the Protestants in Northern Ireland, have maintained relations with US fundies and many have adopted broadly similar beliefs.

Likewise. It’s amazing how much Calivin’s followers, when in power, ruled just like the Taliban. He was a power-mad bloodless berk full of hatred for life.
Remind me which level of Hell the hypocrites are in? Is it higher or lower than the one reserved for Jesus now?

Don’t forget that Instagram is owned by Meta. They’ve admitted to making people up to get more engagement and rage bait.

More like some semi-literate huckster looking for a fatter income stream than he was getting from his holy-roller flock of rubes.
