The evangelical Church elected to put itself in a self-induced spiritual coma in Nov 2016 and its life support system is Denial.
"belief in God" is a fantasy: words like Jesus, obedience, love, faith, resurrection, lord are untranslated, harmless, empty.

2/ The mass migrations of the end of the 19th into the 20th led to the second Klan who coined the phrase America First.
Which poem do you identify with? Unguarded Gates written as a response to The Great Colossus.
Maga has been around a long time and refuses to assimilate.

There's a lot being said here. Uniformed troops matter more than school children or concert/movie goers.

I was thinking about how evangelicals have all the pretense of symbols and none of the meaning.

Dorothee Soëlle was my introduction to liberation theology only four years ago now. I started with Choosing Life and followed with Thinking about God, then Gutierrez and Cone.
My book would be this one. It asks what is God's mandate towards sharing with the poor.

Bracey & Emerson found from surveys and interviews that 2/3rds of white evangelicals who attend church regularly DO NOT believe the mandate to care for the widow, orphan, foreigner, poor is relevant to their faith.
The other 1/3rd in the bldg agree with all nonwhite christians that it is a mandate.

Thinking about this book for some reason. We're watching vigilantes with dubious authority break people's body and property, then snatches them to unknown places; and I'm like 'what can I do, it's the State'.

I sometimes get people telling me Bonhoeffer wasn't an evangelical. What does evangelical mean in that case.
This is from a little book called Life Together. 1/3

It's amazing the bad faith in evangelicalism.
Jesus said he did not come to abolish the law, but to make it real. And all the law can be summarized in two commandments, love god and love others.
Hello? How do we know that you love god? By how well you practice justice & mercy with others.

What you have to know about our president (if you don't already) is that his father sat in the pews of the foremost preacher of positive thinking.
Trump's life verses are "aim high and hold on" & "God helps those who help themselves"
He's going extreme hard, and if people bend he'll keep going.

This book is for anyone interested in a historical tour of how the Bible is used* in five Myths America Lives By. Each chapter ends with a African-American response to that myth. In his second edition, the author adds a sixth...the myth of white supremacy. +

The entire expression heard over and over in the old and new testaments is widow, orphan, migrant (or foreigner), and poor; those are God's special people. But you wouldn't know it from listening to MAGA.

Exactly, it's about who has unfettered freedom: of movement: bodily, socially, economically, geographically, politically: Whiteness
My son gave me this book for Christmas in 2019, it's still the best articulation of MAGA in one that I've read.

White America's 'hired gun' entire life is one long lie to conceal his carnal depravity.
Of course he's profiting off every situation, the point is he does what White America wants.

They found 2/3 of evangelicals disagree with the other 1/3 and all nonwhite christians when it comes to the biblical mandate to care for the poor.
Their theology has no reference to it, they worship the Religion of Whiteness.
