You mean, the dude who has functionally NOTHING to do with American Christianity?  The dude who, if he appeared today, would be condemned as a dark-skinned middle eastern heretic libtard commie or somesuch by American Christianity?

Or do you mean THIS Jesus, who never existed until relatively recent revisionism?

 

The Jesus in the Bible. The middle eastern Jew who brought a radically new way of relationship with God and each other no matter what your creed or color. There are likely hundreds of thousands of people in this very country who believe in that entity. If you remove your confirmation bias glasses once in a while, you actually can find people here that believe in the original non Americanized version.

Oh, I know those people exist.  We had 16 old friends from church at our house last night.  All of them think that way.

We are vastly outnumbered, and have minimal political and social power.  The vastly dominant strain of American Christianity is what I pointed out.

MAGA evangelical leader behind get-out-the-vote nonprofit charged with child porn

Another one: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/crime/maga-evangelical-jason-yates-charges-b2642048.html

Quote

The former leader of a conservative Christian voter outreach program favoring Donald Trump in the 2024 election has been arrested for possessing child sexual abuse materials.

Jason Yates, 55, the former CEO of evangelical nonprofit My Faith Votes, was charged in Minnesota with eight counts of possessing child sexual abuse materials.

According to court documents reviewed by Religion News Service, a relative of Yates' accidentally discovered a hard drive containing more than 100 sexually explicit images and videos of children under 14-years-old, as well as eight pieces of media involving children between the ages of five and 7-years-old. They gave it to another relative, who then handed the drive over to law enforcement.

Yates met with investigators on September 13, during which time he allegedly refused to give the investigators a password to access the encrypted files on the drive. He also revealed that he had a prior expunged conviction related to child sex abuse materials, Religion News Service added.

In early August, Yates stepped down from his CEO position at My Faith Votes and was replaced by Chris Sadler.

Yates was charged on Monday with eight counts of possessing child sexual abuse material.

“In early August 2024, the My Faith Votes board of directors separated Jason Yates from My Faith Votes and board member Chris Sadler assumed the position of Acting CEO,” a My Faith Votes spokesperson told RNS.

“Over the last three months Chris has been working with the dedicated My Faith Votes team to encourage millions of Christians to vote, pray and think biblically about this election in America,”

A few weeks before the hard drive was discovered, Yates published an op-ed in the Washington Times encouraging Christians to push back against "sexually deviant" messaging toward children. The "deviant" messaging he was describing involved LGBTQ issues.

“This infernal programming is being downloaded into our children, and it becomes far easier when it finds no resistance in our public square — when it is allowed to fill the void left by the absence of our faith,” Yates wrote in his op-ed.

The messaging was on par with what can be found on My Faith Votes, which blames Christians for being complacent in the face of "secular progressives."

“As a result of apathy at the voting booth and in public life, we’ve suffered devastating moral decay, declining religious freedom, immoral national debt, and the erosion of traditional family values,” the group's website reads.

According to Wired, My Faith Votes is part of a network of nonprofit groups trying to rally support for former President Donald Trump in the 2024 election.

Before stepping down from the group, Yates gave an interview explaining why he thought it was important for Christians to not only vote, but to vote in accordance with conservative Biblical beliefs. He asked Christians to sign a pledge to vote in every election.

“As a Christian, I commit to voting for candidates and policies that uphold the sanctity of life, the traditional family, religious liberty, and justice for all,” the pledge reads. “I believe that my biblical values should guide my choices at the ballot box, ensuring that our nation’s laws and leaders reflect God’s truth and righteousness.”

Millions of people. Most of the practicing members of Christ’s church and even more of the non-Christian Christ admirers (ie humanist types and virtually all Muslims) are followers, believers, or at least admirers of a Jesus Christ that is the prince of peace and the Jesus of the Beatitudes, not the Jesus who validates their pride and prejudice. 
Because they are so loud and insistent we tend to forget that the angrier and more political flavors of nondenominational fundamentalist Christian Americans aren’t very representative of any other Christians. They are a distinct and pretty divergent minority.

I don’t think they are dominant. I think they are simply loud and freely mix the belongings of God with those of Caesar. I don’t think the rest presume to know the will of God or have leave  to be so bold. 
 

@Kyrie Eleison what do you think.

I’ll save my thoughts on that for another thread, but the bottom line is that I don’t think the result of the election Tuesday says much of anything about Christians and their understanding of Christ. It says a lot about cognitive dissonance, low calorie media diets, and the primacy of personal experience over information.

Yeah.  I've come around to the conclusion that Jesus was an asshole.

I fucking hate people who just offer accurate warning after accurate warning about how bad shit is going to be, but just can't come up with an actual solution that avoids that outcome.

Wait...I mean.....godfuckingdammit.  

At least that Jesus fella could walk on water and whatnot, and come back from the dead.  So, big points to Jesus.

His main command to us (other than putting God first -- can you even imagine?) is to love our neighbors as ourselves. I'm going to focus as much as I can on that for a while and let God take care of the rest. I've been praying a lot and trying to help my young adult children deal with the new reality of loss of bodily autonomy and likely environmental collapse, things that are weighing heavily on them. Helping those in close proximity seems to be the way to cope and ease suffering.

What the fuck

Quote

Rachel, now a 22-year-old college student, is trying to forget Jessup, a man she now calls “John” instead of “Dad.” Rachel is Jessup’s youngest biological daughter and is the woman Jessup is accused of sexually assaulting during a drunken night in Las Vegas in late January.

And of course the perp is a county commissioner in Indiana

Quote

During the recent general election — despite reports of the sexual assault — the community voted for Jessup to become a member of the Hancock County Council starting Jan. 1, 2025.

Consider who that twitter account belongs to. Also, the answer to her question is Ryan Walters, the ultra MAGA superintendent of education in Oklahoma. The guy who wants to use state funds to buy bibles for schools and mandated that schools show a video of him praying for Trump to all students. So, just your run of the mill Christian nationalist. That’s who is in charge of vetting teachers in Oklahoma!

Jailhouse justice with pretty much everyone with the “I hope nothing bad happens in jail” 😉

Then “Oh no, how did that happen?” 🤔

This story about the young girl made me nauseous and almost nothing makes me nauseous. “Well bye” gif applies to her murderer more than ever.
