Christian nationalist Doug Wilson wants tax rates to be determined by the Bible: "I would like Divine Law to have something to say about the marginal tax rates ... because when the state claims a tithe, they're claiming equality with God."
This is one of the corner stones of why Christian countries aren’t patriarchies
So why are christians trying to repeal women’s right to vote in the United States?
Christianity, like all the abrahamic faiths, is a misogynistic death cult. Are there some good verses in the bible? Sure. But please stop ignoring the bad ones.
I do agree, christianity is patriarchy historically. I think the fights fought after Luthers writings were basically liberating from that core christianity. I recall church went too greedy with payments to be freed from sins (even as murderer, incl future crimes) and double fighting popes, people gatherd all this must be bullshit. Probably also too high taxes.
Due to now accepting non believers and believers of different christianity strains, the “we vs them” was watered down few hundred years ago.
Islam is later in this process and has different circumstances like oil money financing the whole hate n terror.
I never claimed they aren’t trying to influence politics, but they aren’t demanding the church should have full control either.
Religious people are delusional, bu luckily the Bible does have some limitations to the influence of their religious delusions, that unfortunately Islam doesn’t have. And you can see the difference very clearly in that regard between Christian and Muslim countries. Where AFAIK Turkey is the only somewhat secular Muslim dominated country thanks to Atatürk.

Yes, many are doing exactly that.

The bible frequently contradicts itself. Everyone has their own headcanon. There is no limit when you tolerate magical thinking.

I can agree that muslim countries are generally worse than christian ones.
But a christian nation has the potential to be just as horrific as any muslim one. The foundation is “submit completely to violent authority.”
Why are we tolerating ANY death cults? Why are we allowing grown adults to make shit up to everyone’s detriment?
