Iβm watching in real time as the Democratic Party allows a religious takeover of what should be a secular party. Fuck them. They can be religious without a lot of people like me.

that isnβt happening though
Weirdo alert
You are correct and I'm with you, fuck Christians
Its absolutely not a take over
I don't know about your town or what you're observing, but I think you're incorrect/ahistoric. Religion has always played a strong role (Kennedy, Carter, Obama, Biden), but these days Evangelicals are almost all Republicans. (I'm atheist & Dem for many decades)
Questions 1) Do you think it is a NEW thing that the majority of Democratic Party leaders are people of faith? 2) Are you saying "people like" you should not vote for AOC, Jasmine Crockett, Ralphael Warnock, Andy Beshear, Illhan Omar, Josh Shapiro, or Pete Buttigieg if he runs for anything else?
Oh for fuckβs sake. One guy mentioning prayer isnβt βa religious takeoverβ. Besides that, like it or not itβs a Christian-majority country. If you donβt want Christians in your party, then you donβt want to win elections or govern. And if thatβs the case, the Green Party is that-a-way.
As if Iβm talking about one guy. You can scream all you want and cry about what I said, but the minority Dem House leader told the country that God was in charge. And a little comprehension before you go off would be great since I never said I donβt want Christians in my party.
And trump said he is the chosen one⦠Remember?
And no, itβs not a Christian majority country. The majority of Americans are not Christian. This isnβt 1980.
The US is absolutely a majority Christian. www.pewresearch.org/religious-la...
Wonder if they polled Muslim and Jewish populations as equally as they did Christianβs.
The way people are rabidly flocking to comment is proof how fanatical Christianβs are lol.
as of March 2024, 68% of Americans identified with some Christian denomination.
Factually incorrect. You sound like a religious fundamentalist, relying on belief alone.
I'm a Christian. I'm very left of center on just about every issue. Do you really not want me in your party?
Is this Roy Cooper? I agree, but. If someone is going to fight fascists, then Iβm ok. Weβre partly in this mess because weβve allowed the GOP the exclusive right to command what is βreligiousβ. If we could articulate the ethical and moral teachings of Jesus in the context modern society, it would be
a good thing and it might actually get rid of the GOP and their hate and dismantling of the social welfare safety net. I mean, for fuck sakes, I think you could argue Jesus would advocate for communism.
intolerance goes nowhere.
"Christian" != "Intolerant". The loudest ones sure are, but believe it or not, christianity is more than just evangelicals.
When will the βmore than evangelicalsβ start fighting the evangelicals to take back their religion? Bc it kinda looks like theyβre are ok with how itβs going.
the 12 year old rape victim didn't fight back hard enough so it kinda looks like she was ok with it.
OK, a 12 yo rape victim is in no way comparable to different sects of Christianity, I wish yall were better at making comparisons.
JFC that was awful
Tell that to your faith.
this is the opinion of a 13 year old
Sorry. As an atheist, I donβt like your unconstitutional attitude. I donβt believe in a religious test to hold public office. I just donβt want a lawmaker using their religion as the reason behind every bill they support. Weβre fighting fascism. This is a waste of anger. A loser philosophy.
What
Are you five years old? or are you a recent transplant to the US with no knowledge of Cooper or politics at all? Why are you this ignorant?
found the white supremacist
How is this in any way white supremacist? If anything religion (SPECIFICALLY white Christian nationalism) has been used for centuries to colonize and propagandize POC.
Cutting out religion, and specifically Christianity, means cutting out Black people, the most reliably churchgoing and religious demographic in the US.
starting to sound like you don't really know anything about the Black population of the Carolinas
OMFG do you think Black and Indigenous Americans were christian prior to colonization???? JFC.
I mean, how else could it happen in 6000 years?
are we talking about BIPOC in the context of Cooper's run for Senate or BIPOC prior to colonization
No youβre not.
