Holy moly - the truth - we need to frame this! Make tiny little post it notes and spread it far and wide ""

Bravo! Well stated! Amen and a holy hallelujah! Love it, but I'm the black sheep of the choir, so that's not a surprise. Preach on!

Amen, brother!

Well said. Thank you. And I want to share your appeal:

"May your God be large enough to unsettle you.

May your faith survive without supremacy.

And may the Spirit remain gloriously uncontrollable".

For Christian Nationalists, this is just too messy, too difficult, too time-consuming. But if we are to be Christians, this is the work. When we are uncomfortable, we open up to let Spirit in.

Exactly. Christian Nationalism wants God tidy, obedient, and pre-approved. The Spirit keeps flipping tables and ruining the aesthetic.

Absolutely bracing and well said. Thank you.

Truth spoken. Christian Nationalism found guilty. (GAVEL BANGS). Case closed & dismissed. Sentence to be decided upon & announced. Let us pray. 🙏

I wish it were that simple.

This article will age well.

History has a brutal sense of humor. It always laughs last, and it’s never kind to theocrats who thought God needed a strongman and a branding strategy.

It doesn't hire Jesus, it pressgangs him.

A shame this really needs to be said.

This one's actually tough to satirize, since the truth itself is pretty absurd! Well done, though, brother.

When reality starts doing the satire for you, all that’s left is pointing and saying, “Yep. That’s actually happening.”

Preach! Good stuff!

🔥 The fiery prophet erupts with truth that cannot be contained. So much of this is quotable, it should be numbered like the scriptures for easy reference.
