Oh I had COMPLETELY forgotten about this! Look, if it makes them happy, fine whatever just leave it out of other people’s lives
I think it’s REALLY important to differentiate the different types of #Christianity something I thought my spouse understood, but apparently didn’t b/c he didn’t grow up very religious & also not in American culture
He’s had a bone to pick w/me for apparently a few years & had to explain to him the genesis of #PhyllisSchlafly as he didn’t watch it nor #TheFamily
He’s been upset (for years now apparently at me
) about #chrisPratt being thrown under the bus for his religion not understanding there are different denominations w/ radically different beliefs
I could give a sh*t what religion anybody practices AS LONG AS IT IS NOT HARMING OTHERS or wishes harm on others like say… praying for your enemies to die just as 1 example
or imposing your world views on the entire population
#seperationOfChurchAndState should be standard & erosion of this over the past few decades is unbelievably dangerous
Oddly, you’d assume by all appearances I’d be an #atheist but I weirdly actually believe in a monotheistic God, just anti-organized religion & definitely not Christian in any way shape or form & as long as one is not an #Evangelical forcing their dogma into our politics, it’s all
@FinchHaven @PattyHanson @wdlindsy @skykiss
This series #MrsAmerica was incredible #cateBlanchett
#TheFamily a series based on book by Jeff Shartlet is also pretty great about a similar subject matter
Christianity, or any religion for that matter, isn’t my issue but #Evangelicals #ChristianRight are …special. Any person or group that forces/shoves their moral beliefs on others under the guise of “God’s will” is misguided to say the least
@Bette #TheFamily, a #book and #Netflix show by #JeffSharlet covers this very well.
@KrissyKat Sarah is awesome!
I add @jeffsharlet also because his book and #Netflix #documentary, #TheFamily, do a great job of documenting the #global spread of #religious #fascism, which serves the needs and goals of the #transnational #crime #syndicate.
The fact that the #Democrats still haven't learned anything from decades-long #Republican training programs like this (e.g., #TheFamily, #CStreet) and instituted their own well-funded political recruitment, training, and outreach programs is one reason I hate the #DemocraticParty and a major reason why the #right dominates nearly every level of #government in nearly every state.
Fight back, hard. Stop rolling over, damn it

@KimPerales El es un pendejo que cree que they're gonna let him be white, like most light-skinned Latins believe.
It's shameful, disgusting, and embarrassing.
As @jeffsharlet has documented, the somewhat clandestine global organization known as #TheFamily uses a fundamentalist "christianity" to bind together disparate racial and ethnic groups fundamentalist "christians" have long viewed as undesirable and less-than.

Power, #ÜberAlles.
#TheClearing on #DisneyPlus feels chillingly a lot like #TheFamily. There are claims that similarities are not intentional, but I'm sorry. Other than names being changed, and small details here and there, it's just too much like what really happened. The cult is called "The Kindred." One character, a missing child, is found at #LakeEildon, which is where The Family compound was. The kids in the series even have bleached blonde hair and wear matching track suits.
Just. Like. The. Family. Did.
#President #GitanasNauséda, #Lithuania, wants head of #Russian #Orthodox #Church added to #EU #sanctions list because President "sees the marriage of the church with #political bodies in #Russia".
#JeffSharlett, in his book and #Netflix #series, #TheFamily, details the #global scope of the strengthening, intentional, union of #fundamentalist #religion with #authoritarian #ideologies and #regimes.
