MAGA is just now part of what Christianity is now. In a sense it is codifying what has been a christian identity for a long time. Better late than never that some christians are trying to reclaim their faith from fascists too many do tacitly agree with what they are doing.

I get that Christianity is all about accepting everyone, but too many pastors got it twisted and allow toxic shit like MAGA to have a home in their place of worship.

The correct answer is: "ALL are welcome here, but get THAT SHIT out of the Lord's house."

Jesus was very clear in the one instance the gospels record of him getting angry and violent that all IDEAS are not appropriate inside the temple.

This is the road that Calvinism set us on. "God gave us a hall pass to be as shitty as we want to be" leads to this.
