I mean, at what point haven’t they ignored the bible?!?
Supply side jesus is their “guy”…..
The Bible has nothing to do with their faith unless it’s to shame, ridicule and torment someone else.
Of course they will
The Bible to them is an excuse when they can use it and forgotten when it gets in the way of what they want.

Evangelicals will support Trump because a lot of them literally believe he will cause Armageddon and help kick off a war in the middle east. The politics on the right in this country have been taken over by a Christian death cult and they want to Jonestown all of us with them.
There is nothing Christian about evangelicals.
Is this from 2016? I could swear it was from 2016….
They chose that back in 2016, and they used the bible to do it. Let’s stop pretending the bible is some actual divine document that, if followed, would lead to good things.
“now”?
No idea who Raymond A. Hult is, but 7 years into this and he’s still not figuring it out. You’d have to have zero Christian friends at this point not to understand this.
Evangelicals will ignore everything in favor of ushering in their apocalypse.
What we’re seeing is quite simply a loosening of the requirement for evangelicals to pretend about what they pretend about.
It was never about Jesus.
They’ve ignored the teachings of Jesus their entire lives. Why start caring now?
NOW?
I swear to fucking God.
The naivety in this country is fucking pathetic.
There are now churches that have proclaimed that the teachings of Jesus are woke. Most Americans who called them selves Christians have absolutely nothing in common with the teachings of Jesus.
They practice a bastardized version of Christianity, where the stranger is suspect, the poor are on their own, and money changers are more than welcome in the temple.
Not all religions are good. Evangelical Christianity is a pox upon the earth, and its eradication will be for the benefit of humanity.
I doubt many of them has even read (the entire) Bible. If they did, they’d realize that Jesus was a WOKE socialist.
They always have. Or they cherrypick the bible to justify their bigotry and hatred. Anyone who’s actually read that drivel cover to cover knows how full of shit it is.
LMAO. Of COURSE they do.
“Now”
Now?!?
Now?
Yes.
According to my evangelical mother-in-law yes. Yes they do. She also things WiFi gives you cancer and the Israeli conflict is an omen of the second coming of Christ.
They’ve always ignored the Bible when it suited them
So much of the world’s evil has been committed with one hand wrapped around a holy book, and the other wrapped around a weapon. Religion and morality are not guaranteed partners.
What do you mean now? They made that choice in 2016 and it wasn’t a particularly difficult choice since they already were ignoring the Bible.
Trump is their god
“Now”? The bible is a cudgel evangelicals use to beat people who are not like them, and aren’t otherwise useful to them. They never use it on themselves or their friends.
Probably. I am pretty sure it was the christians that elected Hitler.
If there’s one thing I appreciate about Trump it’s that he exposed white evangelicals for the frauds they are. They’re literally against everything Jesus preached as evidence by their mindless support for Trump.
When did they ever not? Goldwater warned us about these people who want an Iranian style theocracy and are certain that they alone are right. Anybody that overly involves their religion in American politics might as well hate both.
What’s this word “now” as if they haven’t been ignoring it the entire time? Republicans are walking, talking, projecting hypocrites.
People who think evangelicals are all idiots or something are lying to themselves. You honestly think they don’t know who Trump is? He is a means to an end, he rubber-stamps everything they want, he gets the supreme court who they want, he fights for what they want.
That’s all there is to it. Anyone who seriously honestly thinks that they are ignorant or too dumb to accomplish what they want is, either blind or idiotic, or both.
“Pointing out hypocrisy” is literally the same thing as a pedestrian confidentially jumping out in front of the incoming car because “they have right of way”.
Look at *reality* not whatever bullshit fantasy you pretend runs the world and influences people
I grew up in the Bible Belt in the 60’s-70’s. It was common for evangelicals at the time to distribute Bible Tracts (pamphlets and booklets) with a focus on the rapture, the end times, and the Antichrist. Trump fits every description of the Antichrist in those tracts. He embraces lies, adultery, greed and materialism but he is a charismatic leader that fools people into believing in him over god. I was dismissive of those ideas at the time( and still am) but it is hard not to see Trump fill that role perfectly
