No thank you. Better Christian evangelists than woke tyrants, but neither would be preferable.
Enjoy your kids being groomed and your nation destroyed enlightened one
By the evangelicals? Yeah, we know. They are also a fraud ring that rapes kids.
What we're saying is that being presented with a false choice is not an actual solution.
I don't think evangelicals are out there grooming the kids of others. Whatever bad stuff they do or don't do, they do it to their own. The woke cult targets everyone's children.
Sometimes one has to choose between imperfections.
They absolutely are, in the form of the Joshua Project.
Additionally, pedos within the Evangelical movement also will sexually assault children when in institutional power.
Again, a false choice isn't necessary.
Evangelicals are any of the protestant denominations that believe strongly in preaching the word of God to unbelievers. They are a diverse group and have no strong correlation with pedophiles. There may be small cults within the evangelical umbrella that are linked to pedophiles.
I think your definition is far too broad, as I've heard Evangelicals describe themselves as a specific religious sect stemming out of the 2nd Great Awakening movement.
Your description would be that basically all protestants are Evangelicals. Because all protestants generally do believe in preaching the word of God to non-believers, as it is a moral and religious imperative to save souls.
Average atheist who doesn't know what an evangelical even is.
Wait, you actually think mutilating boys is a Christian practice?
The modern American practice does have its roots in Christianity. The logic goes:
Masturbating is sinful and must be discouraged.
If we remove the foreskins of boys, they won't masturbate.
Ergo, we should remove their foreskins.
This reasoning is no longer applied, of course. Most people don't care if boys masturbate, and those who do realize circumcision won't stop them. It's something done because it's just considered normal, I imagine.
I understand that sentiment, and in fact, I'm an atheist. I do wonder whether the destruction of Christianity has not led to wokeness filling up the vacuum.
There's going to be a state ideology. I'd rather have it be a sane, sensible, cultural Christianity than something far worse. We've learned that the hard way in Europe, where the alternative to Christianity became Islam.
The idea that atheism could fill the moral void of Christianity failed pretty quickly
Atheism is a statement of lacking. It is defined by not having something.
It was never meant to fill a moral void, and is utterly unable to make any morality calls at all. "No one decided things.", "The zero commandments.".
Anyone who thought the idea of NOT thinking of something, could ever have any controlling factor in life, is beyond stupid. I am a-unicornist, it does not impact my moralityview. I am a-leprochaunist, it does not impact my morality view. I am a-theist, it does not impact my morality view. Because you need something there to impact it. A void does not create change or structure.
If I believed in unicorns, I'd likely have some greater valuation to virgin women, since obviously magical beings so clearly favor them. If I believed in leprochauns, then rainbows would take on a very different meaning indeed. These things would impact my life, because they would exist, even if only to me.
For many atheists and "secular-[religion]"ists, they're, honestly, too dumb to hold their own worldview. Because they let something they "know" to not exist, dictate their worldview and life actions. Like a schizophrenic who knows their condition but listens to the voices anyways.
Based.
Christianity is the seed of wokism; the whole slave morality thing where the able are cursed and the weak venerated springs from there.
A Nietzsche fan?
But that was talking about the genuinely oppressed. Not making up phony oppressions for the heck of it.
Unfortunately woke socialists do seem to find a way of infiltrating and subverting atheist spaces in very short order.
Nature abhors a vacuum.
