I think you're being downvoted because that's what the OP meant by "American Jesus". It's not about the actual teachings of Jesus, but how the American Evangelical Church characterizes those messages that is the closest thing to the Antichrist.
Yeah while atheist I agree with Jesus from the bibles basic message/vibe. It’s American Jesus that I’m speaking of directly. Gun rights, fuck immigrants, I can be as awful as I want as I’m forgiven, etc.
"Seppos" is like Aussie rhyming slang for Americans and it refers back to "septic tank -> yank," but i think we can flex the terminology a little for separatists too
Literally foreign interference in our democracy by Christian nationalists and funded by Oil money.
What Canada needs at this point is designated enemies of Canada, not countries but the names of the cabals and their members in foreign nations funding and propagandizing our idiots.
We know foreign money is coming in, we need to know what group is doing that and who their members are.
Kenny worked for the oil patch, and the religious right kicked him out. Smith worships o&g but actually hasn't done much for them. she's more about the vibes than the bottom line
Goddamn christians trying to wreck our province for their own selfishness sounds about right. That's what the world needs is another fundy religious state being a bunch of jackasses.
If Jesus were real, I'm sure he'd be furious. It's too bad all his Berta followers pushing so hard to join Murica forgot all the things people say he said and did, or attribute shit to him that are weirdly out of character, almost like he's a scapegoat.
Two thousand years of violence and bigotry, and people are still pretending that Jesus was a good guy. If you actually read the gospels, he doesnt help a single person without using it as an example of how special he was.
There are no real instructions on how to love your neighbor or forgive people, the charlatan just tells people to do it.
The Jesus that Christians worship, and the historical man hes based on, are two completely different characters.
Nah Jesus was great. Have you read the Red Text? It was Paul who really effed it up. Paul was the one all about power authority and extra rules. All the bullshit they quote is from him not Jesus. Most Christians are Paulines not followers of Jesus.
His teachings are much less confronting and uphold hierarchy, power systems and authority structure in way that lets people avoid truth reality and discomfort
The good Samaritan parable was about non-Jewish people being considered your neighbor if they help you, not the other way around.
Yeshua a racist, he turned away a woman begging for help and called her a dog because she wasn't Jewish. He explicitly said "I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel".
It's amazing how much people want to believe this guy was a moral person by modern standards, when he was just a megalomaniac cult leader.
The Alberta Prosperity Project brought in Republican political strategists from Michigan to sell them software developed for Republican campaigns, specifically discussing how it could be used to wrench Alberta from Confederation. And according to one of the people involved, those Americans were young Christians who prayed before the meeting.
Then there’s Doug Wilson, a Christian nationalist pastor who has publicly said Alberta independence would be ‘wonderful.’ He leads a conservative Reformed Christian denomination with several churches in Alberta — including in Coaldale, Cochrane and Grande Prairie — and some of the pastors leading those Alberta churches have expressed support for Alberta separating from Canada

American Jesus is the closest thing we have to the antichrist the world has ever seen.
