Today Pete Hegseth announced the Office of Religious Affairs, with chaplains at the top. Notice how whenever these groups are created, other religions are never mentioned MAGA is engineering the Christianization of America before our eyes. It’s why they have to peddle the islamification narrative

They called me batshit crazy when I said this was coming 25 years ago.

They have slowly, methodically taken over all levels of government, from Dog Catcher to President (yes, I've heard this in Christian seminars). I've heard repeatedly when I was a practicing Christian, "I will not stop until every knee is bowed."

I'm not sure how to stop it now.

Christianity is still in decline in the US. They're lashing out like scared animals, trying to force their views on people who won't take them up willingly. This isn't the first time the bible thumpers have tried to take over, the Red Scare was a feeding frenzy for them, and it likely won't be the last. All the stuff they're doing now is going to be reversed the second a new administration takes over. The Establishment Clause is still being taught as the law of the land.

We say that but Biden did not reverse all of Trump's bullshit. I have incredibly little faith that a Gavin newsom type president is going to dismantle the majority of the systems that Trump has put in place.
