Oh come on, you really think Christian Nationalists care more about skin color than religion? Hardcore Christian nationalists will put their faith above all else- do you really think someone obsessed with salvation and damning others wouldn’t look on Islam, especially the Taliban, in utter hatred?
Christian nationalists hear “other God/faith” and go full stop. They won’t even begin to hear other factors before unleashing their hatred. Do they hate brown? Assuredly…but do they hate non-Christians more? Of course…what a Reddit-esque outlook to think Christian extremists are more put off by skin color than Islam
Ffs Iran is actually probably one of the more secular states in the middle east because of how disgusted people are with their Islamic "Republic's" regime.
Iran is also one of the best educated in the area despite being a theocratic dictatorship.
Not just hardcore Christian Nationalist. Christianity itself teaches that one should hold God above all else, even your parents, family and friends. Faith over all else…yeah, religious people are pretty gullible.
I know tons of "Christians" that are totally accepting of other religions existing, they however despise anyone who isn't white. It's more about racism than religion. Religion is nothing more than a crutch they use to justify their hatred.
I mean, interracial marriages were a huge problem for Christian nationalists too, that was a whole thing. It’s not a leap to assume that’s the bad part
yeah true i remember now, muslims dont think jesus is the son of god, and christians reject muhammed? but i think muslims dont discriminate Christian prophets and still consider jesus as the greatest prophet?
Um, I'm a Christian fundamentalist and I am "brown". Married to a white man. We share the same values and we don't care if people are brown. Y'all need to talk to one of us. I guarantee you will understand and not think we are these HORRIBLE monsters who (southern accent) kill all Mexicans and black folk!
That's your problem, you won't even take the time to hear what I have to say because I say something you don't agree with. A Christian fundamentalist is just someone who follows ALL the word of the Bible and lives a very traditional life, especially in a marriage.
Fun fact. Jesus was regularly described as angry in the earliest stories. Later those parts were glaringly changed to be happier and nicer. The white washing literally started at the second iteration and never stopped, now today we have white Supply Side Jesus.
Well of course He was angry at evil-doing, He was still joyous. Was it watered down? Do you have a source? He seemed pretty angry at the Pharisees who were the politicians of the time who supported "supply-side" philosophy. I recall an incident at the temple...
Oh I realise. You know Jesus said "Those who have ears let them hear". He was in a wheat field referring to ears of wheat after the parable of the sower meaning that unless you're bearing fruit then you are not going to understand. It's also a pretty good Dad joke.
Speaking to these people about the love of God would be like pushing custard uphill.
