  1. Sometime back, maybe 5 years ago, I came across the phrase #exvangelical . It resonated with me as I was exploring #orthodoxy and some of my deeply held convictions were fraying at the edges. Just a few days ago, on seeing the term in someone's bio, i realize I have fully walked that path now. I am thankful for my time in #protestant land as an #evangelical but I am glad to have joined the ancient church.

  2. Do you remember the book & Windows CD-ROM "The Bible Code" came out or was your family not as wildly evangelical pentecostal as mine?
    :blobcatthink: 😅

    BTW, it was published by Simon & fucking Schuster. Not some niche Christian press.

  3. @theogrin It has been my lived experience over decades.

    I wish it was common knowledge, but I'm not sure of much of anything these days.

    "The guilty dog barks the loudest" comes to mind, though.

    Umm...I actually read the red words.

    “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full."
    Matthew 6:5 NIV

  5. @lnsy_dev @blogdiva 🎯

    Both because it is absolutely necessary AND there is already a blueprint for it in the Judeo-Christian worldview. I use to hear about the "Year of Jubilee" growing up in #evangelical church.

    This #EXvangelical supports #JubileeOrWar2028

  6. just so y’all understand that the #SSPX is basically a #fascist cult, without Lefebvre there would have, most likely, never been a Jean-Marie Le Pen or a National Front in #France

    the SSPX was #MAGA #evangelical #christofascist before it was cool. you've never heard of them because they hate evangelicals, christofascists or otherwise.

  7. I was particularly offended at the funeral when the #evangelical preacher anticipated that some present would not share their belief. He actually said, "Some of you don't believe that, because you've never been quiet enough to hear what the still small voice of God is trying to say to you."

    Fuck you, pastor, I spent twenty years of my adult life sincerely believing in Christianity, and it was proven to be false. I tried it; it failed. But pastor must slander to maintain "faith."

  8. Religious people often think that religion helps people grieve. But let me tell you that #evangelical funerals are god-awful! I just attended one of a more distant family member, whom I hadn't seen in probably ten years, and it was all about the necessity of submitting to God to go to heaven. Readers, I literally never heard this man mention God, not once, in decades.

    If dead men tell to tales, it's amazing how many words can be put in their mouths!

  9. Engaging a MAGA Evangelical: A Progressive Dialogue at Dan Crenshaw’s Kingwood Office Protest

    A progressive challenges a MAGA evangelical’s worldview, exposing the roots of division and inequality. This gripping exchange demonstrates how progressives can engage with conservatives through facts & moral clarity.

  10. *US vs Geisinger*

    7. How would patients be hurt by the transaction?
    Hospitals compete to attract patients to their facilities by offering high quality care, a broad #scope of #services, #amenities, #convenience, customer service, and attention to patient satisfaction. This competition improves access to #healthcare, reduces wait times, and improves the quality of care for all patients, including commercially insured, #Medicare, #Medicaid, and #uninsured #patients. #Hospitals also compete to be included in health insurers’ networks and this #competition enables insurers to #negotiate lower #reimbursement rates and other terms that reduce healthcare costs, all for the benefit of patients. This transaction permanently and fundamentally alters the competitive relationship between #Geisinger and #Evangelical by linking them together in a number of ways that, taken together, raise the likelihood of coordination and reduce #Geisinger
    #incentivetocompete #aggressive against each other... The transaction is likely to lead to #highprices, #lowquality, and #reducedaccess to high-quality #inpatient hospital services for patients in central Pennsylvania. In addition, the transaction creates incentives for Geisinger to raise prices to commercial insurers and other #purchasers inpatient acute care...

  11. Have you seen the #shinyhappypeople docuseries exposing the #Duggars & the #IBLP #Gothard #cult? It is important because it exposes #conservative #evangelical #christianity in the #USA and how long plans have been in motion to basically take over all levels of government - but especially the #scotus . Here’s my B4 & after fundie, Gothardesque pic. #iGotOut
