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.

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: 😅https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Bible_Code_(book)
BTW, it was published by Simon & fucking Schuster. Not some niche Christian press.

@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 -
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

"As a former leader of the #ComandoVermelho I interviewed for a my article told me, to #evangelical Christians, funk is acceptable because it represents the devil, which is something you can repent. Samba, Jongo, Capoeira and other traditions represent an alternative religious belief system were things that evangelicals needed to destroy.
Whereas it is true that there were a few evangelical Christians on the 1994 and 2002 World Cup teams, most weren’t explicitly connected to prosperity gospel churches. This started with Kaka and Robinho, whose family belonged to the same prosperity gospel Church as #Neymar. Neymar followed and has been a huge influence on the current generation of players. The 2026 squad only has one non-evangelical in the starting lineup.…
This has resulted in #narcissistic players who believe they are famous because they are more special than commoners, more holy than lesser players. It’s not very good for teamwork and this was exemplified by Neymar’s individualist histrionics when he came onto the pitch after the mandatory corporate advertising break in the second half of the game against Norway."https://bmier.substack.com/p/brazil-fizzles-again-the-capitalist

#tRump blasts 'godless' Democrats in incendiary speech to evangelicals
"Trump accused Democratic left of being "hardcore, godless communists" in a #divisive, politicized speech Fri full of #falsehoods abt his perceived foes as he addressed evangelicals at #rightwing #Christian conference🤥.. Despite a career mired in legal & ethical #scandals (fr alleged #affairs to #felony) twice-divorced Trump remains popular w the #evangelical right"🤦♂️

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."

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!

Why do so many #evangelical leaders end up being… creeps?
"In this video, I explore the disturbing pattern of #abuse, manipulation, and scandal among #Christian leaders — from #prosperitygospel #televangelists to #culturewar #preachers. This isn’t just about a few bad apples. These #ministries attract creeps, protect them, and often reward them for their worst behavior."

True believers are convinced Christ will return to earth not to establish a #ConstitutionalDemocracy but an absolute #theocraticmonarchy in which the ruler can never be questioned. In the end, this both explains what we are witnessing in the #evangelical dismissal of the #Epstein scandal and encapsulates the gravest danger we face as Americans.

Ten years later, #ErinHawley, 44, is now at the center of one of the country’s most heated cultural battles about #BodilyAutonomy, #GenderRoles & #abortion. On Tues, for the first time since the overturning of #RoeVWade, #SCOTUS considered a case involving #nationwide limits on #abortion #access. And Ms. Hawley was the woman standing before the justices, arguing to sharply curtail access to the #AbortionPill.

The woman arguing against #mifepristone, the #AbortionPill, before #SCOTUS is #ErinHawley, the wife of Sen #JoshHawley & a #law prof.
Ms. Hawley, is a lawyer for a #conservative #Christian #legal group, & identifies as an #evangelical, a wife & a mother. [#TradWife]

What #Katie #Britt’s misleading, melodramatic speech revealed about the Republican Party
The question for the #evangelical #voters who make up much of the Republican base is
-- how much more politics can #outweigh #morals in the name of whatever conservatism even means anymore?Politico reported Monday that an evangelical group is 🔸spending north of $60 million🔸 to get a twice-impeached, repeatedly indicted former president back in the White House,
so perhaps that is our answer.The whole “moral majority” movement in conservative politics always involved #theatrics and #cosplay.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene took it to a new level by deploying Hunter Biden’s sexting photos during a House committee hearing.
And now the future of the Republican Party is sitting in a kitchen purporting to speak honestly with voters of faith while telling a lurid lie for political purposes.

#TheRapture is one of those serendipitous finds that used to make #CableTV so satisfying for me.
The best thing (along with #FullBodyMassage) that I've seen #MimiRogers in, and also my introduction to #DavidDuchovny.
The post-80's #evangelical theme is, sadly, still timely. I don't know if the rest will hold up.
I do know that ending has stuck with me more than 30 years and is why #TheCriterionChannel has it in 90's #horror.
