I got it. I simply object to using "good Christianity" to oppose "bad Christianity". That should be avoided. What is clear is that White Christian Nationalism, like any fascism, is thoroughly evil.

Excuse me James but nowhere was I pushing "good Christianity." As you noted, "White Christian Nationalism, like any fascism, is thoroughly evil" and I have a problem having it cloaked as religion, and it needs to be called out....

You wrote: "Here we have Biden who has made gaffes for the last half century, a true Christian . . ." My point is that the good that a person exhibits is not dependent on religion, and conversely the bad that a person exhibits is often a consequence of a religious belief that is psychological in nature. My very first reply to you was "Please leave religion out of this!" I stand on that comment. We must remove religion from political discourse, not inject it. That is what history has taught us, or tried to teach us.

And it is clear that it does not really follow the spirit of Jesus Christ in its violence. My husband has studied the bible fairly thoroughly earlier in his life. He tells me it does not discuss abortion. So, putting women to death who have abortions is not really coming from the bible but what they are wrongly interpreting something in it to mean.
