Hypocrisy is also a sin. The christian right are invariably hypocrites. They pretend to espouse values they don't believe in, then they judge others despite being deeply flawed themselves. It's not even an itty bitty sin. Hypocrisy is caused by pride and pride goes before a fall. And to top it off, they don't even believe they're being prideful. You can't ask for forgiveness for something you fundamentally don't believe is wrong. So according to their own religious text, they're all going to hell.

The religious right (that is the ministries behind the white Christian nationalist movement), like the Republican party, believe in loyalty over principle that is bigotry made doctrine. It's proper to forgive those who are fellow members of the movement while condemning everyone on the outside. That is to say women, blacks, atheists, counter-culture enthusiasts and eventually those insufficiently loyal or patriotic within the movement will never be worthy of inclusion.

It's a facet of fascism.

It's a facet of fascism

An evangelical fundamentalist industry, profit-driven and power-hungry by any means necessary, relying on slick hysterical propaganda to keep "the flock" scared and hooked... with an open wallet. One of the festering boils in a social disease that aims to keep society weak and regressive.
