The GOP has become pseudo religious party dominated by false religious PACS profiting from selling salvation for a profit. They are NON non profit religions as they claim. And they have infiltrated the body politic and are determined to undermine democratic government and replace it with a one party dictatorship dominated by oligarchs and big business.
They are as far removed from any semblance of religion. That makes churches and the preacher shills fair game for criticism and retribution. The pseudo religious right has no place in the design of public policy.

(95,337 posts)Paul was Christianities first fundamentalist and religious whack job. Too many times the words he said went against what Jesus told us. And to many religious fundies today base their faith on the words of Paul. I'm starting to think perhaps Paul was the first Anti-Christ. Jesus said it would be someone who walked amongst us saying that he 'knew Jesus' and would gather followers in Christ's name.

It's "Paulianity" or "Peterianity"
Mysogynistic, anti intellectual nonsense, plain and simple. Throw in enough backwards thinking, discriminatory Old Testament bullshit and you have the perfect religion for the demographic of badly educated Americans.

(33,688 posts)And if these words you do not heed
Your pocketbook just kinda might recede
When some man comes along and
Claims godly need
He will clean you out right through your
Tweed
That's right, remember there is a big
Difference between kneeling down
And bending over...
He's got twenty million dollars
In his heavenly bank account...
All from those chumps who was
Born again
Oh yeah, oh yeah
He's got seven limousines
And a private plane...
All for the use of his
Special friends
Oh yeah, oh yeah
He's got thousand-dollar suits
And a wembley tie...
Girls love to stroke it
While he's on the phone
Oh yeah, oh yeah
At the house of representatives
He's a groovy guy...
When he gives thanks
He is not alone...
He is dealin'
He is really dealin'
IRS can't determine
Where the hook is
It is easy with the bible
To pretend that
You're in show biz
They won't get him
They will never get him
For the naughty stuff
That he did
It is best in cases like this
To pretend that
You are stupid
He's got presidential help
All along the way
He says the grace
While the lawyers chew
Oh yeah
They sure do
And the govenors agree to say:
"he's a lovely man!"
He makes it easier for
Them to screw
All of you...
Yes, that's true!
'cause he helps put the fear of god
In the common man
Snatchin' up money
Everywhere he can
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
He's got twenty million dollars
In his heavenly bank account
You ain't got nothin', people
You ain't got nothin', people
You ain't got nothin', people
Thank the man...oh yeah
