You're mistaken. While I would agree that most conservative politicians, pundits, and mouthpieces are con artists who don't actually believe most of the religious bullshit they pander, the average conservative voter does trend significantly more religious. This is true practically everywhere in the world. Religion is the primary source of conservative beliefs and ideology.

Not all conservatives are the same. I know plenty of the staunchly religious type. Two things can be true at the same time.

It’s all virtue signaling to disguise being vile snakes out to enrich themselves and their families, while actively fucking over the rest of the country/world to get there.

Those republicans use identity politics and religion to control the votes of evangelical/fundamentalist christians.

The xtian nationalists/zionists would declare they are the ONLY xtians. It's not a distraction at all; their goofy bullshit about their chosen version of the various Abrahamic cults is something they absolutely believe in and it's dragging down all of humanity.

Dumbasses missed the point of your post. You are absolutely right. Their religiosity is performative to mask the fact that they are just shit human beings.

Sorry, point taken. I definitely was directing my "Conservatives" comment specifically at conservatives in the government.

Obviously, my comment was. HUGE blanket generalization, which is never a great stance.

It's sad you're being downvoted by "Reddit Atheist" types
