    Schools < city < state < nation < a foreign nation.

    Just as our forefathers intended. /s

    This nation needs re-education camps.

    Honestly should’ve been northern hemisphere but typical. Serious question would they even pray for Earth or or even our galaxy in the upcoming 500yrs (I say this presumably that space travel may exist safely and possibly)?

    Many churches and especially political action committees based on Christianity function as death cults. I'd say they definitionally don't care at all about earth or the people on it. Not wanting people to go to hell stands in juxtaposition to their desire to themselves be raptured.

    It also begs the question of why we allow people who yearn for the end times to be the preferred leaders of what used to be the most powerful nation, but a little out of scope for a dumb church sign.

    You should check out Orson Scott Card. He's a Mormon, but seems to ascribe to something similar to the OP.

    He's got a rama series and the enderverse where he explores all of that. Probably a lot more, but that's all I've read.

    At some point his islamaphobia gets the better of him, but he has quite the body of work and can spin a yarn with the best of them.

    Let me translate: for racism, for fascism, for violence, for hate, for war crimes against humanity.

    It's already doing something. Mentally and culturally. It's a memetic plague.

    They're mostly German. Not sure whether to interpret that as zionist = nazis and we've got a nazism problem, zionist =/= nazi and we've got a liberalism problem, both, or the scratch a liberal and a nazi bleeds thing is real in more cases than I thought.

  • There is a certain brand of Christianity for which the current nation state of Israel is somehow magically a direct continuation of the Jewish tribes from the Old Testament and who are also somehow [now] exempt from the laws outlined therein.

    Nevermind that a significant portion of the old testament consists of either the prophets railing against Israel or God punishing Israel for doing evil shit.

    To borrow a phrase from King of the Hill, "If those Baptists could read, they'd be very upset."
