I'm still absolutely shocked at the complete blindness, that this dude would get away with selling the Bible for his own aggrandizement, packed with literal idolatry, and face very little resistance from it.

This bizarre conflation of Christianity with patriotic capitalism and flag worship is one of the biggest real life conspiracies of our time, and it was absolutely a hostile takeover of the church by corporate and state interests.

Churches were once considered "too leftist" because they served their communities and preached the Gospel of Christ, and if they were involved in politics, it was definitely not to engage in politician worship.

It makes me weep inside, how extinguished the light has become...

Remember, when Satan offered Jesus "power over all the nations of the world", it wouldn't have been a temptation if he didn't have it to offer... If this isn't proof of that, I dunno what is ...
