    The Billy Graham quote below is out dated. I was raised in the Episcopal Church. What I see in Christian Nationalism goes against my beliefs. I was forced to attend a Sunday service in Atlanta, Georgia in the late 90’s. The minute the service began, I wanted to run screaming from the “church”. Very backward, anti-woman, pro-gun, and un-Christian. I am not surprised by what has happened since that time. I just didn’t expect it to take over politics. It is frightening. I call trump, the Orange Antichrist because what he believes in is evil.

      I believe in the separation of CHURCH & STATE. I do not want religion taught in schools. I was not aware of the changes made to the Pledge of Allegiance & coins. I thought it had always been there.
      Recently, a man from Germany said he was surprised we have a Pledge of Allegiance, he thought it reeked of the Third Reich

      I read Ralph Lord Roy's book published 1953, Apostles of Discord: A Study of Organized Bigotry and Disruption on the Fringes of Protestantism. This book describes a very dark side of the spiritual mobilization movement. Billy Graham was 35 years old, preaching the word and fully immersed in the Deep State "path" of religious politics.

    Anyone who had been paying attention knew (or should have known) for at least two weeks beforehand what was coming on Jan. 6, 2021. They did not make a secret of what they intended. But nobody took them seriously. I hope everyone is paying more attention now than four years ago, and I hope people realize that it is not just rhetoric with them. There's very good chance Trump will lose (again), and I think the danger is MUCH greater now than four years ago. They won't try to pull the same stunt as four years ago, but rest assured that the battles are not over and done with. When you see those "God, Guns, & Trump" signs - you better believe it, because they mean it.

      The Bible is filled with stories about who rules and wars for leadership over regions. Kings are prominent in every book of the Bile and our country was founded on the principal that NO ONE would be forced to believe any one certain way, but will be guaranteed the right to believe as you will ... however, BELIEVING is at the very core of government. God is the foundation on which men established a place that would be free for you, me, everyone to worship as we see fit. God is not apolitical. He takes a great interest in how we, as a nation, respect and worship the Lord. Sad to say, it appears we've elected to follow the pattern of Sodom and Gomorrah.

Back then we didn't know the long-term effects of drug abuse. Seeing meathead today settles the argument. Brain damage is no laughing matter.
