Because Abrahamic faiths are first and foremost built on deciding a truth and working backwards to “prove”(convince yourself and brainwash your kids) it.
This works well for right wing ideologies built around social classes and believing whatever you’re told without question.
Add to that that Christians are on average significantly dumber, then all you have to do is tickle their confirmation bias and they won’t give anything you do a second thought.
The bible is full of so many contradictions and so much vague bs. They use it with their pretzel logic to justify whatever atrocity they're into at the time. A lot of them are also narcissists. They're self-important because they're trying to do "god's will."
~~>socialist utopia~~
more like fascism
Theocratic confusion. Republicans worship Supply-Sidr Jesus. Christians model themselves after Jesus of Nazareth, Christ. The similar names are a source of confusion.
Also neither is related to Jesus that sells tamles at the farmer's market, tho I hear he is a pretty good guy.
All organized religions are about an elite controlling everyone else. Unlike some other ways to organize people it depends highly on ignorant people who breed quickly to produce lots of grist for the mill.
Perfect target for fascists
Because a wolf in sheep's clothing eats better than when it's seen for what it really is.
Republicans are a lot of things.
Christian isn't one of them.
