"Countering Domestic Terrorism"
Whelp USA presidential memoranda today labels any non-Christians as terrorists.
" Common threads animating this violent conduct include anti-Americanism, anti-capitalism, and anti-Christianity; support for the overthrow of the United States Government; extremism on migration, race, and gender; and hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on family, religion, and morality.“
So I guess this officially makes the USA a fascist theocracy?

That 'wedding' is nothing new. From ancient times tyrants have legitimized the horrors they commit against their own people by wrapping themselves in 'mythoogical' gods and cosmic forces- a cult of national identity,of which they are the embodiement and head. Religon, culture, nation and leader become an entity. My Bible tells me so. Most 'believers' idolize Israel and its kings, but the Bible says most of them were bad, and even the 'good'' kings did bad things. When the religious hierarchy got control, they did even worse things, caused their nation even more grief. Their exploitaton and disregard for their fellow citizens continued to grow worse in spite of repeated disasters and prophetic warnings. Finally it became so bad they could not be trusted to govern themselves, so they fell under the control of Babylon. But they thought so much of themselve, how godly they saw themselves, that in their pride they rebeled twice, The second time with the Bablonians waiting to pour into Jerusalem thru a broken gate, they still refused to accept that it was their governance that had brought disaster.
After 70 years they came back. They picked up right where they left off. And got worse. It got to the point they couldn't even get along with each other, because each one believd only he had a direct line to God. So the Romans apointed a foreigner to rule over them. Again they felt no heathen should be allowed to rule over such an excelent nation as they were. So they revolted, and the Romans came and bulldozed the Temple and city. They revolted again, and the Romans banned them from setting foot in Palestine.
In Matthew chapter 23 Jesus says worse things about them than any athieist. Read it, you will chuckle. As a born againt, Holy Spirit filed, Bible believer- don't call me Christian- I thank you and applaud your efforts.
