Okay, but why all that hate? Was he Charlie Kirk?

    Just a reminder that when you hear about the Christian Right, you are talking about Evangelicals. But knowing what reality is… those people can’t even follow proper Evangelical teachings.

      Don’t forget the trad-caths. What evangelicals are to protestantism, trad-caths are to catholicism.

          Traditional Catholics. It’s actually several different groups of Catholics that have ported many of the social positions of evangelicals into Catholicism.

            Is this the group that did the whole slander against a certain minority in the late 1800s to mid 1900s worldwide? Or is this an offshoot?

              It’s a whole bunch of splinter groups who all disagree with the modern “woke” church to varying degrees. For example, my parents follow of the FSSP, which refuses to acknowledge anything post-Vatican II and still insists on performing mass in Latin, plus all the regular “traditional” religious crap. If you listen to my dad discussing politics it’s abundantly clear that he actively supports all the stereotypically Evangelical talking points, and isn’t even particularly Catholic since he hates the Pope for being so “woke”.

              “I believe in one holy and apostolic church” my ass, you believe in your own church old man

                Isn’t the Pope like the conduit of god or such? I always thought Popes were like the final say and you weren’t allowed to disagree with them. I mean a whole bunch of people went to the Southern Mediterranean because a few of them ordered it, right? I admit my knowledge is a little lacking in the Catholic belief structure.

      Especially in co servative culture there’s two sets of rules. The explicit (slave) rules, and the implicit (true virtue) rules which are not spoken aloud. They are often opposite.
