Onward, Christian assholes

Got your Christianity right here, Jerry

Jerry Falwell, Jr., head of Liberty University and evangelical leader ad nauseum, gave an interview this week to The Washington Post in which he basically fellated Donald Trump (He can do no wrong!) and showed yet again that the evangelical movement in this country has nothing at all to do with Christianity.  He did show, however, that the movement is just as full of cowards and liars as the republican party, and like the republican party its only interests are male power, white power, and sucking up to the wealthy.

Here's my favorite:  "A poor person never gave anyone a job."  Neither did a rich person, fuckhead--jobs are earned, not given.  Even so, it sure sounds to me as if Mr. Falwell is saying that the poor aren't as important to the religious right as are the rich.  Where exactly in the Bible does Christ say to fellate the wealthy and shit on the poor?

Thankfully, this is just another nail in the coffin for organized religion.  Americans over the past few decades have abandoned religion (though not belief in God) in droves, which isn't surprising when your religious movement's message is white, male, and rich, in a country whose diversity is expanding rapidly.

Fuck Donald Trump,
