Before I get accused of blasphemy, I want the world to know that I am a believer. I am a believer in everything that Jesus taught, yet am appalled by what so-called Christians are spouting in the name of God. It's not Jesus that is drunk; it's people who twist His words to fit their personal politics.
There can be no doubt that Jesus was a liberal. Seek out every word that He spoke in the Gospel. Interpret every word that He said. They amount to: believe, love, give, forgive, feed, take care of, welcome, and don't be afraid.
When I was young and innocent, I believed that the American Dream meshed with what Jesus wanted for us. Apparently, I was wrong. Apparently, the American Dream is all about doing to others before they can do unto me. It's all about treading on your liberty so I can have mine. It's about blindly following a false idol, a man who is NOT God, and has not one example of how to treat others with compassion.
Frankly, I am devastated. Donald Trump has taken from me things that I don't think I can ever get back. I once believed in my country and its government. I'm all done with that as the COVID virus and the stupidity that surrounds the Trump administration keeps pushing the envelope of the believable.
God help us all.
