Don't they have that weird thing where they think if all the Jews are in Israel, then the apocalypse will happen and all the evangelicals get raptured or some shit?
Yeah it's a really common theory in evangelical circles, the church I went to as a kid believed all that bullshit. Occurs due to boomer brain viewing literally everything as an action movie in which they're the protagonist, interpreting Revelations literally instead of viewing it as a metaphor, or about the downfall of Rome, and reading too much Left Behind. Apparently Mike Pence believes all this, weather he actually is a true believer or not no one really knows.
Lemme guess it was the "opiate of the masses" quote misconstrued as being anti-religion and not that religion was a respite from the oppression and alienation of capitalism?
I feel like it's more common among americans in general. I guess they conceptualize ethnicity differently from Europeans with the whole white/nonwhite thing.
Also listening to the latest chapo+trueanon podcast right now and they're doing the same thing talking about "fake Russian Jews" who have no "authentic connection to judaism". Not a good look.
