"When you think about it, isn't like, believing in black holes take as much faith as believing in God? Please listen. Please listen to me. I don't want to be alone in Heaven. Oh God."

    Conservatives furiously typing out their essays about how leftists told people to hate religion and that's literally the only reason people stopped going to church

    They stopped going to church because YOU WERE IN THE PEWS

    If you're against gay marriage and for conversion therapy and against abortion and refuse to act Christlike and actively worsen people's lives, why the fuck would anyone want to join your club

    How the fuck are conservatives so good at capitalist propaganda but dogshit stupid at religious propaganda

      Yeah even from a young age I was fine going to church and even interested in theology for a bit, but the right wing politics never vibed at any point. I was already kinda on my way out in 2015 or so, but I was doing a lot to consciously tune Trump out with the media talking about him all the time. I knew at that point I wouldn't be going back for a long time, if ever.
