Pastor faces legal trouble for sheltering the homeless during a cold snap

There's been a growing movement in US Christianity specifically that basically throws out all the Christian parts. The Sermon on the Mount especially seems to be a problem for them, but really anything about how caring for others is good.

It's like they're being deceived somehow...

It's called Evangelicalism. Has been a cancerous growth on the US ever since the Mayflower. Who'd think that the Catholics would proof to be more modern and sensible at some point...

Muslims probably.

Even for them it's excessive. They used to at least give lip service, "hate the sin love the sinner" and all that. Even the Dominionsts had the fig leaf that they pretended that their religion made them the most moral so they should rule. But over the last decade or so they dropped all of that and embraced blatant worship of power and open delight in cruelty.

Back in the big push to overthrow separation of church in state and do things like destroy abortion accesd and teach young Earth creationism in the naughties I thought they were bad but I could at least see how they could see themselves as the heroes of the story and justify the harm they did and wanted to do. The version from today I can't, it's just evil on it's face. Petty evil with naked hatred in it's eyes.

It really has become impossible to justify, almost entirely due to the naked hatred.
