    Conservatives aren’t Christian, so…. What’s the point of this?

        People who claim to be Christian maybe. But if you read the Bible- you’d see that NONE of them walk the walk. So therefore, no.

        Not Christians even in the slightest.

          I get what you mean, but IMO we are at the point where the “good christians” should be thinking of a different name for themselves and attempting to distance themselves from the rest of Christianity.

          When the great majority of self identified christians are hateful, bigoted, and cruel, then Christianity as a whole is hateful, bigoted, and cruel. People outside of the religion do NOT see a distinction between those that actively advocate for hate and those that are just still showing up for church on sunday.

            The Cathars of the 13th century called themselves the Good Christians for that very reason. They were all murdered by the other Christians.
