Fellow forum lefties pls stop fighting amongst yourselves and become hardcore misanthropes like me. Realize that most Americans are terrible
It's hard to not see it that way at times. I wonder if the national cultural has really shifted that far from the one that fostered:
1) Japanese-American Internment Camps
2) Trail of Tears
3) Annihilation of Native Americans
4) Colonization and depreciation of territories and citizens therein
5) 9/11 Response
6) Overall regime change
7) Preying on those who need the most
The list can go on and on. There is a serious rot. I was raised Christian, and my parents pretty much taught me the polar opposite of all of that (and they were conservative by PR standards).
I was also raised Christian, still am. Thought about becoming a pastor. It took me to realize that I'm a terrible Christian as well as a terrible person in general to see that it's not the job for me. But if any country needs meaningful spiritual revival, it's this one, and American Christianity needs to be taken back from the idolaters and the hypocrites.
Every Christian is a terrible Christian. That's why salvation is by faith alone.
