ANS -- There Will Be Hilarious Karmic Justice If America Becomes A Christian Theocracy

This piece is both amusing and scary.  It's about what might happen if the people who want to turn this into a "Christian" nation actually got their way.

There Will Be Hilarious Karmic Justice If America Becomes A Christian Theocracy

Christians Will Hate It

Conservatives are incredibly self-centered and short sighted.

All they do, all day long, is play victim, pretend they're being persecuted as they try to discriminate against others, and wind up destroying themselves instead.

They've been on such a horrifying hell bent mission to force their religion on every non-Christian through forcing the Bible into public schools and making priests into counselors, that they don't even realize what they've actually done. The rest of us have gotten so wrapped up in the horror and fear of it, that most people have failed to talk about how much they're damning themselves.

If America becomes a Christian theocracy, most Christians will hate it. Let me explain why.

There are three major sects of Christianity and hundreds of denominations. Every Christian who supports adding their religion to the government is assuming that their specific brand of Christianity is the one that would become the national religion, but with so many different versions of it, they're most likely incorrect.

Christians forget the whole bloody history that Christianity has had of persecuting itself. They're too busy having fantasies about non-Christians discriminating against them that they've forgotten the entire reason Christian puritans moved here in the first place:

To escape the Anglican Christians.

Making America a Christian theocracy will allow them to live out all their craziest dreams of being oppressed. They'll no longer get to decide how they interpret their religion or live it the way they want to. Once you combine Christianity fully with the U.S. government, then having different theological view will become punishable by law.

For example, what if the Seventh Day Adventists win? I went to a Seventh Day Adventist church for a while and absolutely no conservatives will be able to handle it. The Green New Deal they like to complain about will be something they beg and wish to have instead now.

Our military will be gone. Completely dismantled because Seventh Day Adventists are pacifists. Meat will be illegal to eat or sell. They're all vegetarians and if it's the right version of it, all our pets will be gone because they don't allow pets either.

No one can wear jewelry, not even wedding bands. There are Seventh Day Adventists churches who literally cut off people's wedding rings if they show up to church wearing one.

And no one will be allowed to go to church on Sunday anymore. It will be illegal because that's where they get their name from. They uphold the sabbath still and go to church on Saturday.

Or what if the Catholics win? My Mom has called the Pope the fucking anti-Christ my entire life. She won't be allowed to do that anymore. Instead, he will rule over us and we will have to do all the things he says.

We will have to have rosaries and statues of saints, even though Protestants view those as idol worship.

We won't be able to pray to just Jesus. We will have to pray to Mary and Saints now.

And birth control will be gone.

Or what if Mormons win? My church believed Mormonism was an anti-Christian cult, but they're a version of Christianity. They've taken over Utah already, they could take over everything else.

We will all have to join their temple and wear their magic underwear.

We will have to read the Book of Mormon and talk about how amazing Joseph Smith is!

Say goodbye to your morning coffee!

We also might have to embrace polygamy if the right version of it takes over.

If the Pentecostals win, we will have to speak in tongues. We will be forced to faith heal instead of going to the doctor and there will be no divorces ever again. No matter what.

If Jehovah's Witnesses win, we can't get blood transfusions anymore. You're not going to be allowed to say Jesus was God or believe in a trinity. No more hellfire preaching because they don't believe in hell. Cigarettes, alcohol, and drugs will be gone.

No one is going to hate a Christian theocracy more than Christians.

Please share this with any Christian who tells you that prayer should be brought back into schools and ask them what they think. Are they really sure they want to combine Christianity with the government?
