Can we use the goal of eradicating antisemitism to attack the granting of refugee status to white South Africans who have expressed antisemitism views?
So the Christian Nationists demand the self-fulfilling prophecy. The arrogance of that is gobsmacking. As a very young child, the first time I was taken to Sunday school, I rebelled. I wasn't even old enough for grade school. The next Sunday I was to be taken to Sunday school, I threw a temper tantrum so epic, so majestic, that I recall my father saying, "If she feels this strongly about it, she doesn't have to go." That may have been the only battle I ever won with my parents; but, I also recall that they said, when I was in second grade in 1955, "You don't need to say "Under God" in the Pledge of Allegiance just because Republicans demand it to be there. So - to me, this means we have been undermined at least since mid last century. Geez, these bastards are persistent.
The one hope I see is trying to force people to believe in any kind of religion. I can see people rise up and say "Prayer? You got to be kidding." How anyone ever joined a fundamental church or this Christless cult is mind boggling.

I always rejected religion and have never felt any presence whatsoever threatening me to repent.
