The Anti-Christian Worldview of Evangelicals: Into the Shithole

Their idea of Christianity, and the avowed understanding of it among evangelicals, is that it's the worldview within which everything works, under Christianity's status as the revealed truth as conveyed in the Bible. This sounds academic. They might insist the point is Jesus but, same thing. Except they believe stepping outside their system to describe it invalidates the description because life is a matter of faith, not of analysis. There's no stepping back. Life apart from faith is invalid. That makes me wonder about all the talk of evangelization in the Bible -- why bother just kill them. 

So it applies to governments, of course. These are Christian or they are invalid. Whether evangelicals think illicit governments should be converted or destroyed is unclear and might depend on having a critical mass of Christians available to run the government. Because if not it is invalid. Evangelicals buy into nationalism because it's in the Bible. Tribes and nations appear, so they are part of God's plan but notice the interplay of power dynamics and Christian principles. My reading would be there's nothing supporting merging the Roman Empire with Christianity but it happened anyway. 

Who knows how evangelicals find what they find in the Bible. It seems selective and distorted to me. I say Christianity is not their worldview -- that they have another worldview and that their Christianity is subsumed to that. That worldview is a deranged, racist, uncompromised authoritarianism. Which is incompatible with Christianity and democracy and pretty much anything other than living in a shithole of violence, competition without rules, and basic barbarism. They're extreme Calvinists in that respect, and their most fundamental belief is that life and creation are shit.

Everything arises from that. So it's useless trying to understand who they are and what they're doing. They're insane. They simply must be stopped. Or, welcome to the shithole. The shithole isn't entirely bad. Mostly it's arbitrary as hell. No overall justice -- that's for the afterlife, where most of us are fucked. Kindness and decency exist, in pockets and places, but these are like theme parks, artificial environments cut off from the horrors of life for the enjoyment of the elect while they await rapture or the Second Coming or whatever, I think even they are unclear how that plays out.
