Forward Progressives — Conservatives: You’re Not ‘Speaking for God,’ You’re Speaking for Yourselves and Your Egos
This belief carried by many of them that for some reason God favors Americans over all others is absurd.
Why would God favor Americans over other countries with large Christian populations? Because we have freedom? I hate to break it to these people, but we’re not the only free country on the planet.
Honestly, what is it about the United States that would make these people think we’re something special as it relates to the Christian religion?
We’re a nation that was built on slavery then expanded through genocide, war and countless other atrocities. But something like gay marriage will be the tipping point where God says, “Okay, that’s just going too far.”
Seriously?
The reality is, these people aren’t speaking for any God—they’re speaking for themselves.
Think about the onslaught of mega churches we’re seeing in this country. Rich religious leaders. How the hell does that even happen? These people are making millions — hoarding millions, at that - selling their teachings. They build giant churches not for God, but for their own egos.
