re: #166 Decatur Deb

Really starting to believe that the difference between the displaced dude who hoards guns and the dude who builds Habitat houses is laid down somewhere before grades 1-3.

Starts there but get’s reinforced by what he hears - or doesn’t hear - on Sunday’s I think. How many preachers emphasize 1 Tim chapter 2 promoting keeping women in their place vs chapter 6 saying that riches, especially eagerness to gain them, are a trap? There are other even less subtle manipulations that occur in all churches (saying this as a believer, I’ll add) to direct people’s behaviors. Non-church entities using religious sounding language (I’ma looking at you Faux News) is perhaps the least subtle & most effective manipulation of them all.
