What A Miserable Zombie Jesus Day

Christian Nationalists refuse to believe in the reality of transgender identity... ...but they're right on board with the literal belief that the US government should be run according to the whims of a two thousand year-old zombie because a woman once ate a piece of fruit.

These are the people who are now in charge of the US federal government.

Is it any wonder the United States of America is falling apart at the seams?

I would say "Happy Zombie Jesus Day", but it's not at all happy, because the devotees of Zombie Jesus are waging a real war that is killing real people and burning through billions of dollars that could have been used to solve real problems.

The truth is it's a miserable Zombie Jesus Day.

Every day under Christian Nationalism is a nightmare.

Christian Nationalists accuse their opponents of being in league with demons, or even of actually being demons. Demons aren’t real, of course. They’re just folklore.

Just so, the zombie Jesus is not real. He’s just folklore. We’re not afraid that Jesus is really going to come back from the dead and eat our brains, or establish Christianity’s terrifying Kingdom of God with its global war and religious torture campaigns. All of that stuff is just folklore.

What’s real is the impact of Christian Nationalists’ belief in that folklore. It makes them try to impose that monstrous folklore in earthly form.
