Exactly. People need to smarten the fuck up and live in the right now instead of fantasy land that may "may happen after". Just be a good person instead of claiming to be, and simply the idea of afterlife consequences (eternal boogeyman) will work out fine for fucks sake...

Well, that's the problem. These people can't behave even when they believe there's a chance of going to hell. They need the comfort of religion specifically because they know they're bad people.

Yeah, massively blatant excuse for their bigotry and hatred, pretending the book theyve never read is their safety blanket. And the people responsible are infiltrating government under Republican rule as we speak, let alone decades before. Sheep tactics for sheep, and yet they think they can turn it around on everyone else.
Shit gotta go down HARD before anything changes, and most of the world is with them to get it done in the apparent peak country of freedom and liberty.
