I disagree. I think America should be a nation for all religions. Also, i used race as another example of identity that is often used. It was just an example and wasn't trying to call you racist.
Why does this have to be a Christian nation? Seems like that goes against the core idea of supporting freedom of all religions.

There are those on the religious right who want Trump to put the pedal to the metal & accelerate the world toward Armageddon. There is no small amount of religious fanaticism at play in the US.

The problem is many don't understand what God really is. God is literally everything, which includes existence itself. According to the bible, God is everything, the beginning & the end, the Alpha & the Omega, above & below, etc.. Also, according to the bible we are all created in the image/likeness of God, just like Jesus. We're called human beings for a reason 'being' being the operative word, meaning exist. God is everything, including: Good/Evil, love/hate, light/dark, left/right, above/below, positive/negative, theism/atheism, etc. & none of these things can exist without one another. Its our free will to decide which path(s) we follow. Everytime one sees the word God, they should replace is with the word(s) exist, existence or being. This will give people a better understanding of what God actually is. If you don't believe in God you don't believe In existence, which is idiotic.

The problem isn't the immigrants. The problem is the white people who assume that every single Muslim is a terrorist sleeper cell. Where I live it is extremely multicultural and the only people who have an issue with it are white people. I've personally experience two mass migrations. Somalian refugees in the 90s and Syrian refugees currently. Nothing extraordinary happened except for the sudden rise of frothy mouthed racist white people claiming all sorts of nonsense that never happens.

I find this and evangelicals cringe worthy, creepy and cult like! I'm not anti God either, I come from a Catholic family, went to Church, went to Catholic School, pray every day of my life, But what always got to me is how they portray themselves and how they think of themselves, but then have this ugly nastiness about them, i've seen more empathy in a pebble than I have witnessed in a lot of religious folk in my life.
Coming from a catholic, a church that subjugated nations, empires and murdered many in Christ’s name, big call to bang on about evangelicals
Yeah, I was talking about both Catholics and Christians from the second line in my post. Might wanna pipe down
and put your glasses on before you jump to reply with your snide next time.
Why don’t you pipe up, apologise for the crimes of your church

So organized religion, cult like behaviour, concentrated power, wars and persecution in the guise of religion, worshiping and being falsely led by people because they are 'chosen' by or doing Gods work is bad? I agree that's why I no longer practice and my relationship with God is personal, as it should be.
Don't come at me with all the Catholic hate and act like the Evangelicals are all rainbows and unicorns, pathetic.

Don't be stupid!

Then you should read my post again before calling me stupid
I suggested that joining with these evangelicals, that mixing religion, any religion with politics was not a good idea
Nor Catholic or Protestant, you were the person moaning about how bad evangelicals are, I just pointed out your hypocrisy acting all righteous and arrogant when your church has mass murdered millions in political power
