Evangelicals and Covid

Are you ready for this pandemic to be over? Anti-maskers and anti-vaxxers need to go ahead and just admit they want it to continue indefinitely. They might as well admit it, because we ALL already know. They refuse to do the bare minimum- they refuse to social distance, refuse to wash their damn hands, refuse to get vaccinated, and throw tantrums in public over masks. They're nasty germ-factories, spreading disease everywhere they go.  

The overwhelming majority of anti-maskers are evangelical "Christians." We hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the bible they claim to follow talks about wearing masks when you have a communicable disease (covering the bottom part of their face with cloth) and social distancing (living outside camps) and letting everyone around them know they're diseased. They're instructed to shout "UNCLEAN! UNCLEAN!" whenever someone comes near them. 

Any pastor who tells their congregation that masks are demonic, or the vaccine is the "mark of the beast" is a delusional sociopath. They are directly putting people in harm's way, and they don't care. It's unconscionable, and they are DIRECTLY responsible for everyone who dies because of their false teachings. 

Something is wrong with those people. They're the epitome of evil. How can someone claim to follow Jesus- who, according to the Christian bible, had a radically liberal message of love, who came to break people free from the bondage of religion, who hung out with thieves and prostitutes, who comforted the oppressed, the marginalized, the sick... all people whom modern-day evangelicals despise. The Jesus they claim to follow said to love your neighbor as you love yourself, the second greatest commandment of the Christian bible, and evangelicals can't even do that.

For people who are supposedly tasked to "go out into the world and spread the gospel" (Supposedly, because the bible explicitly prohibits proselytizing, but of course they cherry pick and conveniently ignore that), they're failing the assignment. Getting evangelicals to care about other people is like pulling teeth.

To be clear, there are a few evangelicals who aren't horrible people, but the vast majority aren't good. Progressive Christians aren't full of this vile hate. It's evangelicals (and conservative Christians in general) who tend to be toxic, abusive, and full of hate.

Covid, and their refusal to do the bare minimum to keep people safe, isn't how you win people over to your religion. They've done nothing but stomp on everyone while demanding their rights and "freedumbs." Since they can't understand how we can't get past this this pandemic until they do the bare minimum, let's tell them in some funny, beautifully designed t-shirts.
