Opposition to the genocide in Palestinian and the treatment of immigrants in the United States that has the potential to turn into a genocide is massively influential considering the churches reach and the powerful corrupt forces at play here
It is massively influential, it does not seem to be taking precedence over the massively influential right wing forces controlling most of American Catholicism leadership anyway. I say right wing, that is really kind of labeling it. This right and left is meaningless when we aren’t measuring from a real place in reality. They are in service to malign interests, some of the most wealthy interests in the country.
Evangelicals are like 30% of the Republican base as well. And I guess that is not even counting like Baptists and other related ones. I’m not sure if Calvinists count as Evangelical. But yes, their worldview is so fucked, they want bad shit to happen, especially in the Middle East in israel, to bring on the rapture which will end the world in lakes of blood and Fire.
I’m not really religious but come from a southern Methodist and Catholic background on the two sides and from what I understand these evangelicals have 0 chance of ascending to heaven because not only do they fully and completely reject the teachings of Jesus they rabidly support a man who very closely resembles the Antichrist in their own book
But I think that what we’re really dealing with here is religious extremism and fundamentalism is bad in any form and destructive as hell when mixed with settler colonialist ideology
