The idea that this guy is being treated as an authority on Christianity is just absurd. He is re-framing what it means to be Christian for his own ends, and it should be obvious.
This guy worked directly with the CIA and an Iran-Contra criminal to privatize the most Orwellian Bush-era surveillance proposal, creating Palantir in the process, wants to tear down representative government and replace it with a private company run by a CEO/dictator, promotes borgifying humanity and frames it as necessary, and funds and helped create numerous companies that help commit genocide and blow children to smithereens. He embodies the opposite of what are ostensibly Christian values. Let him redefine what it means to be "Christian" at your own risk.
Also, no one would even consider calling this guy "Christian," let alone an authority on it, a few decades ago. But now the PayPal mafia bros largely control the digital realms that now dominate public discourse and have successful bought up a legion of podcasters/influencers, so they can make a large segment of the public believe whatever they want I guess.
In today's world, Emperor Palpatine could also probably successfully frame himself as a well-meaning authority on who and who isn't a baddie.
@ShadowofEzra Trump has lost me and a lot of other people who were really excited when he was elected. He’s definitely done some positive things but at this point the negative far outweighs the positives.
@ShadowofEzra@marklevinshow He Mark explain to me why the US Government should spend my tax dollars to permanently defend Israel? We The People would like to know!
