Jimmy Carter has articulated a progressive strand of American Christianity that championed kindness, social justice, racial equality, and women's rights — ideals that are mocked by Evangelical Christians today.

Honestly, the questions about the Christianity of Republicans and MAGA Evangelicals aren't hard. These are people who take food FROM the poor, refuse refugees or asylum, succor the rich, hate strangers, and seemingly worship an idol.

Unless I'm missing something.

The problem isn't Christianity. I know many incredibly generous, kind, and oddly modest Christians. Can I call them "Godly?" Similarly for many Jews, Muslims, Hindus, Sikhs, and more in my life.

I'm an atheist, but religion isn't the problem. It's that Evangelicals have become closet Qanon goons.

Not missing a thing. That's the point of the article. Jimmy Carter's Christian views of being a force for good in the world, are no longer part of Christians today. Religion to help has turned to Religion of hate. Like other religions that have been taken over by religious radicals.

I am an atheist, but I sometimes find myself fighting with other atheists online who strongly believe that all religion is always a problem for society. Sometimes religion can be a positive force. I think of Jimmy & Roslyn Carter as good examples of religion's positive force.
