Evangelicals are not Christians.
They’re Christofascists.
The cruelest and most self centered of all the Christian sects.
Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.
Ezekiel 16:49
James 5:1-6, NRSV
Come now, you rich people, weep and wail for the miseries that are coming to you. Your riches have rotted, and your clothes are moth-eaten. Your gold and silver have rusted, and their rust will be evidence against you, and it will eat your flesh like fire. You have laid up treasure during the last days. Listen! The wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, cry out, and the cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of hosts. You have lived on the earth in luxury and in pleasure; you have nourished your hearts in a day of slaughter. You have condemned and murdered the righteous one, who does not resist you.
Francis tried to be a decent person, but the organization he supports has an ungodly amount of money and outreach which aren’t being put to good use. Christianity could do so much more to help, they just choose not to.
I guess he wasn’t that bad…for a pope.
The dude lived on top of a pile of gold. Maybe we can also criticize the hypocrisy.

Disclaimer: not religious at all…but in all fairness to Pope Francis, he was a Jesuit, rejected living in the grand Papal apartment, and chose to live in a super simple 2 room apartment. The first pope to ever do so.
Every time I learn something new about him, I realize the Catholic Church must feel like they really fucked up by electing him.
Eh, he still fucking hated trans people. They kept their core values.
One step at a time…he was the most progressive pope ever…let’s keep it up!
