Many progressives prefer secularism. Those on the far left believe religion is the opiate of the masses.

Not to mention the enormous rift that abortion creates there too

“Acting nicer” isn’t the solution, embracing Christianity and its truths are the solution in much of the country

Disagree. You can pretty easily argue their support is mendable

You must not realize how many people identify with Christianity in the south don’t go to church and consider themselves apolitical. Those are the people we need to appeal to.

The problem is that there’s not really much of a consensus on what the “truths” of Christianity are. Plus, does that mean giving up on gay marriage? Abortion? What about separation of church and state? I mean how far are we really willing to take this?

No, it doesn’t. I grew up in the Mississippi delta. We struggle with addiction, poverty, unemployment, homelessness, and more. Many in our communities identify as Christian, but don’t attend church. Many of them don’t vote either, they feel the entire system doesn’t hear them and it’s broken. Those are the marginalized voices that we need to speak to. The homophobic, and pro life Christians are in many cases the higher ups in our communities, who live on a high horse while turning a blind eye to

That’s a Marxist belief, there’s not a genuine Marxist branch of the left in American politics

There are a lot of non marxists that are also anti religion in the U.S. Data proves it

The idea that left leaning politicians are hostile to Christianity is overwhelmingly just something manufactured by the right. The right tries to claim all their politics are their religion, and therefore any attack on their politics is an attack on their religion. Like ffs, the right wing press is currently trying to claim Talarico of all people is anti-Christian.

There are certainly progressive people who are anti-Christianity. But those aren’t the people running for office. Because in this country, non-religious people are subject to a lot of bigotry and because of that openly non-religious people struggle to get elected unless they are in very progressive regions.

but you do realize that there’s Christian nationalists colluding with (or outwardly are) white supremacists? Christianity, like all forms of faith, is an amazing individual structure and tool, but there are some people that are trying (and arguably succeeding sadly) to forcibly overhaul governmental structures in favor of theocracy. like you have a valid point, but imo the violent zealots are far more harmful than anti-theists (at least based on world events)
