My name is Courtney Swann and I know this website is where most of Trump's support comes from so I have this message for all of you.
I am sick and tired of seeing hatred, bigotry, racism, Xenophobia, homophobia, sexism, white supremacy, and countless other horrendous acts being carried out in the name of Christianity.
I am exhausted with being criticized and faulted and frowned upon for identifying myself with the same belief system as millions of hateful, shameful, pardon my language but quite frankly asshole Americans.
The Trump-supporting Christians who think that expressing their faith means standing behind an idiotic, lie-spewing, hate-breeding man in the American election.
The Christian patriots who insist that all refugees are terrorists and show no sympathy, love, or even one single care to the millions of displaced people— mothers, fathers, children, infants— around the world.
The 87% of evangelical Christians who do not believe that black lives matter.
The conservative Christian tow truck drivers who leave disabled Bernie Sanders supporters stranded because they’re “obviously socialists.”
The believers who place white American supremacy, exceptionalism, and chosenness over, oh, I don’t know… reading their Bibles and actually understanding one single FREAKING thing it even says.
Find me one scripture that states that white people > black people. That rich > poor. That American > every other nationality. That Republican > Democrat. Because the way that hundreds of thousands of Christians speak and act, it almost seems as if they must be reading a completely different Bible than the rest of us Christians.
