Dumb and Christendumber - Part I: The Long Hangover of the Civil War
Send us a text
This is the first in a three part series exploring how the United States got to the current multi-faceted crisis.
In Part I, we discuss how most of the moral and theological questions leading to the Civil War never really got resolved and have now come roaring back like a virus that's mutated into a stronger strain.
In Part II, we'll look at the rise of Christian Nationalism and how myths of Christian America mix with Christian Reconstructionism to create the toxic concoction that is dismantling democratic institutions.
In Part III, we'll try explain the concerted attack on the concept of empathy (led particularly by Christian Nationalists) and why that is...hoo boy...so dumb.
Our Bible Passage We Wish Literalists Would Take Literally for Episode 2 is
I Timothy 6, vss 9-10.
