Pretty sure this has more to do with the fact that the current GOP has one Kristi Noem that killed her dog because it annoyed her. Try to keep up.

Woof, you're really really intellectually dishonest. It was attempted diplomacy that fell apart. Obama sucked ass, but for reasons unrelated to Russia.
Missionaries are supposed to exemplify everything about a religion, so they can spread it. The two things are so intertwined, they can easily be conflated.
The end goal is ban all organized religion. Religion is a personal choice, and should never be used to determine what others not practicing it are allowed to do. Talking about religion is fine, practicing yourself is fine, creating institutions based off of it is not.
Obviously telling others what they can and can't do or sowing violence while using your religion as justification is bad.
Yet that's every single religion. So yes, toss the baby with the bathwater.
But even the bible says that spirituality should be practiced in private.
It also says the exact opposite.
"Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you. And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age" (Matthew 28:19-20)
I'm sorry you feel that way. You're just wrong, though. Religion is cancer, and should be treated as such. Private spirituality is fine, but once you start saying what others are allowed to do based off of your religious upbringing, it's literally just fascism with an imaginary friend as the leader.
And that's how you know exactly who that idiot voted for. Now he's getting the day he asked for, and it's no longer fun.
Reductive? Maybe. Accurate? Certainly.
The point is- this person's brain was primed with indoctrination already. He just swapped gods. Religion is a sickness, and he is a great example of how bad that sickness can get.
That Headline is a fucking roller coaster.
Fair enough- as an American, this just seems like it is... ill-advised... at the least.
Apparently she's really stupid, if this is anything to go off of.
You're making the assumption that this won't just disappear, and he won't be working again next month. I wish I had that confidence.
Moderates think that "both sides" have good points, but should meet in the middle. They work with whoever guarantees comfort and power. They poison society.
