Perhaps Trumpcult and Arab states are worried about a divine, authoritarian state giving way to democracy?

No, didn't get to it yet. But I'm afraid I do find the 'telleres' aren't really that interested in human personhood, its vulnerabilities, its faith journey. They're more interested in spiritual policing.
Forgive me, a generalisation, I know, born mostly out of hard experience. Nice to exchange.

Does 'evangelism' mean fundamentalism ?
Look what the 'evangelicals' have done to / for the United States?
Why not some Applied Christianity?

Basically, is it not bible-anity, not christianity.
The wonderful philosopher, sage and christian John Moriarty, said that the bible was used down the ages as a bulwark against the christian message.

Fundamentalist, bible-anity pastors are the Mullahs of the USA and they too have a Supreme Leader.
Just a question of degree and divine opportunity.

MAGA Evangelicals Expect The Israel/Iran Conflict To Bring About The End Times The evangelicals in Trump's MAGA coalition are urging him to support Israel in its war with Iran in anticipation that it will bring about the End Times and the return of Jesus Christ.

Just a reminder that electing a president surrounded by people clamoring for the End Times might have been a bad idea. www.peoplefor.org/rightwingwat...

Headline from Telegraph β€œFarage accuses Muslim voters of cheating to elect Greens.”

It really is a hate-rag.

From over here, re. the Gorden & Denton by-election:
it seems that there's a whole swathe of people in England who find democracy really irritating.

I wonder is there an anthology of Old Testament, Gospel, Pauline quotes that mess with the heads of fundanentalist, bible-anity, evangelical folk. If not, there should be.
Always satisfying to point out that, according to Jesus, it all boils down to 2 commandments; the rest is tribal cant.

No @telegraph.co.uk this isn’t the story. Children were being trafficked and raped. The people want to know by who. The information is out there, go find it and report it. We are not interested in what was in his sock drawer ffs
