The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

Cut and pasted:
Christian nationalism is a white supremacist political ideology masquerading as religion.
Right...the black converted Catholic (Thomas) is leading the conspiracy to turn the US into a white supremacist evangelical theocracy.
Spot the logical flaws....
White Supremacists are Christian Nationalists.
Chirstian Nationalists tend to prefer conservative policies.
Conservative policies are the manifestation of/facilitate white supremacy.
Hilarious.
Dude, I'll join you in not wanting a theocracy. But there's nothing inherently racist about Christianity, just the opposite; a fundamental tenant is we are all created in God's image. And no church is established because politicians allow their faith to inform their actions. Every politician, religious or not, leans on their moral presuppositions to help guide decisionmaking. And in the US, their power is constrained by the constitution, there is no religious test that correlates with which Americans think the constitution is past is sell by date.
And "non-Christianity" doesn't have a track record that provides sanctuary from tyrrany. Consider the atheist communist and the occultist Nazi. People looking to politics to fill God-sized holes are kinda dangerous, too, y'know?
Note that above Chef Boi RD copy-n-pasted 95% of the opinion article by Robin Abcarian, yet omitted this part:
A February Pew Research Center poll found that less than half of U.S. adults said they had ever heard or read anything about Christian nationalism. “Most Republicans,” Pew reported, “say they have never heard of Christian nationalism.”
Title of this opinion piece: "The once-secretive right-wing ideology emerging as an overt threat to American democracy"

Deep dive socialwbez rumour boyz have "confirmed" Biden stepping down as Dem nominee as early as this weekend.
By all accounts Kamala should prove moments of mirth of her own from time to time.

For the better, obviously. Wouldn’t be surprised if he’s found out to be in the early stages of Lewy Body Dementia or something. He ain’t right.
