They also love to claim to be Christian while deliberately doing things Christ taught NOT to do.

This is standard Christian behavior. It's Christian to be un-Christian. I'm 48 and grew up in the church. Left burning bridges at 16-17.

I grew up in a church. Then in 20s began to think more for myself. Realized their political views were not lined up with Jesus teaching. Called people out for it. Got nothing but arguments and no one really listened despite pointing out obvious contradictions to what Jesus said. They pick and choose scripture and most of it isn't from Jesus because, let's face it, he was too liberal for them.

Seriously. If Jesus himself was running for office, they would put out attack ads against him.

Absolutely they would.

They'd call him a socialist lib with crazy new ideas and advocate violence against him. So, same as those who hated him in the Bible, but all while saying they worship him somehow.
