Also yes I do think US Evangelism is its own entire religion. It’s a cult. They have basically nothing in common with Christs teachings

I’ve kinda noticed evangelicalism spreading its tentacles into other religions in the US, I grew up catholic and it feels like there’s a decent chunk of american “catholics” with weirdly evangelical beliefs nowadays. It’s like a plague

To be fair though, Christianity hasn’t really adhered to its founding concepts for a long long time. Even by the time of Paul you already had the shifting of social values to be more palatable under Rome. In my extremely unqualified opinion, you can’t really maintain the values of original Christianity well outside of small, localized communities. Anything bigger and politics starts rearing its head.

Just wish evangelicalism was more commonly acknowledged for being a literal cult
