They only care about Israel because they think it needs to exist for their end times prophecy to happen. They don't give a fuck about, or even like, Jewish people.
First of all, our foundation is many religions and not just Judaism. Granted, the Old Testament is basically all Jewish but we also stole from Pagans, Hinduism, possibly Egyptian even with the mother and son depiction as holy, and plenty of others. Modern Christian saviors are more like rich, white men with questionable to no morals. The key factor of modern Christianity is pretending we came up with everything good and therefore, are superior to everyone else. I say, “we,” but I’m agnostic now
I mean, sorry to break it to you, but the US was *ABSOLUTELY* built on christianity. Nail by horrifying nail, it was built on the beliefs and dogma and sins and atrocities of christianity. Christian beliefs were behind the genocide of the indigenous people and the spread of the US westward, and has informed major policy decisions for as long as the government has existed, if not directly then by virtue of the fact that most of our value systems and viewpoints are derived from christian ones.
This doesn't even make sense. Christianity is predicated on the idea that Judaism is wrong (or at the least incomplete), and needed reforming.
Physicists don't hold on to the concept of Luminiferous Ether because there is now a better system of understanding availability (the wave-particle nature of light).
This is probably a me problem, because I just don't understand the fundamentalist mindset.
Based on the one screen grab provided it seems to imply that they themselves believe that the USA is supported by and currently dependent on Christianity; Christianity is supported by and currently dependent on Christ; and Christ is supported by and currently dependent on Judasim.
They used a pyramid and not some linear devolution diagram. The implication of the graphic is that "Without Judaism, the USA would disappear."

Isaiah 43:11 "I, even I, am the Lord, and besides me there is no savior"
So basically, Newsmax is committing christian sacrilege.

The rapture won't happen until all the jews are back in Isreal or am I repeating nonsense. Lmk.

Yeah, all Jews go to hell in Christianity...sorry.

I think, if you look closely, Bronze Age Greek philosophy and medieval Arab math are the foundation of Western civilization.

In both cases, they just posted it. It was the comments section that brought it to the Front Page.

OG patriarchal corporatist Akkadians laid the foundations

Humanism, the effects of the reformation, science, and the enlightenment are the foundation of Western civilization

But then why would the Jews kill Jesus!?

Using religion to make genocide seem OK

As is tradition.

Using religion for its original and intended purpose.

It's a well established formula. Practically flawless.

USA is the fucking peak? JFC

13.8 billion years since the big bang and we peaked at a semi-flaccid mushroom being eagerly pushed into an 11 year old Ivanka

And the United States is above your commitment to Christ. Love how Christians don’t even know what their Bible says.
FrozenSTi
It's their first damn commandment. Would they have USA on top if the democrats were running the show? It's flabbergasting

It doesn't make sense because it's both propaganda and bad theology.
mrthewhitee
Evangelicals believe we are living in the end times and that in order for the rapture to happen the Jews must control Israel.
Once they do God is supposed to come down and basically smite anyone who rejects Jesus and bring all the Christians to heaven.

Fine. Then say THAT.

Well they aren't gonna outright say that their sky fairy needs to genocide the Jewish people for them to get to the promised land.
They have to lie to get the normies on board with their death cult.
