MAGA Christian Men are in the Closet

✝️🏳️‍🌈

Welcome to Holy Nonsense, where we laugh at religious absurdity!

Is there anything more insecure than a straight, white, American MAGA Christian?

That’s not rhetorical. I’m seriously wondering that.

As a guy who posts content that’s critical of Christianity… more specifically American Protestantism… more specifically Christian nationalism, my videos often end up on the wrong side of the algorithm.

See, I make videos for my fellow nonbelievers. People who are atheist, agnostic, or deconstructing their faith. Spiritual people are also welcome. Even progressive Christians are welcome.

I make videos to provide some levity in a world that’s incredibly heavy. My hopes are to generate some laughs, make posts that are relatable, and to create some community for those who don’t have it or maybe lost it when they left the church.

I love connecting with likeminded people, however, social media loves to say “Hmm… who would absolutely hate this video?” and then proceed to show it to them.

I get it. We live in an engagement world.

The more people comment on a post, the more it is shown to other people, and that gets you comments like these:

And that’s the premise for this video!

Every comment that I’m going to show you was made in the past week. This is an everyday occurrence for these people. I’ll save the juiciest one for the end.

Most of the comments I’ll be revealing were made on this video (well, on the Facebook version):

It really set them off.

Why is the first thought when they see another man a gay one?

Makes you wonder.

Mike wasn’t done:

Alex also thinks about penis.

This must be a Gen X thing. Like, sure, we called people gay as an insult in the 90s, but have these people not grown one iota since then?

Why does your brain go to gay?

Pretty wild, isn’t it? All from saying things that they don’t particularly like.

I feel bad for his dog, mainly.

Oh, man. He’s shirtless. He means business.

Also, he said it last week! I’m cooked.

Kurtis hit me with that double insult:

I’ve never said nor implied that everyone should become an atheist.

I think they tell on themselves with this stuff because they think everyone should be what they are.

Also, I’m not sure who Christian man boobs is.

Ah, I’m just joshing. I know that it’s just lack of a comma.

Eric went with a more classic approach.

What’s with all of these homophobic dudes using their poor dogs as profile pictures.

10 second break to show you a picture of my sweet Comet who passed away in August:

And him with his brother, Bowser, who left the world in 2019:

Now, back to the homophobia:

Donald Trump lives rent free, huh?

These people tell me all of the time how Donald Trump and Christianity live rent free in my head.

Do they know what rent free means?

It’s impossible to NOT think about those things when our President is tweeting about … sorry… Truthing about genocide at 3am and then saying that he’s created an anti Christian bias task force and implies that anyone who isn’t a Christian isn’t a true American.

That’s not rent free.

I’m truly not sure what Shawn is saying here:

The amount of people who still think that January 6th was some sort of Democrat plan against Trump is truly astounding.

Shawn, let’s see your search history.

Rick showing some of that Christian love:

The funniest thing to me is that they think I owe them a response on my own page.

My posts aren’t for you, babe.

Zing! Stick to wrestling, Bubba Ray.

There’s no doubt to me that they spend more time thinking gay thoughts than gay people do. It’s wild.

And we all know about the Grindr crashes during the RNC:

Nothing screams insecure like calling someone gay for disagreeing with your shitty theology.

Real meaning of MAGA unlocked?

What point do we think Henry is trying to make here?

Saying that Christian nationalism is a bad thing apparently makes your dad gay.

Kevin is implying that I’m gay and saying that he knows me because of my alleged husband?

Where do you know me from, Kevin? Crease?

I asked David if he’s going to make that his new bio.

The Homoly Grail: Homobama.

Yes, the Democrat party is the one led by Satan. We are in the Upside Down.

John John has a weird fantasy:

And now for the grand finale.

I was laughing so hard. Why is Sam thinking of the Spider-Man kiss?

My goal is to quit my freelancing podcast editing services so that I can create better content to fight Christian nationalism. Every person who becomes a paid subscriber gets me closer to that goal. Are you in?

Remember: you don’t need a god to be good!!
