Why do far right Christian-Conservatives want to put Jesus in schools

[Pat Mustard]

Thing that really perplexes me is that christers seem completely oblivious to the toxic effect that politicizing their faith has had...on their faith.  They've become the usual suspects fed a neverending line of political bait that has the effect of gradually transforming them into evangelists for the gospel of St. Ronnie rather than anything recognizably "christian".  This can't be waived away, as many would and do, by claiming that the conservative issues which have somehow become synonymous with christian issues are a necessarry and unavoidable consequence of christian belief..because, ofc, another....admittedly smaller, demographic of christians took it in entirely the opposite direction in the same timeframe.

You forget that ever since its inception in 325CE christianity has ever been a political movement first an foremost. And it's main goal has always been to protect the poweful and keep the weak down.
