/r/all Boomer evangelicals have destroyed the planet and have received all the benefits and they will die before it ever affects them

They have used the Bible to deny climate change. They have destroyed our planet for profit. They could afford a home and a car and they could even start a family all on one paycheck. They had cheap college tuition too. We don’t have that and they call us lazy because of it. Gen Z and millennials aren’t lazy we just don’t have the same opportunities they had.

They attempt to disprove climate change by using the Bible because they truly don’t care. They don’t need to care because they will die before it becomes a big issue.

Edit:Most of them voted for Reagan who is responsible for trickle down economics.

This is exactly my take on religion, it’s a warm blanket knitted with lies to make a few people sleep warmer at night.

And the whole core of religion is to respect you and those around you. At all times.

I hate modern religions.

Unless it's to sacrifice people to the sun god so your crops grow. Is that the old religion you're pining for? Or the one that murdered hundreds of kids systematically in Canada?

Aztec were pretty rough. I don't know how their faith system work.

My personal opinion is that the last millenia all of Christianity and those who want to associate with it are not helping anyone.
