Fox and Religion?

I browsed past Fox on the television a couple of nights ago just long enough to hear what seemed to be a typical religious station's talk.
All about our country being a Christian nation founded on Christian principals.
So, is Fox going all out to support religion now? What's happening?

Dominion voting is coming after their bank accounts soon...

And perhaps, maybe, some of their advertizers are fleeing their Fascist ship in droves??

that perhaps it would be nice to mention God somewhere in it. God was voted down. Washington sent a letter to a synagogue stating that they were free to practice their religion and not in any way at the suffrance or discretion of Christians. Jefferson's first treaty was with a Moslem nation and he expressed the hope that Moslems would feel welcome to practice their faith in this country.

Outside of that, I don't see anything in the Constitution that couldn't have been arrived at from an independent, epistemological path. So, they can take credit for that one foundational block.

in this country that they have formed under a new name...the NAR, did you know that? They are now the National Apostolic Reformation (NAR) They include all the Evangelical cults plus several of the Baptists and the unaffiliated cults out there (think Jim Jones type "churches&quot . Basically evangelicals and charismatics. These guys totally want the U.S. to be an American version of Iran. A complete 100% theocracy with themselves at the helm.

They've been working towards this for decades. They used to known as the Dominionists. But as their name, as well as their game, became better known, they knew they had to change what they were known by, ally with those who were close to their own milestones, and call it "good." That way, maybe they could fool enough of the public to push stuff through. Align with the Republican party and with the Trump/Maga party and call Trump God Almighty and they can get the power they need to head the 7 Mountains they've always pushed to attain. Once they have hold of these 7 Mountains they control the United States. Note: They almost control all of them. They have the Media; they all but have the Government. They have the schools now. Look up how close they are to the rest of what they want to achieve, and you'll see how close to a theocracy we actually are. It'll scare the daylights out of you!
