    Weird American twist in Protestant Christianity and its odd political beliefs that are counter to biblical teachings are losing traction. Orthodox church attendance is growing. When you follow a belief like the actual bible says to pray for, feed, and support people not bomb/judge them, it isn’t a surprise that people are drawn to that. Sadly it isn’t as well known in the states and most see Christianity as something like Mike Pense/Biden/Trump/Fox News. I don’t personally believe Christ knows any of them, especially as they espouse and support the killing of Christians in Palestine (I also do not believe Christ would support killing Muslims or any of his children. He seems pretty clear on that).
