    Try Mormonism. They somehow save the dead.

    Not sure how that works, but redeeming S&H Green Stamps just popped into my mind.

    Catholics and Protestants. Confess your sins, ask for absolution. Accept Jesus Christ as your lords and savior and all your sins are wiped away.
    Want to own slaves, Jesus has no objection. Want to marry a 13 year old girl? Mary was an early teenager. Is there a sin that can’t be wiped out?

    Christianity supported slavery. Christianity supported concentration camps. Racism is a Christian concept. Ask a Native American between 1492 and 1792? Convert or be killed or exiled.

    Bleach does work on stupidity though.

    I live in the Bible Belt. Most hard core Bible thumpers around here curse Jews and Muslims while conveniently eschewing the teachings of Jesus Christ while embracing the parts of the Old Testament they like.
    They're all about certain parts of Leviticus while planting gardens and eating ham biscuits.

    I often have some fun with them when they say the only way to get into heaven is through accepting Christ.

    I ask them if they believe there is a soul at conception. They always say yes.

    I then point put that roughly half of conceived embryos, supposedly with souls, never attach to the uterus and are instantly miscarried. I also ask them about other later miscarriages, and babies who are briefly born and then die, and ask if they got into heaven even though they never got to accept Jesus.

    This puts them in a tough spot. Either the miscarriages, stillborns and briefly alive don’t get into heaven, which means Jesus has some deep-seated issues he needs to work out, or they do get into heaven, which mean that there are loopholes other than acceptance of Jesus and then how do we know there are not other loopholes?

    Typically by then, they’re calling me Satan.

    The older that I get, the more cynical I am of organized religion. The pro-Trump evangelicals have no monopoly for my scorn but they certainly are the most recently odious
