      So, yeah. Regular Christians -- Orthodox, Catholic, mainline -- can raise a fit about how this action will undermine world peace. But that doesn't matter. Because peace in this world doesn't matter.

      What matters is that Jesus comes back in Judgement. To these sorts of Christians, that Judgment is the only true peace. Everything is phony, deceptive, even evil.

      Millions of American Christians believe all this. Millions of Trump voters. Sacred history is unfolding right now because of Donald Trump and God.

      They've based their faith, their identity, their purpose, their eternal lives on these ideas. Trust me. There's no arguing with any of it.

      Because God. Because of their understanding of God's Word. Say what you like, trot out all the popes, patriarchs, and mainstream theologians you want, but it won't make one wit of difference.

      In their minds, we've arrived at the big show. The End is Near. (Why they need more SCOTUS justices if this is the case, I'm not sure. But, hey, religion and logical consistency don't usually go together).

      I first learned all this in Wednesday night Bible study at Scottsdale Bible Church when I was 15 years old. Yes. This is taught -- in excruciating detail -- to children and teens.

      Many evangelical colleges actually challenge it, but the depth and extent of these ideas on American evangelicalism is unquantifiable.

      And those evangelicals who challenge these ideas are -- eventually -- pushed out of the subculture, make accommodations, look the other way, or leave.

      I've long suspected that this end times fixation is one of the drivers of younger evangelicals leaving church -- and the growth of the "nones." It is powerful stuff, a worldview that is profoundly difficult to challenge.

      Replying to @dianabutlerbass

      I’m not sure about this. Many young men have revolutionary and messianic tendencies that encourage apocalyptic thinking even among non-Christians.
