[Disclaimer] - I am not an American and I consider myself atheist, I am Caucasian and born in a pre-dominantly Christian country.

Based on my limited knowledge of Christianity, it is all about social justice, compassion and peace.

And I was always wondering how come Republicans are perceiving themselves as devout Christians while the political party they support is openly opposing those virtues and if this doesn’t make them hypocrites?

For them the mortal enemy are the lefties who are all about social justice, helping the vulnerable and the not so fortunate and peace.

Christianity sounds to me a lot more like socialist utopia.

      The OP asked why one side tends to seem stereotypically flaunty with devotion to God while the other side is associated more with actual compassionate work, and I pointed out it’s not an opposites thing and that both observations are all over the place, and the reply to that was “well isn’t that because of peer pressure”, to which I was implying doesn’t change what I was saying.
