Steve , when you have the time check out this dialogue between me and a " liberal " New Atheism Cult groupie . My reply is in brackets below

Highlighted reply @mickdonedee1 4 hours ago You clearly care deeply about the direction of American politics and the distortion of Christianity for political ends — that passion is shared by many in Kristi's audience. That said, to truly resonate and persuade within this community, which values critical thinking, respectful discourse, and building bridges across divides, tone matters. If we sound as extreme as the forces we oppose, our message can get lost in the noise. Let me suggest a couple of changes to highlight my point: Instead of: "The FASCIST-ZIONIST New Regime " Consider: "The recent administration promoted an aggressive fusion of Christian nationalism and foreign policy that many find at odds with New Testament values." Instead of: "Christian Zionists foaming at the mouth for APOCALYPSE NOW " Consider: "Some Christian Zionists appear motivated by apocalyptic theology, which may escalate global tensions rather than pursue peace." These small changes open the door to dialogue, rather than closing it through harsh generalizations. To the substance of your critique on Christian Nationalism & Zionism: You're tapping into something real: Christian nationalism often masks deeper geopolitical agendas, including support for Zionist expansionism. While it's true that some in U.S. political spheres conflate loyalty to Israel with Christian duty, this doesn't represent all Christians — and certainly not the teachings of Jesus, who warned against aligning spiritual identity with imperial power. It's also important to distinguish Zionism as a diverse movement. There are: Secular Zionists focused on Jewish self-determination. Christian Zionists driven by end-times prophecy. And anti-Zionist Jews who critique state violence done in Judaism's name. Lumping these together under "ZIONIST Jew" language unfortunately echoes antisemitic tropes. That's not your intent, I'm sure — but language shapes perception. Kristi's channel challenges power structures without demonizing entire groups. Kristi's Community and channel is a space where: Christians, atheists, and everyone in between challenge authoritarian religion. Peaceful resistance is valued over culture war aggression. The goal is a pluralistic, inclusive democracy — not replacing one orthodoxy with another. You bring important concerns to the table. With more measured language and shared curiosity, your voice could go far in strengthening this community's mission: resisting fascism, defending pluralism, and keeping power accountable — without compromising our humanity. Keep engaging with curiosity rather than judgement. Reply @ronruggieri9817 0 seconds ago @mickdonedee1

 [Thank you for your thoughts. My language reflects my longtime independent democratic socialist background implacably opposed to capitalism, American imperialism , and Israeli Zionism. For years I have perceived ZERO concern with real SOCIAL evil in the New Atheism videos. While civility is also a plus I cannot adjust my tone to please WOKE WARRIOR " liberal " Democrats who never stop supporting capitalism , American imperialism , and Israel Zionism. Where did I ever get the impression that the New Atheism Cult groupies were a New Hate group ? Christianity , organized religion, and belief in God is the root of all the madness in the modern world ? Really ? I also consider myself a pre-Vatican II Catholic very much in touch with the spirit of the New Testament. DOMINUS VOBISCUM !
