    I don't understand why Texas voters support such inhumane conditions. All these "Christians" who support this kind of cruel punishment need to have a "come to Jesus" moment, literally.

      These are Nationalist Christians (Nat-C’s), not actual followers of Jesus.

        Just because these people don't worship or believe the same things as your sect of christianity does not stop them from believing in the teachings of Christ. They just don't agree with you while holding positions of power.

        Prosperity gospel is a real thing too, also the fastest sect of christianity growing in the world.

          Just because people don't follow the teachings of Christ doesn't mean they don't believe in the teachings of Christ? Hey, what did Jesus have to say about hypocrites?

          Which goes to show you the state of Christianity today. Pretty sad.
