Thank you, thank you, thank you! I have been shouting this from the rooftops. In the U.S., Christian Zionism and Christian nationalism go hand in hand. They are ideologies of power and individual prosperity, and have little to do with the actual teachings of Christ. I'm a Christian too, and I am angry that Christ has been so misused.

Truly, I had no idea that Christian Zionism was a thing a 7 months ago. To be truthful, I didn't have a fulsome understanding of Zionism st all. Thank for this article.

You're welcome. And needless to say, you're not alone! So many did not and that's by design. So glad you're learning about it now and can help spread the word to others.

I grew up with this programming and have been unlearning/de-programming for 25+ years. Such a violent, harmful, deeply sick ideology, and I agree we need to talk about it and it’s massive influence more, hopefully so more people will wake up and see and change. Thank you for sharing your experience and these important truths.

My pleasure, Beth! I couldn't agree with you more ~ in order to unearth it's power we must continue to educate/learn/talk about it! Thank you for reading and the work you've been doing for years!

“The ‘God’ of Christian Zionism acts like a racist real estate agent that has the authority to assign and acquire land based on ethnicity. A God who erases Palestinian existence altogether. A God of domination and control.” Incredible piece.

I have learned so much since Oct. 7th. I am not a religious person but I´m curious and also did a deep dive into Zionism and its´ history. I very much admire the Jewish people who are speaking out against Zionism and for a free Palestine.

I agree Karen. So much gratitude and respect for our Jewish siblings who continue to put their bodies/voices on the line in solidarity. Only way toward a free world + liberation is together! ✊🏾

As a Catholic, I question so many things about the church, but never anything about what we were taught about Israel. I am pretty sure that if the Jesus we speak of came back today would rapture the Palestinians, not those of us aiding their genocide.
