I didn’t say that every Christian is a Zionist. I linked to a statistic that shows that the overwhelming majority of evangelicals are Zionists because they believe the Jews need to be slaughtered in the holy land to bring back the messiah.
It’s entirely possible for you to be the kind of non-evangelical, Christian “political” Zionist that this doesn’t apply to. But that doesn’t change the statistic, and it doesn’t change Musk’s audience.
- kcplate 3y agoYour original post didn’t specify evangelicals, you used the phrase “christian eschatologists” and defined it much too broadly which is what I am commenting on. Perhaps you meant “evangelicals” and used the wrong word. Perhaps it was intentional and you simply misunderstood the difference. Either way I wanted to provide context against the generalization/stereotype your post created.
- pauldenton 3y agoIf they wanted Israelis to be slaughtered wouldn't you be hearing evangelicals saying we need to cut all military aid to Israel, and wouldn't we see these Evangelicals teaming up with left wing progressives who also want to cut military support and Arms shipments to Israel?
- kcplate 3y agoI suspect that the commenter believes that by having a futurist end times belief that contains a prophecy predicting a Jewish slaughter to motivate conversion of the remnant Jews to be fulfilled as a stepping stone for their desire for a new heaven and new earth amounts to anti-semitism.
