The    same book and idol of Republican Paul Ryan and other    conservative Republicans? Ryan used to give the book away to    help people understand his devotion to selfishness and greed    and unfettered capitalism. But then he was confronted about    this and couldnt be so open about this love and quit    advocating the book and philosophy publicly.  <\/p>\n<p>    This philosophy apparently captured the Republican Party but is    now disguised. This new disguise  John Galt in Jesus raiment     seems to have completely fooled millions of Christians,    especially white evangelicals. How else do you explain that: 81    percent of white evangelicals voted for and continue to support    the most immoral, selfish, greedy and racist person to ever be    elected POTUS; white racists and white nationalists running our    country is perfectly fine; unbridled support for the military    and war is the real meaning of blessed are the peacemakers;    taking away health insurance for millions (for a tax cut for    the rich) is what Jesus said and an act of mercy;    eviscerating the safety net for millions  even the elderly and    food for children  is the best way to love and strengthen    them; reducing environmental regulations and further    endangering life on this planet is justified because its    really just a Chinese hoax and besides, Jesus is returning    soon.  <\/p>\n<p>    I am not sure how else to explain how the message of the    biblical Jesus is now the message of a blond-haired, blue-eyed,    caucasian American Jesus carrying an automatic weapon and    preaching the message of selfishness and greed.
