They wre the last group that remembers an America that followed God's will

IE, no abortion, homosexuals in the closet, women knew and accepted that they were subordinate, ie 2nd class citizens

So baby-boomers will help T force America 'back to god'

When protestant "Christians" dictated what was "moral" and what wasn't, and had an iron grip on power and wealth.

that time as one where girls weren't allowed to play sports, black people weren't allowed to go to state universities, and homosexuals were persecuted.

And yes, back then we were told those were all "God's will." This doubtlessly helped make the baby boom leave churches in droves.

What a horror show, really, that they point to Trump and say that he's God's choice. What sort of God do they worship?

I absolutely hate it when anyone puts a whole generation in a "class" of what we do and don't do.

Fuck Trump. And fuck stupid fake Christians trying to weasel insecure people out of money.
