"Protect their American freedoms and liberties" by taking away the freedom and liberty of anyone who doesn't submit to their religious tyranny.

Sometimes I wish William Golding had never written Lord of the Flies.
You think they've read it? It's probably on the ban list because rreasons.

Well they have to know how to read to misread and misquote the Bible! After all these guys are literalists.
Perhaps, but I also wonder if they might simply be 're-mouthing' what someone else said rather than reading at all. They do often have a propensity for misquoting misinformation from others.

That's because back then it was all in Latin and only the priests could read. Latin or otherwise. Controlling minds, regardless of the means, is the ultimate goal.

The insurrectionists' religiosity examined:


Also, an interesting archive of images and film of January 6, recording the participants' religious fervour -- UncivilReligion.org.

Religious symbols, rituals, identities, banners, signs, and sounds suffused the events surrounding the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. This project begins to trace the thread of religion that wound throughout that day through pieces of digital media. It does this in two ways. First, there is a collection of essays that analyze individual pieces of media from January 6 in order to explain the role religion played that day. Second, there is a series of galleries that contain pieces of media that represent the variety of ways religion "showed up" on January 6. This project is illustrative and not exhaustive. There is so much more to be found, said, and documented about the role of religion on January 6 and this project will continue to grow.
