Zealots and Evangelists

Within sleepy sheep folds of retributive divine justice postponed til kingdom comes and diva queens go to hell where we sinfully belong like all unfaithful ******* refusing to shuck and jive custody of 20/20 eyes and to disconnect bicameral ears, Discovering within these quiet unexamined folds remains an uncreative fundamental tension between evangelical healing justice and bad faith zealotry, Between good news of God's universal EarthLove and dark colonizing missionary zeal to overpower alien health and happiness, compassion and gratitude for global regenerate nature spiritual nondualism. Zealotry of StraightWhiteMale scriptural reconstructions in Western roots fed by colonization memories of overpowering violence. Evangelical multicultural good news roots are living watered by creolizing necessities, communal simplicity, non-elite sufficiency found in multiculturing non-violent domestic herstories, communication circles ecofeminist compassioned philosophies of ecologically green resonant theology, restorative win/win EarthJustice, permacultural health-system therapies. Zealotry is born of punishing bad faith in colonizing memories. Evangelism is born of healing good faith in polycultural creolizing visions. Zealotry is extrinsically LeftBrain dominant and anti-Christlike. Evangelism is intrinsically RightBrain prominent and EarthCreation healing. Which version of Christianity do you find supported by Republican StraightWhiteMale TrumpCards? How might this compare unfavorably to GreenDemocrat ecofeminist compassion therapy if you are more of a Gospel Health-Crusading Evangelical?
