I don't think I've seen crazier Christians than the ones in US.
There are some pretty hardcore Filipinos.

Crucifixion in the Philippines is a devotional practice held every Good Friday, and is part of the local observance of Holy Week. Devotees or penitents called magdarame in Kapampangan willingly have themselves crucified to reenact Jesus Christ's suffering and death, while related practices include carrying wooden crosses, crawling on rough pavement, and self-flagellation. Penitents consider these acts to be mortification of the flesh, and undertake these to ask forgiveness for sins, to fulfil a panatà (Filipino, "vow"), or to express gratitude for favours granted. In the most famous case, Ruben Enaje drives four-inch nails into both hands and feet and then he is lifted on a wooden cross for around five minutes.[1]
At least they keep that to themselves.
Thats gotta hurt pretty badly holy shit
Yeah...I don't know how long it takes for everyone, but another example:
Gilbert Bargayo – crucified for the 15th time in Carcar, Cebu, and for the 17th time in Barangay Duljo-Fatima, Cebu City in 2012. Six-inch nails pierced his palms and feet, and took 45 minutes to all be hammered in.[21]
I'm just kinda imagining someone taking 45 minutes to finish hammering nails through my appendages.
It was engineered in the 1930's i keeping telling people to look into James W. Fifield Jr him with National Organization of Manufacturers (NAM) that put capitalism above Jesus in American Christianity. They did this becase churches pushing socialist community programs and collective bargaining. scared the hell out of robber barons liked JP Morgan and Joseph Pew. There is a unbroken line between Fifield and the people behind trump.
Southern Christians were the most socialist, they had huey long, and the south was dead poor and without electricity till the new deal and tva.
But lbj made them choose between their religion and their racism, and that was no choice.
That's unfair, the southern baptist convention was formed because the triennial convention wasn't explicitly pro-slaveey enough, so they kept their religion, just without all that icky "caring for your fellow man" garbage.
