When people tell you who they are, believe them.
When these guys say they want the political leaders, those they call the magistrates, to take property from certain churches and give them to other churches they approve of, believe they are the religious totalitarians they are saying they are.
When one guy says he wants the magistrate to silence someone else's freedom to speak, believe him.
When they say someone else must be silenced because that other person is speaking blasphemies, believe that they are saying exactly what they think should be done.
The truth is, this kind of Christian totalitarianism has been tried. It was tried for well over 1000 years. The Catholic church had this kind of power, and the Reformed churches had that kind of power. They persecuted others, including other Christians. They legally killed believers who disagreed with them. They made laws to silence others. They took property from those who disagreed with them.
It's been tried, and it failed. And assuming people like the men in this video should ever get the power they want, which I hope never happens, it will fail just as badly, if not worse.
