      The only context you need is that Christian evangelism supports the anti-christ; the physical embodiment of the seven deadly sins, and antithesis to the words of Jesus Christ.

      It’s worth reiterating. The context IS mental illness.

        Having know some evangelicals, it doesn’t hold any huge significance. They’ll lay hands on someone who has a broken arm to pray to God to heal it, so it’s not like this is a huge honor. Still weird, but this isn’t a sign of them idolizing him, especially compared to that golden goat statue with Trump’s face on $100 bills. The goat is literal blasphemy, but “laying hands” is just how evangelicals normally act…

          Being uncomfortably touchy on someone (sometimes against their will) and taking credit for something that’s obvious bullshit?

          … Yeah that tracks.

            Yeah, pretty much. I’m not saying it isn’t weird, and I’m also not saying they don’t idolize him, but this picture is just how evangelicals treat other evangelicals. Nothing scandalous or newsworthy, IMO.
