What I've Learned from Donald Trump

You can behave any way you wish as long as what you believe is what is accepted by the Conservative Church.  This is what I have learned from Trump.  And Conservative Christianity is Xenophobic.  It’s not just Muslims.  It’s anyone who isn’t WASP.  This has been true since I was a kid.  Donald Trump grew up with that teaching.  He understands it perfectly.  If you have WASP values, it matters not how you live your life because you understand the Grace of God in regard to YOUR sins.  This is really all there is to it.  Look at how Donald Trump has behaved and it matters not to the WASP Church because he has their values.  He’s one of them regardless of HOW he behaves.  He has their values.  And WASP America isn’t all about wealth.  WASP’s think Donald Trump is one of them, so he will look out for their interests.  They don’t care about his behavior, so they don’t care about Russian involvement, because he’s one of them.  Donald Trump is a WASP with WASP values.  He’s a member of the club even though he doesn’t have Christian values, because he has WASP values.  And WASP’s generally define the Church.  It’s why I disconnected myself from the WASP community of the seminary.  I don’t have WASP values.  I don’t interpret the Bible with WASP values.  In essence, I am NOT a WASP and NEVER have been.  I grew up in a WASP home.  I  know WASP values.  I COULD have gotten away with all I did if only I was a WASP.  But I never had WASP values.  Donald Trump is a WASP.  He’s a member of the “club.”  And as long as WASP’s accept him as a member of the club, he’s going to get away with murder, literally. 

Now, I am not a WASP and I never have been.  I wasn’t even a wannabe accepted by other WASP’s, but I really had no place to go except to where WASP’s gather.  I tried to be a WASP, but I never shared their values.  WASP’s care about safety, so they buy the safest SUV’s they can buy or think they are safest in an SUV.  WASP’s have a neurotic fear of death, so, they want people who will make sure they don’t die.  Even older WASP’s our age really believe WASP’s in Congress will look out for their interests.  But the WASP’s who now know better are smaller in number.  WASP’s can be poor, but they haven’t given up their dreams.  They have attached their dreams to Donald Trump.  They have their HOPE in HIM!  And it seems no matter how Trump behaves, they won’t give up their hope they have in him.  If their hope in him begins to wane, then they have no choice but to turn to those whom they believe to watch for their interests in Congress.  They turn to Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnel.  They just believe.  And this belief is tied directly to their religion.  So, religion and Conservative theology goes hand in hand for a WASP.  They don’t believe anything negative about their leaders.  I have called the Church a Country Club and i am right.  It is.  In order to belong you need to have the right beliefs otherwise, you can belong, but you won’t be accepted if you don’t.  I understand this perfectly.  It’s why I don’t belong to a church.  I am happier doing it the way I am doing it.  As Patty said, I might have helped more people than I realize and no church would accept the theology of my Angels.  Only a Buddhist would understand what I accept from my Angels.  Really.  I don’t want the hassles even in a Buddhist religion.  I am perfectly content not being aligned with ANY church and with the thinking of the WASP community.  Peace.  I am Brother Ralphie writing for my Angels from The Angels of Life Institute.
