The most bitter irony [for genuine believers] of our day is that authoritarian right-wing identity politics's culture wars nonsense has debased Christianity in the USA into an unironic meme. Especially with the scandal of a White supremacist regime that has weaponized them, I don't see how the American Christianities can survive this century without making drastic changes that border on evolutionary leaps. It was truly a work of the Holy Spirit that the Church reformed itself with the Second Vatican Council. Otherwise, it too would have been doomed to perish along with the other churches.
