As Joseph Uscinski argues, the “propensity for conspiracy thinking is predictable along ideological lines.” This is a problem for many Islamic communities too. I’ve said, “Father, should I be wasting my time on this?” … And I don’t feel that feeling of I should stop.īut this is not just an “evangelical right” thing. I feel like if it was deceitful, in my spirit, God would be telling me, “Enough’s enough”. I really feel like God pushed me in this direction. As is apparent from the testimony of Lorrie Shock, the very language of evangelical Christianity is amenable to adherence to QAnon: Why are so many Christians to be found in the ranks of today’s conspiracy theorists? Just consider the popularity of a movement like QAnon - which claims that Donald Trump is waging a secret war against “a worldwide cabal of Satan-worshipping paedophiles” - among evangelicals.
