The fact is that there is zero proof of anything linking politics with religion - it became a topic of SB without any idea about the real connection. Religion can have an impact on political thinking - but it is tenuous at best,
In the USA the Catholic Church and the Jewish were linked to the DP for many decades and the Jews remain linked to that Party, So are most of the Blacks and Latino's in the USA, When one wants to come up with religion as a determination as to voting preferences you have to be stupid beyond description,
In Russia the Socialist Communist Regime oppressed the Russian Orthodox Church - but never the Jewish who was the mainstay of the Communist Party, The Russian Orthodox Church survived the repression - the Communist Party did not and the Jews ended up fleeing from Russia in large numbers, Many ended up in the USA where they remain as Communists, So repression leads to a different route and often enough that has in history been [art of religious growth.
It would never be a way to determine the daily conduct of people and their political believes. In most countries in Africa religion is a very strong determinator as to what happens in politics and a number of them is involved in religious wars between Muslims and other religions.
I can only see hatred of Christianity by SB as the real reason for their hatred of the Republican Party and Trump, That being the case - they are both deficient in political thinking ability,
The fact is billionaires are real political scoundrels and so is Bill Gates, They do sound great in philanthropy - but that is eyewash for extreme idiots to believe, The extreme wealthy in the world is only really interested in protecting and enhancing their wealth and the best ways to do that is to enhance liberal and socialist systems which means oppression of the workers and ordinary people. Go back in history and you will find that it was the extreme wealthy who supported the rise of Communism in Russia and the Nazis in Germany, They still support the Communists in China and moved much of their production activities to China because of cheaper labour - making for bigger profits, a small percentage of which is then passed on to philanthropy. Anybody stupid enough to not realize what is going on is just plain idiotic. , .
