So I have an acquaintance that is a fervent JRA/prosperity gospel/evangelical.

At the beginning of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, he was 100% behind Ukraine.

Lately he’s changed his tune and now says “Putin is just a strong leader trying to bring his country back together”.

I know that this mirrors current GOP rhetoric, so I’m curious how much of this opinion was formed at JRA?

Since evangelicals and the GOP merged, it’s hard to tell which is the dog and which is the tail.
