The Bible says that by their fruits you shall know them. Meaning those who follow Jesus. So, look at zero’s fruits and tell me if he is a Christian.

People use the phrase, judge not, lest ye be judged. However, we can be fruit inspectors, and I see rotten fruit growing on zero’s tree.

If you want to call black racist socialist liberation theology “Christianity” then perhaps FUBO is “Christian”.
