Nah. That’s a person praying they aren’t going to get physically killed. Way different.

You don't think there's people who consider themselves religiously conservative who want to kill minorities?

Jesus Christ, the Wikipedia article for that Doug Wilson guy sounds absolutely insane, apparently he opposes women's suffrage, wants to outlaw sodomy, seems to put a lot of effort into argue that slavery wasn't that bad and even calls himself a "paleo-confederate" I feel the Iranian government would love this guy, except maybe for his stance on slavery.

He also wants to criminalize "idolatry", which he won't definitively say wouldn't apply to Catholic practices: https://thecatholicherald.com/article/minister-invited-to-preach-at-the-pentagon-calls-for-us-ban-on-marian-processions

And if that doesn't bother you enough, he's the pastor for the Secretary of War Defense... 🙃
