I would just want them to shut up and mask up so I can read my book. Violent hilarity on airplanes....no thanks.
I am all for morons calming down and minding their manners but once that ship has sailed I look forward to them hoisting themselves as high as possible upon their own petards.

Well, I know lots of Christians who mask up, think Covid is a very big deal and believe it was handled badly from the top.
Sure, and I'm one of them. But in the present political climate I'm not a "real" Christian anyway. I don't even think the election was stolen, either--the mark of an apostate for sure.

Perhaps you didnt get the party-loyalty addendum to the creed.

My Bible says higher authority. It also says that higher authority is a minister of God.
I'm sure God wouldn't be happy with people refusal to wear a mask. During a COVID-19 pandemic. And wear are the rights of the passengers, that doesn't want people breathing on them during a COVID-19 pandemic?

I think it is a "Love thy neighbor" sort of thing.

But the people in this country who claim the unique right to speak for God tell us in the name of Christ that Covid is no big thing and that realistic measures to control the pandemic are part of an atheistic socialist conspiracy to attack the Christian faith. And there is no doubt that our inadequate response to the pandemic is in good part due to the President's desire to pander to their lurid fantasy.

After this last Wednesday, Christianity deserves some serious criticism.
That's all well and good, but the Christian position in this country is that Covid is no big deal and steps taken to mitigate it are part of an atheistic socialist conspiracy to attack the Christian faith.

While not aimed at anyone specifically, you will know them by their fruits[1] because false teachers, false prophets, and false Christians were foretold by the Holy Bible.[2]

These fruits include the Biblical equivalent of modern day Emotional Intelligence[3] (Galatians 5:7-26), the Ten Commandments containing laws still found in most modern legal systems (Deuteronomy 5:1-21, Exodus 20:1-17), what healthy relationships look like (1 Corinthians 13:1-13), and what these all boil down to (Luke 10:25-37, Mark 12:28-34, Matthew 22:34-40) and the eternal consequences for refusal to do so (Matthew 7:13-29, 25:31-46).

The Apostles and Early Christians were well aware of infiltrators attempting to use this religion for their own personal gain, both during their time and in future generations.[2]

ANYONE claiming to practice ANY ideology needs to put their money where their mouths are. Otherwise, are they really genuine adherents to their ideology?
  1. 1 Corinthians 13:1-13, Deuteronomy 5:1-21, Exodus 20:1-17, Galatians 5:7-26, John 14:15-18, Luke 10:25-37, Mark 12:28-34, Matthew 7:13-29, 22:34-40, 25:31-46, Romans 13:8-10, 2 Timothy 3:1-17

You tell them, then. We tried to tell them with an election to unseat their puppet, but they claimed it was a fraud and stormed the Congress in retaliation.

This may seem a dumb question... but was the pilot going to land the plane first?

Donald Trump supporters do NOT speak for all Christians. That is a gross over-generalization[1][2] and this kind of scapegoating is part of the process leading to genocide.[14][15]

74 million Americans, not all of them confirmed Christians, voted for Donald Trump[3][4] compared to over 2 billion Christians worldwide[5][6] with their own national problems, including persecution by other religions and government institutions.[9][10][11][12][13][17]

Donald Trump is LITERALLY NOT my president. My country's prime minister is Justin Trudeau.[8] My country's monarch is her majesty the queen, Elizabeth II.[18] My Lord and Saviour is the Lord Jesus Christ of Nazareth, the Messiah, the Anointed One, Who has come in the flesh.[7][16]

He said he would "put the plane down" prior to dumping people in Kansas so yes. Lacking a rear hatch or bomb bay greatly hampers the process of throwing miscreants out at speed or altitude.

No. Donald Trump's supporters speak only for white, right-wing Evangelical Protestants. According to them, the rest are merely pretending to be Christians. They insist that prudent measures to contain the pandemic are really part of an atheistic socialist conspiracy to deny their religious freedom. They insist that any steps to combat global warming are really an atheistic socialist plot to destroy Christianity. The insist that any form of gun control at all is an atheistic socialist conspiracy to confiscate the guns that loyal patriotic Christians need to protect themselves against atheistic socialists. "Out" LGBTs are an unacceptable threat to their religious liberty. BLM is condemned as a resolutely Marxist organization bent on imposing atheistic tyranny through violent revolution. They demand a monumental border wall to protect the purity of their Christian culture from brown Roman Catholic refugees fleeing failed states in Central America. They want punitive laws against abortion while rejecting proposals which would actually reduce abortion. They support high tariff barriers which will damage our economy in the long run to protect themselves against something they call "globalism" and champion an isolationist foreign policy for the same reason. All in Christ's name. Anyone who opposes them in any way is "persecuting" Christians, which makes me want to weep when I consider that Christians elsewhere in the world are being imprisoned and even murdered for their faith.

74 million Americans, not all of them confirmed Christians, voted for Donald Trump
Correct. And the "Christians" amongst them now insist that the re-election of their puppet president was "stolen" by a vast left-wing conspiracy which even included prominent Republican officials and Trump appointed conservative judges. You saw how they reacted to that last Wednesday when they assaulted the Capitol to disrupt the electoral process, waving the discredited banner of their own failed state.

You don't suppose Her Majesty would take us back? I don't think Jesus wants us any more.
