IT IS THAT SHE CALLS HERSELF A DEMOCRAT that makes it necessary to point out that the only admitted atheist in the Senate, Krysten Sinema is exactly what you'd expect from someone who doesn't believe there is such a thing as sin, there are no moral absolutes - something that inevitably comes when you deny the only source of those possible which People have identified, who People generally identify as God - and so figures that anything they can get away with and work for themselves is OK.
She is notable for sort-of admitting that she is the only atheist in the Senate but I am certain to within the realm of certainty that she is far from the only one. And you can know them by how they act.
I would point out that that is not exclusive to her, though she is exactly the kind of two-faced, blatant hypocrite such as Mehdi Hasan exposed her as being on his show, Joe Manchin is another one, who is only exceptional in that because he, as well as Sinema pretends he's a Democrat while being a de facto Republican on so many things that matter, including protecting the elections system from Republican theft.
Of course the Republicans, those who profess their belief in religions that, if followed, would prevent their entire political careers from being conducted by them, are typical of the kind of hypocrisy that you would justifiably suspect might come from someone who has Krysten Sinema's ideological identity because that's exactly how they behave.
I think one of the realities that the United States forces us to see in 2021 is that a very, very large percentage of those who profess a belief in God, in the Bible, the Law, the Prophets, the Gospel, etc. act as if they didn't believe a single thing about it. We have, in fact, a 52 vote majority who conduct their public life as if they didn't believe in even the requirement to tell the truth, to not lie, to not bear false witness, to do for the least among us as we would do for God, etc. That is the truth of it. In fact I don't think the United States Senate is alone in that, I think the judiciary and even many of the largest Churches in the United States have the same character - by their fruits you will know them. Business and the legal profession and, without any doubt, most of the media are also bereft of morals on behalf of profits, self-enrichment, hoarding of billions in personal assets, etc.
Krysten Sinema's self-serving, self-enriching ways are the ways of the media, the legal profession and the Republican-fascist party. I won't fault Mehdi Hasan for not taking notice that ALL OF THE REPUBLICANS and just about all of the legal system and all of the media are as corrupt as she is with varying degrees of the kind of hypocrisy that he, finally, is able to present from her since she gave a rare interview in which she lied her pearly white teeth off about keeping her word and promises she made to the voters who put her in office and the supporters she lied to, as well.
We live in an age as corrupt as the most corrupt epochs of the medieval, renaissance, baroque, classical and robber baron eras. We are going into a period when, due to such discrediting of Christianity and religion as is bought by the hypocrisy of those who profess it the loudest has reached past the tipping point. There's a reason that Catholics are bailing on the official Church as the hypocrisies and corruptions of the past two papacies, especially, have driven out people of sincere belief. The U. S. Catholic Conference of Bishops as those two bad popes left it is at least as hypocritical as Krysten Sinema and the entire Republican-fascist caucus of the Senate and the House.
I feel it necessary to point out this is no apology on behalf of or vindication of Sinema, she is vile. It is to point out that the only reason her vileness matters is that every single Republican-fascist in the Congress is as vile so her vileness makes theirs the effective controllers of the Senate. Hers and that of the Catholic Joe Manchin.
