Hell, contemporarily, her actions fit the worldview of MILLIONS upon millions of Christians. Religion is precisely what each believer belives it to be and nothing more.

They don’t care about Christianity and never go to church, but performatively lecture others about mortality, despite being absolutely shitty people themselves.

It’s a laughable farce designed to fool stupid people into supporting them because of tribalism. She’s not a real Christian - she just plays one on TV. It’s nauseating.

doing charity pursuits of all types. Seriously--they "walk the walk"

Yet, I haven't seen any of these three women wearing a cross of any kind in years-even though I am pretty sure that they all once did. I asked one once what happened to the small, tiny diamond cross I knew that she'd been given by her parents decades ago. She as much as admitted that she and many others she knew felt "uncomfortable," because of the stigma political exploiters on the "right" had placed on the symbolism.

I wasn't surprised, but it does say a lot.

...it's been absent for a couple weeks, as I recall.

It's funny that both Leavitt and her predecessor, Kayleigh McEnemy...er...McEnany, are both known for virtue-signalling their Catholic bona fides, but they always wear an unadorned Protestant-style cross (instead of a crucifix). I still wonder if Leavitt got some backtalk from the radtrad crazies about that.
