Yep! When I was a kid, I remember going to Bible studies, and it was just memorizing quotes and then discussing them. Completely out of the rest of the book we pulled it from.

As someone who grew up Catholic going to Sunday School, this is absolutely wild as a way to study the Bible. Ours was about learning the stories and reading them in context (with a huge focus on the Earthly ministry and teachings of Jesus).
Same. Grew up in South Texas in an ultra-rightwing town. It's so... weird.. seeing everything that got metaphorically beaten into my head get tossed out the window in favor of this lunatic in office. Like. Wtf.

Then comes apologetics at the same passions as a Star Trek fan trying to knit inconsistent canon.
