Daily Beast: “Pro-Trump attorney L. Lin Wood would like you to open your hymnals to the first book of COVID, Chapter Q(Anon), verse 2 (Conspiracy Prophets). Wood raised eyebrows recently at the Health and Freedom (as in ‘COVID denialism’) Conference in Oklahoma, when his appearance picked up some attention for its stream of unfiltered crazy as he raved about how the Clintons, the Obamas, the Bidens, and the Bushes are all supposedly involved in sex trafficking, while insisting that Donald Trump is still the president. But I was most struck by how the speech, held at Rhema Bible College, almost exactly mirrored a revivalist sermon.”

“‘Every lie will be revealed. They are killing our children; send them to jail. Put them in front of the firing squad. They are committing acts against humanity. The penalty for an act against humanity is death. Take them out,’ he said. In another section of the speech, Wood declared: ‘He [God] is going to rebirth you into the spirit world, and create exactly the person that he intended you to be,’ before adding, ‘There’s your Q.’ He then appeared to draw the ‘Q’ symbol for QAnon with his index finger. As the Christian conservative writer David French told me, ‘one reason why Q has taken hold in parts of the church’ is that it ‘mimics revivalist/prophetic style/content.’ Indeed, there is plenty of evidence that this mimicry is working. ‘The name of God was everywhere during [the Jan. 6] insurrection against the American government,’ according to the Atlantic’s Emma Green. ‘The mob carried signs and [a] flag declaring JESUS SAVES!… Some were participants in the Jericho March, a gathering of Christians to ‘pray, march, fast, and rally for election integrity.’'”
