Yep. Sounds Christian to me.Blond hair spilling out of his red Make America Great Again hat, dressed in a long overcoat and a bright red tie, he paced the stage, voicing the grievances that drew more than 1,000 people to a suburban Atlanta park on a chilly December afternoon.
The 2020 presidential election, he said, was rigged. By Democrats. By China’s communist government. By the company that manufactured Georgia’s voting machines and the state officials who purchased them.
It was time, L. Lin Wood said, for a revolution.
“It’s 1776 in America again,” Wood said, his voice rising above the crowd’s swelling cheers. “You’re not going to take our freedom. We’re going to fight for our liberty. We’re going to send that message today, and we’re going to send it all the way to Beijing, China!
To Wood, it is President Donald Trump’s America, and he is willing to take drastic measures to keep it that way. Transforming himself into Trump’s doppelgänger for a rally at Alpharetta’s Wills Park on Dec. 2, the Atlanta lawyer implored the crowd to put their fortunes, their honor and, if necessary, their lives on the line to prevent President-elect Joe Biden from taking office.

Wood is estranged from his adult children and his grandchild, according to court filings, and he has suggested he alienated his family when he embraced Christianity two years ago.
At the same time, Wood is fighting a lawsuit in which three former colleagues say he cheated them out of legal fees and engaged in threatening, erratic behavior.

On Feb. 10, about three weeks after his speech at Mercer, Wood called his colleagues around 1 a.m., begging them to come to his house on a matter of “life or death,” according to court papers. Two of the lawyers say they sat with Wood until almost dawn.
The following day, Wood fired all three lawyers by email — and, hours later, left them voice messages rescinding the terminations. Then, in a lengthy conference call with two of the lawyers, Wood referred to himself as “Lin almighty” and threatened both of them, the lawyers allege.

“You were screwing around with me, but I was someone else in disguise,” Wood wrote. “You in fact have been screwing around with God almighty.”

Wait a minute. This guy's a libel lawyer.
Wood is spreading the kind of allegations he so often sues others over.
Citing no evidence, he accuses state officials, including Gov. Brian Kemp, of taking bribes to keep Trump from winning Georgia. He claims Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger stole votes from Trump. And he spreads conspiracy theories that connect purported election fraud to a traffic accident that killed a 20-year-old worker on U.S. Sen. Kelly Loeffler’s campaign who dated one of Kemp’s daughters.

“This is the battle between good and evil,” he said [at the rally in Alpharetta]. “This is the battle between truth and lies. This election was a fraud on America. Donald Trump won a massive landslide victory unparalleled in the history of this country. And he’s going to stay in the White House because we, the people, voted for him and we, the people, run this country.”
He pointed at people in the crowd like a preacher directly addressing individual congregants.
“This country belongs to you. And you. And you. And you. It belongs to the people!”
Cuckoo town. Sounds like he has a future as a TV evangelist grifter.
...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.UPDATE:
