As the son of a scholar of linguistics, Pete Buttigieg shows that he understands the power of deceptive sophistical propaganda, and frequently uses the word "security" as a major theme, this being mentioned 27 times in his position page, from "climate security" to economic security to security from intimidation, under the guise that his policies are virtuous, when in reality such are shown to cause the opposite. Likewise, he often employs the term "harm" such as in portraying The [[Religious Freedom Restoration Act]], saying it "appeared to me to be a license to harm others in the name of religion."  However, Buttigieg supports punishing those (by supporting the proposed Federal Equality Act) who oppose homosexual relations. He also attacks evangelicals as hypocrites for supporting the Republican party (which he asserts) is contrary to Christian faith, while evidently expecting them to (hypocritically) support him.

Likewise, he often employs the term "harm" such as in portraying The [[Religious Freedom Restoration Act]], saying it "appeared to me to be a license to harm others in the name of religion."  However, Buttigieg implicitly supports punishing those (by supporting the proposed Federal Equality Act) who oppose homosexual relations. He also attacks evangelicals as hypocrites for supporting the Republican party (which he asserts) is contrary to Christian faith, while evidently expecting them to (hypocritically) support him.

Despite promoting himself as a Christian, a term which originates in the Bible (Acts 11:27) and which describes their beliefs, Buttigieg openly rejects moral teachings of the Bible that he does not like, dismissing such at will, even stating, "Jesus speaks so often in hyperbole and parable, in mysterious code, that in my experience, there’s simply no way that a literal understanding of Scripture can fit into the Bible that I find in my hands.." Buttigieg also argues that human life can be understood as only beginning with the first breath, and misappropriates the Bible by making Christ's words on helping the poor (which often relates to being poor/humble in spirit) as justifying liberal (impoverishing) socialism.<ref>Morris, Alex (November 20, 2019).
