Summary

Evangelical Christians have fallen prey to the temptations offered by Donald Trump, similar to those faced by Jesus in the desert. Trump has offered evangelicals wealth, protection, and power, leading them away from the teachings of Jesus and closer to the path set forth by the devil. The evangelical church has submitted to Trump, moving further from the values of serving the poor, healing the sick, and loving neighbors.

        Raised within a grift. Never having been encouraged to think outside the grift. Essentially, they are part of the Borg. I’d feel sorry for them if they weren’t so completely dangerous to anything that isn’t them.
