(102,292 posts)6. Driving out their own ministers throughout the country. As much as I want to be blase' about this
(and at best, cynical), the "true believers" among Evangelical preachers may well have been the only moderating influence among millions or emerging militants. So, I'm not celebrating this. Just one more sign that the far RW has no "breaks" on their desire for politically-driven, "hypermasculine," misogynistic, abusive. violent, racist "theocracy."
Not a positive un any way, IMO.
