26. We need an Evangelical TV sitcom

Sun Nov 22, 2020, 09:40 AM

Nov 2020

Religion is protected under the 1st Amendment, but many evangelicals confuse that protection with free speech. The later allowing anyone to have an opinion about anything.
An opinion does not infringe on a religions right to exist, as many right-wing Christians think it does and that is what i find funny. They are confusing faith and political viewpoints as some biblical mandate.

Why not create a modern TV sitcom about this confusion in America?
The zany antics of biblical-blanketed envangelicals confronting the science-based reality of 21st century society could, if well written, produced and acted could have similar realizations, about our societal foibles, that "All in The Family" brought.
