And for all of what he did, getting blasted because he has openly embraced a particular doctrinal point that isn't shared by the majority, and has once again used his fame and reputation to promote it, is just one more example of how far away from authentic Christianity Evangelicals have moved. He's not the only one. Rejecting heretics, ruining careers and chasing after dollars is a hallmark of American Evangelicalism. And it provides a lot of insight as to why they are completely and totally deceived when it comes to Trump. They are used to the distortion of facts and to avoiding reality by creating an alternate universe. That allows them to put any interpretation they want on something, and deceive themselves into thinking its true, because "there's a verse" that supports it.


Explains a lot about Evangelicals and their politics.
