They Really Are Like That

I would like to make a documentary filled with revealing quotes from Christianists, one after the other, along with information about how the Republican Party is so closely tied with Christiansts that they have become the tail that wags the dog. And I would add information about how church affiliation is dropping off, and how young people have come to associate homophobia with Christianity. But mostly it would be awful, jaw-dropping quotes--some printed, some video clips--coming at you very quickly…an avalanche of hate. I think a lot of moderate and liberal Christians don’t pay much attention to Christianists, and when they do, many make excuses for them. “They mean well.” “They’re not really like that.” “They just don’t understand. Give them some time.” I would like for these moderate and liberal Christians to walk away knowing that they do not mean well, they really are like that, and they don’t want to understand.
