Institutions take on the character of their leaders, and political evangelicalism can look much more like Paul Pressler than Jesus Christ. Political evangelicalism is a system that is deeply influenced by depraved men, and it has exactly the features that depraved men will demand of an institution they control.

The stark reality of this depravity is hidden from millions of evangelicals, including millions of Southern Baptists. They love God and their neighbors and live lives far removed from politics. You would want them next door. You would find much to admire in the way they raise their children and serve their communities. They almost all vote Republican, but for many, it’s as much a matter of habit as it is a matter of deeply held conviction. It’s what you do when you go to an evangelical church. It’s part of how you fit into the community you love.

The modern history of political evangelicalism is riddled with the same kind of story: A powerful man gains a following by casting himself as the heroic warrior against the heretical and the godless. When he uses his power and fame to indulge his basest desires, he treats exposure as an attack and justice as persecution.

Against this backdrop, President Trump wasn’t an aberration; he was an inevitability. When he asked evangelicals for their political support, little did he know that he was walking into the house that Paul Pressler built.

So who is Paul Pressler?

Hint: Texas Megachurch, naked boys.

Just to show you how **** STUPID you are, DICKBREATH, Southern Baptists are FAR and AWAY FROM BEING "evangelicals" as it gets!!

You got to "love it" when a **** ATHIEST attempts to define what "real Chritianity" looks like. The same holds true for what an "evangelicals;" looks like.

GO POUND SAND, COCKBREATH!! Little PUSSIES LIKE YOU are easy to kick their asses.

WE don't take marching orders from little useless IDIOTS LIKE YOU!!

Yes....there will be much supporting evidence posted....

As well as examples of the numerous threads where I have previously pointed out this nauseating, and persistent, facet of MAGA.
