[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think general public perception of Christians has changed significantly last 4 years.

Christians = far right republicans  = crazy DT supporters = hate filled whites[/quote]

I would just add the word "evangelical"  i.e.,

[i]Evangelical Christians = far right republicans  = crazy DT supporters = hate filled whites[/i]

Not all Christians are like that, but because the evangelicals make the most noise, they are giving all Christians a bad name.[/quote]

We are very evangelical but not far right and are very much anti DT. So while you are right that it’s a subgroup of Christians, it’s also a subgroup of evangelicals. [/quote]

Yeah but something like almost 90% of evangelicals voted for Trump so their “subgroup” is w-a-y bigger than yours. The “it’s not my type of Christianity” is a problem because to the outside world, THIS is the visible, loud Christianity. I hate it because it goes against everything that Jesus taught about love, humbleness, doing the right thing quietly, living the poor and downtrodden most of all. The extremist swing of the evangelicals should worry all Christians.

Do you have a source for the 90%? My personal experience is that no one I know from my church voted for Trump. It was hilarious when my Trump supporting parents came to visit and thought he’d have a sympathetic ear in two active military members that attend. They wouldn’t let him get a word in they were so anti Trump. [/quote]
