A grim murder story illustrates why it’s so incredibly easy for predators to fool evangelicals into thinking they’re good Christians.

    And because evangelicals are easy to deceive, it’s why nearly every politician at least professes membership to some form of Christianity (which is thankfully changing) and we have various organizations trying to push theocracy and eschew education.

    It’s like free points at the voting booth and a get-out-of-jail-free card for any transgressions, major or minor, in perpetuity, from anyone who practices fundigelicalism.

    It’s very sad and pitiable what happened to that poor woman and her family. I have seen similar kinds of situations, though not as dire, happen to friends when I was a fundie.

    Best line that describes Evangelical religions:

    “Evangelicals’ broken system works great for those who can who take advantage of its reality“
