Some comments:
Re: Narrow-minded Christianity in California: Once you head about 50 miles inland from the coast, California is pretty much a different state from the one you see on TV. Of course, probably 2/3 the state population lives in that 50-mile strip. Geographically, the vast majority of California is moderate-to-far-right conservative.
Re: What kind of Christians would do this? Answer: Christianity, like most religions, can be bent to the culture of the country here that hosts it. Here in America we have a lot of people who think their personal beliefs deserve holy affirmation and yet don't examine their lives too much, want a God who will help them but not desire too much of them, and, wrapped in self-righteous armour, can then feel free to blame everyone but themselves for their problems and the problems of the world.
Guess what kind of Christianity these people like?
