That, and lets face it, certain parts of the evangelical moevement (not all) have transormed into a political group, and less so a religion. Interested in attaining influence and power. They are going to draw the same kind of criticism and ire that any other political group may draw.
Those of you who are well meaning will still get caught in that crossfire, I would try not to take most of it personally.
