And I have always stood up for the rights of your children and for any marginalized group because I see how cruel white evangelical Christians are in mass and also. Architecture is terrible at the churches. That's just an aside. I always have to point that out for the record. It's named Pew for a reason. And I think it's a grift.
I think whenever your pastor has a PJ and he's flying around a private plane and he takes Venmo, I think we all know what's going on. But I do agree that I don't have to claim...

No, I love that. And I wish that that were more streamlined. I think that the question, and this might be another podcast entirely, is, you know, I do think the larger issue is that there is a... white people Christian problem in this country.

And I think we kind of have to talk about it because when you look at Trump's base and you look at evangelicals, it's something like over 90% voted for Trump.

And so I used to always feel like I, you know, we can't be so critical about religion and stuff. But now that we're here, we've arrived at fascism, democracy is declining. And then Trump said recently, like he wanted to sniff out like people that had a anti-Christian bias. And I was like, oh, my God, I totally have that. I'm right here. Come get me. I definitely have a bias towards it.
