As someone who grew up in a majority-white-evangelicals town, I think there are plenty for whom it's not as complicated as in the thread (who I think are a subset of white evangelicalism). Many of them support Trump @ least partly because they're racist, xenophobic spite voters.

I guess I didn't make my point clearly enough to be understood, but it's not really important compared to everything else going on, so I'll just drop out of this conversation now.

The thread is just a history of how we got where we were. The motivations can be quite simple now, but how we got there might not be.
