(10,252 posts)Or I should say poor education. From the time they were toddlers, their fundamentalist evangelical Christian church taught them to believe in the inerrant word of god in the Bible. Always to have faith in what the Bible said and never to use reason against the Bible and ask questions like: If Jesus was born of virgin birth, where did he get his male chromazomes? Or how did Jesus escape earth's gravity to ascend to heaven without a rocket or oxygen supply? Or better yet, how how does a 3-day old corpse get up and start walking around?
My point is that from early childhood, they were taught to believe what authority figures told them. Is it any wonder that they believe completely what the authority figures on Fox News tells them?
The Age of Enlightenment has never touched them. They probably don't even know when or what it was.

(77,863 posts)... and that feels good to them and being in a crowd of like minded dumb fucks is comfort
to them too. BTW I guarantee @ least half of the crowd has been to these Trump Bund
Rallies before I wish the media would cover that this is not a big movement but the same
people time after time some who call themselves "front row Joes" because they come early
so as to get into the front row. And Trump fleeces these dumb asses too.
Putin installed Trump to weaken and divide America and in that he has been wildly successful.
