13. They love to use religious language and concepts to justify what they do.

They justify their contempt for the poor and their hatred for gays by calling people irresponsible or sinful... they demean women as incapable of making moral choices on our own. They glorify the rich. And some of them are my relatives. When you try to reason with them they say "I DON'T WANT TO HEAR..."

They don't want to watch any news channel except their own beloved Fox or go to any Church except their own, or talk to any people except the select few who reinforce their beliefs. They claim to care about children but they don't really give a damn about the environment or poor children or lots of other things that affect children.

Yeah, there is a big chunk of society that is sick in the head.
