in most cases the Republican party in particular is I hope what will be the great undoing of religion in this country.

Coupling the religious zealots and hypocrites with the most odious and amoral, immoral group of politicians anywhere and having their mutual exploits displayed on the internet daily without any one to stop it is finally exposing them for what they are.

The religious wanted earthly power so they could impose their beliefs on everyone. Their willingness to partner with this immoral group has worked against them.

Now we are seeing churches empty and people exploring alternatives to religion and also looking at what is truth versus empty claims.

Couldn't happen to a better group.
