As a Christian minister, I believe in God and the devil — and I know whose side today’s pious Republicans are on
Where is that devil and what is he up to? First of all, like in any good horror movie, the devil is always right here in the house. In the case of the current evangelical political machine, the devil is all too often wearing pastoral robes and expensive tailored suits. For many years, the evangelical church has pointed to the devil outside in the world, but the devil is the one doing the pointing. Secondly, the devil is always up to the same thing: creating division through fear.
Even dumber. “Just kidding, bro. Sacrifice this goat instead. Yeah, the one just hanging out over there you could have sacrificed this whole time. Remember how you told your son God would provide an animal? That animal, doofus.”
