18. Republican churchgoers are woefully ignorant of the teachings of Christ.

Jesus was a radical woke leftist and any honest reading of the Gospels would clearly lead to that conclusion. Jesus was the very definition of a liberal. He challenged the religious order of his day (the Pharisees and Scribes were the RW conservatives), he challenged the social order of his day and he challenged the cultural order of his day. Jesus was a liberal through and through.

RW conservative Christians are clueless.
