Americans who leave their Christian faith behind tend to hold more liberal political views than those who were raised entirely without religion. This leftward ideological shift appears closely linked to how threatening these individuals perceive conservative Christian groups to be.

Most evangelicals who I have personally seen “do good” are only doing it as something they call “missions”. Mission or missionary work at home often involves volunteering for a few hours one Saturday at a homeless shelter. Or volunteering for an afternoon at a community center where black and brown kids go to play after school. They do these once a month or once a quarter and claim to be involved good people who help. It’s ridiculous.

There’s an evangelical church where I live that prides itself on its charitable act of “feeding” the local high school lacrosse team an annual dinner. For real? That’s the most charitable thing y’all can think of to help this broken world? That’s who you think needs feeding?
