More and more so lately.

I grew up an uber conservative Christian, so I get it. I do. I know what it is and what motivates it and I know what makes it tick.

But also, they make me angry.

Understandable.

That strain of conservationism seems to serve as an excuse for a lot of bigotry and they often try to frame rejecting or refusing to indulge their bigotry as persecution.
