Fact is, these clowns know absolutely nothing about the teachings of Christ.
The more fundamental the religious belief the more totalitarian it becomes. Certainly some evangelicals fall into this category. As Hitchens put it, God occupies a celestial dictatorship, one that surveils you day and night, where even thought crime is punished, and from which there is no escape - not even in death. It's the ultimate totalitarianism.
