The hostility of many on this forum to evangelical Christianity would never fly if similar comments were said about literally any other religious tradition.  And, before you say that it's because we are "advantaged", I would push back on that.  Evangelicals see very little representation in entertainment, for example (and, when we are represented, it's usually a cartoonish portrayal).

I think this is an important point.  Evangelicals seem much more powerful than they actually are.  Evangelicals have a lot of Representation within the Republican Party.  However, when it comes to the media, education, Hollywood, and business, there really aren't very many Evangelicals at all.

I don't have a problem with criticism of Evangelical beliefs, as long as it's criticism of things that Evangelicals actually believe and not a caricature of Evangelical Christianity.

I see evangelical whining again, now they know how the rest of us felt when they used their backwards views to put down religious minorities, LGBTQ+ people and women to further their 2k year old beliefs. Cry more evangelicals say they love everyone and want people to be saved through Christ, yet so their damndest to discriminate against sexual and religious and gender minorities you cant have your cake and eat it to, and people wonder why religion is in the decline in the world

Is that even true?
