There's a certain segment of the Democratic Party that thinks that religion as a whole is bad, that any hint of Christian-inspired morality, policy, symbolism, language, etc. in American life needs to be purged, and that those who believe in Christianity are foolish. At least, that's the perception of most Christians on the right. And let's be fair, there's definitely something to it.
Lately there's been a rise in churches that pander to liberal youth by saying, "we're the cool church. We're the tolerant church. Come to us if you're tired of the Republicans in your church." And you go there and every sermon will be about how God loves whatever minority/LGBT group, or weed. The two things liberal millennials care about. It's pretty lame, what's supposed to be a completely separate and very important part of your life (and it is to me), has just become, for a lot of left-leaning youth, just another extension of their oh-so-important political identity. They can't read the new testament without thinking about how it relates to the 2016 election or whatever.
It's a shame.
