Not once, not twice, but THREE times. This is who they are. Mainstream Christianity in the US is cruel, immoral, vile, racist, misogynistic, narcissistic, vulgar, criminal, and hateful, and Trump represents them very well indeed. I understand that Rev. Pavlovitz wishes it wasn't so, but it is so. My question to Rev. Pavlovitz is, what does he intend to do about it?
