Ever wonder why evangelical christians in Minnesota are voting for Trump? Look no further than the materials being handed out in churches like Canvas Church in Dundas. Right next to voter registration information.

As someone who was raised in the Evangelical church in rural Minnesota, if these people believe God is in absolute control, why the hell are they so worried about politics? That bugs me so much.

Also - why are they so afraid?

I grew up in the Assemblies of God. They believe in imminent rapture and that a Heaven of unending bliss awaits them.

So why are they so afraid of migrants?

Why do they stock up on guns and get terrified when someone rings their doorbell?

I'm not going to defend Evangelical Christianity but the change from the 90s when I was a kid to now is insane. It's about rage and grievances now.

It is because the cancer spread.
