I love the poorly educated!
It's not even just the poorly educated out here. A lot of intelligent conservatives that are blinded by religion. You can be smart and a moron at the same time.
Blinded by hate. Religion is just used an excuse, even though the hate is contradicting it.
I'd disagree there. Any religion that claims to have a monopoly on capital-T Truth inherently creates ingroups and outgroups. It "others" the outgroups and makes it acceptable (within the ingroups) to dehumanize them.
Even churches than preach love and acceptance inherently look down outsiders and sinners as "less than."
Phew! I read that as “you can be smart and a mormon”.
