I wouldn't say the biggest hypocrites, but they certainly have a cultural mentality of unending persecution that they use to justify these hypocritical actions.  I mean take gay marriage for instance.  The key argument that Christians were using is that the government was trying to redefine marriage and force them to accept it so the only thing they could do to defend themselves is lead the movement to ban gay marriages.  Also, supposedly "small government" types among them have a tendency to cheer on guys like Trump who throw caution to the wind and just start ruling like dictators rather than get the insight from Congress.

Hilarious considering that they supposedly follow the religion whose teacher once said "turn the other cheek".

And abortion is murder, yet that doesn't seem to factor into your analysis. How much sexual assault would the Democratic nominee have to commit in order for you to vote for a guy who would put gays in the closet? These questions are harder than you think.

Fair point.

I for one sat out this past election (I really regret it now) because I didn't feel like I could vote for either candidate because they seemed corrupt as all hell.  I mean sometimes you gotta have enough pride and enough common sense to know when the person your friends support is a massive crook regardless of how many vox articles protest otherwise.  People complain about hypocritical standards for evangelicals when a lot of Democrats literally spent something like 3-4 years forcing someone who is probably a criminal onto Democratic Primary voters and buried anybody who dared stand out as an alternative because "that's the ONLY way we'll beat the Rethuglicans!!!!"

I mean, really?
