They worship money and God equally.  Every other inconsistency stems from that broken principle.

They're just following the lead of the megachurch pastors, who have gotten quite wealthy off the Gospel of Positive Thinking that supposedly leads to prosperity for the faithful flock.

The central inconsistency within the Republican Party-similar to that of the Democratic Party, actually-is between the monied individuals and interests who control the direction the party goes and many of the people who vote for the party, although there is more overlap than you might assume between those groups (grassroots activists, for example, are "ordinary people" despite their tendency to be upper-middle class).

Gays-Well Marriage has been between a man and a woman for thousands of years.

Not only is this not true, but it's immaterial to the issue at hand. Slavery has been around for thousands of years too, in various forms. So have things like incest and bestiality. I guess you're alright with all of those.
