The interpretive headscratcher that is Evangelicalism

I saw this new video from Belief It Or Not, which does great video essays on Christianity in the US. This one is basically about how conservative Evangelical types stand for the opposite of everything Jesus said. It's longer, but it's good. Let me know what you think?

Yes, it's an obvious point. Somehow Christianity has again been twisted, as it has many times in history, to justify very un-Christian ideas and behaviour.

I think it is fair and apt to consider evangelicals as anti-Christs. They do take positions that are contrary to what Jesus taught, and seem to revel in having extreme and biased views against social tolerance, science, and reason. I suspect this Christian approach has grown by exploiting certain human weaknesses, and it has been profitable.

It's insidious how they brainwash you. Now though it's probably more overt, but it didn't used to be.
