Has Evangelical Christianity Become Sociopathic?

Is modern evangelical christianity becoming sociopathic?

I ran across an article on Huffington Post about how some Christians are using the Bible to discriminate against other contrary to religious teachings. It was written by Tim Rymel. I want to give him and The Huffington Post credit where credit is due.  There are some interesting links in his article. They provide the basis for his statements so people cannot call them “alternative facts.”

Since Evangelical Christianity began infiltrating politics, officially in the late 1970s, there has been a disturbing trend to limit or remove rights from those who don’t meet the conservative idea of an American. Many of these initiatives come in the form of “religious freedom” laws, which empower discrimination, while other legislation targets immigrants who believe differently. The result has been a sharp division in American culture, and the redefinition of Christian theology.

The mistrust and dissatisfaction that we’re seeing from many groups of people for many different (and often opposing) reasons–this unrest didn’t come out of nowhere.
