This is thermometer scores put in rank order among mainline, evangelicals, and Catholics.
It's clear that evangelicals are the outliers here. Much warmer towards the NRA, ICE, Capitalists.
Cooler towards LGBT, the UN, Planned Parenthood. pic.twitter.com/LhyTkAPBe0

Just want you to know I’m out here. Cradle Methodist from a small town in Mississippi born in 1977 to liberal Democrat parents. Now living in a small extremely conservative town Eupora Mississippi (2000) people. Recently became an Episcopalian. I fell in love with the tradition and became very disenchanted with the Methodist church where I was a member in Eupora. I commute 35 minutes to a bigger town to visit a thriving Episcopal church in starkville Mississippi. I am a 44 year old liberal Christian attending an Episcopal church in Mississippi where two gay people COULD get married. WE ARE OUT HERE!!
