When will fundamentalist Christians wake up to the extent to which they are being manipulated and used?

Probably never. And they are a very profitable demographic for political and religious hucksters.

The Left also has its share of fringe fanatics.

I remember visiting a "Christian" denomination called Unity, and I met people who believed very outlandish religious dogma.

These folks believed in the power of rocks, beads, affirmations, and other assorted BS.

I finally stopped going to the "church" after a member of the congregation, an author of several religious books, committed suicide. Nevertheless, when I went to his memorial service, the suicide was kept under wraps, and the family and friends talked about the author being taken by God because the author had "accomplished his mission."

The author was a victim of what Robert Ringer calls the 10-2 Theory... some people tend to believe their own BS.

T'was the downfall of the Republican party. Some courageous ones are still hanging in there, but it'll be a tough struggle.
