(1,668 posts)Here in so-called liberal Washington we have a huge swath of the state that could more rightly be called Western Idaho at this point.
It is from this land of cosplay rugged independence that we get treasures like Matt Shea, who is literally the first hit when you search "crazy republican theocrat eastern washington." At one point there was a recording of him saying they should force the conversion of all men to their cult or kill them. When asked about it he said it was just a thought experiment. It was at that point that I decided that "Christians" and GOPpers who wouldn't denounce that kind of thought experiment had already joined the cult. If you are not willing to stand against killing your neighbors who hold different beliefs, you're just waiting for your brown shirt.
Incidentally, they hold sectarian positions. If they wind up on top, I think a lot of people will be surprised to find out they're no longer considered Christian(tm).
