Granted, I am in a bible belt rural city, but I've realized if you stick out the conversation with some of these Trumpy Christians long enough you'll get to the heart - They really do just.... want to be told what to think. You have to play nice to get them there, but they eventually drill down to some variation of "Gods word is law and my pastors word is gods word and anything else is satanic bullshit we're not meant to know if we were it'd be in the bible or my pastor would tell me, as God intended." Scientific advancement is either fake or heathens dragging us further and further from god because Satan guides them to knowledge about the world.

I can't speak for everyone of course but its nuts to see how many people really are still ALL IN on "the apple is knowledge, Eve ate the apple, and that ripped us away from god for eternity - we were meant to be nothing but sheep"
