The Evangelicals are not good Christians. They made their bargain with the Rs and Ronald Reagan in the 80s. Reagan got a captivated audience that was willing to listen and be influenced by charismatic "Religious Leaders" about the conservative Republican agenda, and these same followers sent those leaders their hard earned money so the likes of  Falwell and Robertson could live very comfortably. In return, the leaders got a party in government power that would push their value system. Religion and Christ really have nothing to do with it. They aren't so interested in morals and Christian values, unless you call power and profit motive alone a Christian value. These Evangelical Leaders are selling a product, one they can not make or build or hold in their hands. But it's a business just the same.
