I regret catching this piece more than a week after the fact. Startling and believable, this interview and the calls provide an important perspective on the state of Christianity on the right. Most of my family is of this ilk, so I reluctantly appreciate hearing my fears validated

The interviewer does an excellent job of asking the tough questions & letting the interviewee answer at length. While the story title sounds vociferous Chris Hedges provides a very reasoned & complete explanation of his thoughts. In addition listeners call to comment or ask questions of the author. These are very interesting especially the last caller who is an evangelical pastor.
