Are the humans who use it for their own need for power, greed and most immoral self aggrandizement.

It has become impossible for me to understand how millions here in America are willing or not understand that the religious right has used you to hate while they have destabilized the financial security of every middle working class person in America in the name of god and hate for people south of the border who’s countries “the religious right” helped destabilize.

Thanks for letting me rant.
