It's very sad that these right wing types, who claim to be 'Christian' don't get Jesus' teachings at all! They are the most judgemental and cynical types who only worship worldly power and money... They are always so eager to spend more money on the military and always eager to start a new war.

If, as you say, people are married to the movement, you would think they would be careful not to do the things that would cause friction in the marriage. If you were to have an affair, and your wife kicked you out, whose fault would that be? I don't think you would have much to complain about.
