I'd put Dr. King in the same category.

- skybrian 8y agoAre you saying that not everyone knew he was a preacher? I don't have that impression.
- humanrebar 8y agoI think popular culture considers him an activist first and a preacher incidentally. When people condemn Christian culture and teaching as hateful, they are likely forgetting Dr. King is in the picture. > ...not the image of a Christian minister that we usually see in the mainstream media and popular culture. The trope of a Christian preacher in popular culture resembles Bakker or Osteen more than Rogers or King.
