I've heard a number of Christians talk about how many of them dislike people like Pat Robertson. Why don't they speak up? Sometimes they do, but they don't have media empires. Lunatics and fanatics and grifters are always the loudest and their messages have the highest virality. They maximize engagement. After all, here we are talking about them. We're not talking about the sane people.
