To be fair, evangelicals themselves have been a means to that end. They are the bastardization of religious values to get their personality cults to give their rich assholes what they want while having to pay only the barest lip service to ethics and morality. Most established religions have to suffer at least a schism or two when they get that bad.

Evangelicals are the political remnants of Jim Crow Southern Baptists who schismed because they could not accept anything short of Slavery being a holy commandment from God.

They wear different clothes, and pretend they're different, but take the hoods off and they're exactly the same.
