Negative Portrayal of Evangelicals

I just watched another of the fictional TV shows that come down hard on   Christians of various stripes. "Law and Order" has a thing about that. Evangelicals are painted as dangerous fanatics, phony con artists, or well-meaning fools. Heaven knows there are lots of those. The latest episode took a jab at Christian Scientist parents who let their kid die because they "don't believe in doctors."  I am not in the Evangelical  fold but I know a great many who are. A few are nutty, many are worthy of my respect, some are almost admirable.
There are some pretty nutty Christian Liberals, too.
