I Know the evangelicals will never change.

“ When a cultural issue intersects with the teachings of Jesus, we definitely should say something. The problem is when we do that -- which we should -- we do that knowing that ... if I take a more left-leaning position on gun control -- which I wouldn't, because in my mind that's a very complicated issue -- but if I did, then I realize that the Republicans in my church are going to put me in the bucket of everything that the Democrats believe, because there's no middle ground now. There's no nuance. It's tricky.”
