I’ve been really wondering how do you convince anyone whose political views are so deeply tied to strong religious beliefs. But maybe these evangelical Christians have an advantage here, the combination of strict dogma with unconditional forgiveness, might mean that a complete shift is possible. That a narrative can be formed where they were “led astray” but that there’s complete absolution from that.

Most people are very prideful and struggle to change their minds once they have expressed an opinion out loud. But this group is quite special in that they receive their “opinions” externally, and these opinions can then potentially be “strong opinions lightly held”.
