    One interesting thing is that evangelicals always say their values and faith are “under attack” and people despise them.

    No, most people have great respect for people of faith and don’t despise and attack Christians or any other faith group, but many despise and attack the Republican Party. And the evangelicals have unfortunately managed to tie themselves so hard to the Republican Party that the two have become almost symbiotic. There’s a big difference.
