I travel through Luverne every so often. It’s a sleepy town on the way to the beaches south of Montgomery. Like most other small towns it is dominated by its big Baptist Church. It’s not a place to stay and enjoy. There’s not much there.
The article illustrates though the major and continuing problem in this country: religion. Religion sucks the life out of these people. It forces them to vote against their own economic interests. It sucks up all their critical thinking skills. It demands their obedience to their one view of the world and removes all possibilities of rationale debate over the proper future of the country.
