Evangelical Christians have a profound impact on American politics and society. They tend to hold socially conservative beliefs while considering themselves patriots. Gun ownership is deemed a constitutional right by most, and many believe that the Bible is the literal word of God.
Christian churches have a significant role to play in the US, especially in rural areas. They operate schools, universities, and organize music festivals to celebrate their faith. But the documentary also highlights their opposition to abortion, pre-marital sex, and homosexuality, beliefs they deem incompatible with their faith. In some cases, fundamentalist Christian groups have created paramilitary units for self-defense against perceived enemies, including non-believers, Communists, and Muslims.
