Honestly, I think I just need to *go* to this particular church and grow as a Christian before I go around criticizing their politics. I mean, I'm becoming a little more conservative as I get old (I'm almost 27), but I'll never be a FOX "new" fan or support the NRA. I have my limits, you know?

You wrote,[...Here in the South, Episcopailians are like a xxx yyy. They vvv a lot...].
I am unsure as to what you used as criteria to portray the subjects as you have written. If you could post answers to the following, then I could have the opportunity to respond accordingly.
A. In your use of the word {they}, does the {they} represent:
1. All of the subject people?
2. some of the subject people?
3. something else?
B. What is meant by they xxx {a lot} in the subject people?
C. How did you determine that they xxx {a lot}?
D. Is your depiction of the subject people (redacted by respondent)
