Christians are raised from birth to not cultivate their critical thinking skills because critical thought leads to people leaving the church.
The vast majority of Republicans are Christian ideologues who have no ability to think for themselves. They defer their thinking to the church and to political leaders. This leads to a population that believes determining truth is a matter of proclamation rather than observation.
In short, conservatism is politics for stupid, gullible people.
some do escape thier ultra conservative bubble, its usually it becomes to hostile for the said young person to subscribe to it, or they see evidence that contradicts what Christianity provides. Some is raised religiously, but semi- seperated for it, until maga came along and they fell right back into it.
