Could there be a Bible-reading preacher on a show who is actually loving and kind?”.

After the controversy that the previous tweet aroused, Wilson, who specifies that he is not a Christian, Has published another series of tweets to clarify his position: “Of course it is true that the evangelical/political coalition is doing a lot of damage to our country.

They should also be honored in the media.”
