Unfortunately the GOP have turned many people off to Christianity. I live in NYC and whilr the Churches hrre are sometimes politcally active they tend to lean to the Democrats.

Chistianity is a religion of treating others with dignity and respect but unfortunately Christians of all stripes forget that.
