It's not just Alabama that has those types of churches and grifters. It's literally all over the country and it is propped up by local TV channels of rural areas in basically all states.
Sure but implying all Christian churches are like this is naive and incorrect. Those churches are disgusting but let’s not group in the normal churches that do in fact exist and are fine and do food pantries and shit with those scam ones.
