I watched the HBO documentary and the scariest part to me was that Pelosi was so amazed that people like this exist. Her condescending attitude was annoying and I actually came away with a better opinion of the Christian Right than I had before.

Actually, I thought Pelosi was pretty respectful and vice versa.
Frankly, I don't find it that condescending to be surprised by some of what she found. Finding millions of people who believe the Earth is just a few thousand years old and genuinely believe that a demon is waging war for your soul by teaching evolution is pretty mind boggling in this day and age.
Sure, if it was 900AD, perhaps it wouldn't be so amazing.
