I also learned today that some people think Eric Metaxas is “one the premier Christian historians in the world”:

Eric Metaxas, one of the premier Christian historians in the world, hits the nail on the head.
This perversion, on a national scale, was started by the Obama administration.
It is still those demons behind it all today. pic.twitter.com/c92ftGxcGO
