He's lamenting an imagined time when we were all Good Christians™ who believed in the One True Holy Book™ (okay, maybe The Two True Holy Books™) and went to church every Sunday. You remember, don't you? A time when we didn't give a damn about anyone less fortunate because, well, if they weren't so damned lazy (or worse! Un-believers) they'd do well all by themselves.

God Fearing Christians™ are what built this country and made it the economic powerhouse that it is. Christian Values™ are the basis for our entire society. If we abandon those myths truths, we will fall out of favor with The One True Almighty God™ and being the loving father he is, he will smite us all.

At his core, Pence is a religious lunatic (apologies for repeating myself).
