His audience was mostly puritan as was the case in the 18th century. His audience was probably scared mindless because his sermons usually included scary and vivid description of suffering, hell, sins, the devil, which was all supposed to scare you into being a better christian.

Jonathen Edwards delivered " Sinners in The hands of an Angry God" during the Great Awakening, a period in which religion assumed great importance in people's lives. Edward's sermon might have given faithful members of the church a sense of security and satisfaction, and reaffirmed the value of their attendance to church. Those who did not belong to the church, and those whose lives, according to Edwards, were liable to be cause for punishment might have felt fear, guilt, and doubt. Those who did not believe what Edwards said might have a strong sense of animosity to Edwards on hearing the sermon.

Mars2501 [29]

The article you mean is "Repressed Brits, evil Mexicans, Arab villains: why are Hollywood's animated movies full of racist stereotypes?" in The Guardian.

One example of the racial stereotyping is that the characters in the movie which are there for comic relief (so not given roles with a "serious" message) are voiced predominantly by black actors, which replicates the pattern of placing black characters in roles of providing amusement, but which are not treated seriously.
