Are you guys really that afraid of these types (who you've reduced to a simple stereotype)? There's tremendous fluidity within the Revival Tent crowd. They go after each other all the time, much like wack lefties and weird righties who attack their bedmates. Watch the Trinity Broadcasting Network if you can get it. Insane shows with insane hosts, so out there that mainstream "Christian America" won't touch it. And much of it is really funny, esp after a cocktail or two.

The issue isn't so much Belief and Dogmatism than it is the use of the Cross as cover for secular power grabs. Bush himself may truly believe everything he says about religion, but the werewolves around him don't, not for a moment of silence.
