6. I think it carries over into
the modern republican party pretty heavily too. The entire thing can be said to be based on revivalism starting back with reagan an then newt in 94. It's just now folks are realizing the revival tent left and they are on their own.

Pretty stark realization and it's about the same time that that particular brand of christianity got in bed with the repubs so it's not too suprising. It's vivid in retrospect and a perfect example of why religion needs to stay out of politics.
