Is Miers Evangelical or a Fundamentalist (or both) |
|
I think fundamentalists are almost always evangelical but I don't think it works in reverse.
Any Texas DUers KNOW that church in Dallas? Is it a rolling in the aisles/speaking/taming snakes kinda church or a mainstream church with the word "evangelical" in it?

1. I really don't know the difference. |
|
I thought evangelicals meant they went out and spread the gospel and fundamentalists were literate in their interpretation of the Bible, and that the two sets overlapped.
Might be kinda awesome to have a tongue-speakin', snake-handlin', holy rolling black robed judge on the Supreme Court. They are pretty boring dudes.

Ya, that could liven things up a bit.
I don't really know the difference either but I think there is a difference...hoping some DUers can shed some light on it.

She's a corporatist who "became reborn" because it's a means to power and profit.

3. I don't know the church...... |
|
but it's a well known HUGE church so I doubt there's any snakes or shit there. I think all you have to know is that's she's a born again evangelical who believes the bible is unerring. Nuff' said.

4. It's a Dallas Republican church. |
|
Which means it's all about the money, the business and social contacts (the money), and Republican politics (the money).
