has stirred up the sleeping bigotry that resides within the evangelical movement. The recent remarks of Phil Roberts is an example of the new boldness in expressing these unpopular opinions. When he spoke, he became the de facto leader of the Klan, the white supremacists etc. And now when the evangelicals begin to gather for their spring and summer revivals and picnics and whatever, they will look around and find the new converts holding hands with their children. It will be interesting to gage their response. Will they recoil in horror, or will they resign themselves or possibly embrace the new paradigm?
