I agree with what you said. The problem is tht it is important to not fall into the trap liberals so enjoy - judging people as a group by the acts of a few. For me, each man stands on his own. Now, if he belongs to an OFFICIAL group with a spelled out belief system, say that of Islam, that is different. But evangelicals come in all flavors, as do most Christians.

I disagree with many of my evangelical brothers on the rapture as well as the eternal fate of non-believers, but I call myself an evangelical because I’m a firm believer in enacting the great commission on a daily basis.

I may have painted American Evangelicals with a fairly broad brush but in my judgement it is a well deserved broad brush. The belief that America is somehow an exception and that its people are more righteous than the rest of the world is endemic in that community, its leaders and the books/tapes/movies that they produce. That speaks of arrogance and pride that no Christian should have, we are not citizens of this world but of heaven so don’t tie your sense of belonging to any one country and don’t think that because you live here that it will not be brought low. Amerika is now the source of and amazing amount of evil that is being spread around the world, everything from abortion to Sodomy is being aggressively promoted by Amerika and if you don’t think that God won’t judge that then you don’t really believe in a righteous God.
