For me, the "evangelical" implies something far beyond just the term "christian". I guess it implies that said imaginary person is going to be trying to convince me to believe what they do. <BR/><BR/>I don't want them to. And it's got little to do with whether they are christian, jewish, catholic or muslim.<BR/><BR/>I guess I think the term "evangelical christian" means something different depending on how involved one is in the whole crazy differentiation of christians. I don't think "evangelical christians" should take it personally. It's not a comment on their beliefs as much as it is the perceived style.trrishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11840209409286594625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35248477.post-51624792839035515122007-06-10T22:55:00.000-04:002007-06-10T22:55:00.000-04:00"the terms fundamentalist and Evangelical are not ..."the terms fundamentalist and Evangelical are not interchangeable.
