06/24/2005 Entry: "Christans go to college"

"Patrick Henry is trying a complicated experiment: taking young evangelicals who have been raised in rarefied, controlled atmospheres and training them to become political leaders without somehow being corrupted by the secular world’s demands -- or, for that matter, moving to the middle. There are already young, ambitious politicians who talk openly about their relationship with Jesus and still get ahead. Whether someone like Matthew du Mée could actually climb the Republican Party hierarchy is far from clear, however. And, if he and his classmates do succeed, the real question may be how their party changes in response to them."
GOD AND COUNTRY. A college that trains young Christians to be politicians, by Hanna Rosin, The New Yorker, July 27, 2005 issue

And these very very very sheltered young people are going to go into our government and make decisions that affect the whole big world, a world they've not only not experienced, but have and are actively avoiding? I realize bushco is an example of what not to do, but this is the same damn thing.

Christian crazy people, let's give peace a chance. I know you're working for a world you can live in, but I'm working for a world we all can live in. Including you.
