Or maybe not.
It sounds as though the writer of this piece from the Dallas Morning News really, truly WANTS the younger generation of evangelicals to be a departure from the older crowd which seem to value the lives of unborn children, protecting the institution of marriage, etc.
Problem is the article makes a poor case for even demonstrating its thesis.
The writer cites that the "Under 30's" evangelicals are MORE pro-life than the older generations, they want to even use the law to encourage marriage for the sake of children, they want the tax codes to reflect less burden for people who work, etc...
The main difference that the Pew Study made that the article picks up on is the concern the younger evangelicals have about "climate change."
Color me skeptical that Young Evangelicals are organizing, marching, and rallying votes to support "Inconvenient (Non)Truths." (Speaking of which the Brits have found 9 significant documented falsehoods in the Gore film that earned him the Nobel Peace Prize. And you know they had to award him the "Peace" prize as opposed to the prize for "Science.")
The writer cites an opening for Democrats with this group. Which is fine if he wishes to believe it - but because some people think that Alice in Wonderland is an historical biography - doesn't make it one!
