"Are you really so scared of terrorists that you'll dismantle the structures that made America what it is? ... If you are, you let the terrorist win. Because that is exactly, specifically, his goal, his only goal: to frighten you into surrendering the rule of law. That's why they call him 'terrorist'. He uses terrifying threats to induce you to degrade your own society."

I'm reading a couple articles that were mentioned in a Revolution in Jesusland posting about how young evangelical voters are not necessarily Republicans (thank God this is finally starting to happen!).
The ABC News article says that those interviewed for the story were at "a concert and a rally in New York City, a huge gathering of Christian youth came together to decry the coarsening of culture." One of the quotes lept out at me:
"What should be done to stop glamorizing the things that are destroying my friends, your friends -- like drugs, alcohol and sex?" cried a young evangelical.
