Pink will appreciate this, Simon, since he (like me) grew up Baptist. Unlike me, though, he...I'll be kind....drifted away. happy

Seriously, two denominations played a HUGE role in American religious history. The first would be the Methodists, who broke away from the Anglicans. And the second were the Baptists.

The Baptists, in particular, are significant, because they are (in many ways) unique to America. They are an offshoot of the European Anabaptists, but more so of the New World evangelical congregationalists.

If you want to get an idea of how an evangelical Christian in the USA can, at the same time, support war.....study the Baptists. happy
