The Coming Evangelcal Collapse, sounds right to me.

Drudge links to this blog post reprinted in the Christian Science Monitor, arguing that evangelicalism, in the United States is about to collapse, http://www.csmonitor.com/2009/0310/p09s01-coop.html
This sounds about right to me. I've been saying for years, to anyone who would listen, which basically means Becky, that Christianity in the United States was about to end. I sometimes think I know what it must have been like to be one of the last Priests of the Roman God's; just before the Christians started crucifying them.
Hey Nietzsche, acting like the old Prophet Elijah, called out Christianity well over a hundred years ago. He said, "Your God is dead that is why he doesn't answer by fire." Evangelical Christianity responded with a bumper sticker. If the leaders of American evangelical Christianity were alive in Elijah's day they'd be the ones trying to explain away, in extremely erudite and scholarly language, the fact that their God had not answered by fire.
No matter. God is not dead. He still answers by fire those who have the chutzpah to call fire down from heaven. The kingdom of God is not co-equal with American evangelicalism perhaps now we will finally bury that odious, bubble boy religion, doctrine of the sovereignty of God. The faster they die off and stop wasting God's money on trying to get, "The World" to like them, the better off the Kingdom of God will be.
