18. Yes they are
but it isn't necessarily a question of Evangelicals. Gen Y grew up in a time of great prosperity and more than any generation before it has become and addict to the TV and commercialism. They need the newest overpriced from GAP and the latest Brittney CD. If they have an opinion it is from the barest tidbits they happen to hear on the news which leaves many of them biased towards the conservatives. Liberal professors are afraid to speak their opinion lest they be called ivory tower liberals and harassed. With the Young Republican's in Texas making a list of biased professors I can't really blame them. The evangelicals are making some headway but for the most part they are laughed at.

The actions of the evangelicals on campus are usually ignored or laughed at because most of these kids could care less about religion than they do about politics. If they are strongly religious it is from their parents, not themselves. As always though Ray you can't post anything without getting a dig in at the Catholic Church. You take a pressing issue before the left and turn it into just another sales pitch for your website...sad really
