- Summary:
- Postwar fundamentalism is marked by optimism, mass revival meetings and disdain for worldly politics. But current events prod evangelical Christians into the political arena. Dismayed by Supreme Court rulings banning school prayer and encouraged by the Goldwater '64 campaign, conservative Christians rise up to launch a nationwide revolt against sex education.
