I find it interesting that if an evangelical, is socially conservative, then that automatically makes them "political." On the other hand if an evangelical is self-described as socially "liberal" or "progressive," then that somehow makes them A POLITICAL - even though they vote for liberal candidates, promote for, or boycott on behalf of liberal causes; or even write intellectually dis-ingenious, and self-righteous hit pieces about Christians who may sincerely think differently than they do.
The truth is socially progressive Millennials are no less political than socially conservative Christians. I guess the only clear cut difference is that their politics happen to be (like the Fundamentalists claimed in the 1980's) "God's politics," that's all... :-)
