On Evangelicalism: (College course of Religion and Politics) Evangelicals only believe the mission of the United States is to save this earth from communism and the way to do that is to save communism itself. That is the universal acceptance of patriotism and politeness to all regardless of what they did and who they are. Like Episcopalism, they believe that all human beings deserve the same respect and same treatment; to be loved equally and to share all that life has to offer. Supposedly, there were 5 awakenings in US history, but I only identified 3 real ones. Now the evangelicals want a 6th awakening.
Sinclair Lewis (The Jungle). Burt Lancaster stars as Elmer Gantry, a streetwise, fast-talking traveling salesman working the road in the 1920s in this adaptation of Sinclair Lewis's 1927 novel. Always on the lookout for the next moneymaking scheme, Elmer attracts the attention of a group of traveling evangelists, charming their leader, the saintly Sister Susan Falconer. Elmer becomes her smooth-talking preaching sidekick, plagiarizing speeches to promote himself above all else as he successfully exploits the folks of America's Corn Belt. The film features charismatic performances by Lancaster in the title role and Shirley Jones as a tough prostitute.

Howl like a dog:
