[QUOTE]
"The majority of evangelicals in this country are not represented by a
lot of the strong political claims made by some evangelical leaders.
Talk to 7 out of 10 evangelicals, and they would say they're not
properly served by the divisive political dialogue going on under their
name."
-- Diane Winston

[QUOTE]
"The reality is, so far, despite major blows to the Nuclear
Non-Proliferation Treaty in recent years, we haven't seen an
accompanying spread of nuclear weapons. The number of nuclear states is
nine today, and 20 years ago, it was nine."
