American religion changed dramatically in its first 75 years. Episcopalians and Congregationalists largely disappeared. Catholics rose by 7x. Methodists went from being a rounding error to the largest Christian group.

The Glorious Revolution of 1688 really wasn't that "glorious". Parliament deposed King James II, invited William of Orange to be a figurehead, and passed the Bill of Rights. This is regarded as the moment when divine right died and constitutional monarchy was born

@maggiemphillips Unitarians cannot be WASPs since they’re not Protestant also most mainline Protestant groups are about even in partisanship also the SBC is majority WASP

@LinkofSunshine I mean American elections have never been particularly huge landslides, Nixon was the last person to get more than 60% of the popular vote and the post era of good feelings record is 61% by Lyndon

Why is American politics so insanely optimized? We’ve had like 3 elections in a row (and 5/7) literally within 2% Basically every other country in the world has regular blowouts

@NathanBozeman2 I’m not saying you have to, as a Christian, have my exact interpretation, I’m just saying you have to assent in some form to it being true. There are multiple interpretations where the interpreter believes Genesis to be 100% accurate

@PredisioJAdams I don't think that's right, unless you assume that "true" can only mean "interpreting this the way I do." There are other ways of interpreting Genesis. The question is: Which one is correct?

Fundamentalists who make your view of the earth "a Gospel issue" are a major reason many people leave the faith. Your view of creation has implications for how you understand the Gospel, but it is not a rejection of the Gospel to hold to an old earth. And it's dumb to say it is.
Eric Hovind@erichovind

Six literal days. This is not a side issue. This goes straight to the foundation of the Gospel. When Frank Turek suggests Genesis may allow for long ages, and that death could have existed before sin, we need to follow that idea to its logical conclusion. Let’s walk it through. Why did Jesus rise from the dead? To conquer death. Why was He dead? Because He became the sacrifice for sin. Why is there a penalty for sin? Because the wages of sin is death (Romans 6:23). Death is not just part of life. It is the consequence of sin. Now here is where the common response comes in. Some will say animal death existed before the Fall, and only human death came through sin. But that does not fit what Scripture actually says. Romans 5:12 says death entered the world through sin, not just humanity. And Romans 8 makes it even clearer. The whole creation groans. The creation was subjected to futility. The creation itself will be set free from its bondage to decay. This is not talking about humans alone. This is the entire created order. Before sin, creation was very good (Genesis 1:31). There was no curse. There was no bondage to decay. There was no groaning, suffering, and death as we see now. After sin, the ground is cursed (Genesis 3:17). Thorns and decay enter the world. The entire creation falls under a curse. Death, all death, is tied to the Fall. If animals were already dying, suffering, and going extinct for millions of years before Adam, then the curse did not introduce death, it just continued it. That means the world God called very good was already filled with death and suffering. That creates a much bigger problem. If death is not the result of sin across creation, then what exactly is Jesus reversing? The Gospel is not just about saving humans in isolation. It is about the restoration of all creation. Jesus came to undo what Adam did. Adam’s sin brought death, corruption, and a cursed creation. Christ’s work brings life, restoration, and a new heaven and new earth where there is no more death. If death was always here, then it is not an enemy, it is just part of God’s design. But Scripture calls death an enemy (1 Corinthians 15:26), not a tool. This matters. Because if you redefine the origin of death, you redefine the reason for the cross. And if death is not the result of sin, then the resurrection is no longer a victory over an enemy. It becomes something else entirely. This is not a minor disagreement. This is about whether the Bible’s story, from Genesis to the resurrection, actually holds together. Genesis is not just a polemic against the Egyptians. It is true history revealed by God himself. Get the beginning wrong, and the Gospel itself starts to unravel.

@Empty_America I guess it would also include Calvinism and Methodism (Lutherans probably only satisfy W and P), which are still recognizable but not as aesthetically pleasing as Episcopals

The other thing to understand is that the "P" in WASP didn't mean what you might think. They had zero cultural relationship with anything like modern evangelicalism, southern Baptists, etc. Especially in NYC, many were attending very high Episcopal Churches, like this:

Been reading a lot of old books satirizing traditional WASP culture and I would love for someone smart to explain to me why Catholicism became the aspirational right wing trad country club aesthetic instead of Protestantism…? 🤔

Conservatism needs an intellectual and philosophical grounding and among religious conservatives, only Catholics retained any kind of intellectual infrastructure capable of promoting and justifying conservative beliefs. There’s no alternative for conservative elites.
