These children want a religion that s sturdy and vigorous, aggressively evangelistic, impatient with human frailty and bold in its obedience. They find liberalism boring and tasteless. Conservatives are the adults in the church whom children of liberals can admire and conspire with. Conservatives don t appreciate people who don t fit the system. They can t see the sincerity that drives honest dissidents to both love the church and argue with it.
Liberals have a hard time with the passionate conviction of young zealots.
They are offended by people with more loyalty than intellectual curiosity. Yet the children of the church include both the angst-ridden and the zealous, and these children need the respective ministries of liberals and conservatives.
