...That's a sentiment echoed in the U.S. by postdenominational Protestantism, a religious movement that links thousands of U.S. churches in informal networks outside the boundaries of mainline Protestant or evangelical denominations. The churches fill their services with rock 'n' roll, recovery counseling and a nonjudgmental approach to a wide range of life-styles. The movement has been making increasing use of computer communications technologies. Says University of Southern California sociologist Donald Miller, who has followed the rapid growth of postdenominational churches: "There's definitely a congruence between these technologies and the outlook of these churches...

...years ago, hostility toward Japanese Americans was so strong that I thought they were going to reopen the detention camps here in California. Now talk about the "Arkansas-Asia Connection" is broadening that hatred to include all Asian Americans. I cannot help making a comparison to the anti-Jewish sentiment in Nazi Germany when Jewish people were successful in business. Today Asians are a success story.
