Good thing she hasn't discovered Cornerstone Festival yet

It looks like Claudia Parsons has never heard of the evangelical movement, much less of its music festivals. Creation Fest is "an unusual place to get baptized," what with all the long hair and rock and roll? Unusual by whose standards, Episcopalians? Or this paragraph:
One in four Americans count themselves as evangelical Protestants, a growing movement with serious clout in a country where religion and politics often mix. Creation is officially non-denominational and it drew some Catholics, but the rhetoric of most speakers was that of "born again" Christians.
This would be right at home in a news story from back when I was a toddler. In reality, Reuters published it earlier today.
