Fundamentalists Everywhere!

Not just Freddy Adu; Harriet Miers too!

At least I assume she is after reading her biography file in World Magazine:
Church membership: Valley View Christian Church, but the church is in the middle of a split that began when Pastor Ron Key did not go along with the decision of the board of elders that he reduce his leadership role and agree to emphasize a contemporary worship service so as to attract more members. Ms. Miers is apparently siding with the group that will stick with Mr. Key and form a new church that will give half its revenues to mission work; Valley View has cut back its missions support.
I mean, how can a person leave a church over contemporary worship and not be a fundamentalist?

I believe Valley View Christian Church is part of the Church of Christ denomination. I read that in some article about Miers. So hardly fundamentalist, perhaps not even Christian.

As Dave noted, this post is thoroughly tongue in cheek. It matters not a whit to me in relationship to her SC nomination whether HM is an evangelical or not. In fact, a mysterious Paleoinformant known as "Lumpy" brought to my attention the fact that HM attends St. Johns Episcopal Church in Washington. SJEC is hardly evangelical and is avowedly gay-friendly.
