I'm highly sceptical about an overnight change. Yes, Internet has changed rules like it did with printing press - libertarianism has exploded since 90's, especially Austrians who rose virtually from nothing.

I'm still waiting for evidence of this.[/quote] My original point wasn't to imply that fundamental Christians
