“Crunchy Cons prefer smaller houses, older things, the musty truth of Scripture. ‘Culture is more important than politics and economics’ is a bullet-point, as is ‘Beauty is more important than efficiency… . Small, Local, Old and Particular are almost always better than Big, Global, New and Abstract.’ Meanwhile, ‘The relentlessness of media-driven pop culture deadens our senses to authentic truth, beauty and wisdom.’”
A Washington Post article profiles “Crunchy” Conservative Culture.
ADDITION: Do you fit this profile? Have you observed a similar trend (especially in in your church)? Discuss it here.
