336pp. The Begining of the Bible Belt. In Southern Cross Christine Leigh Heyrman reveals the surprising paradox at the heart of America's" Bible Belt": how such currently conservative religious groups as the Southern Baptists and Methodists evolved out of an evangelical Protestantism that began with totally different social and political attitudes. What happened? What changed? How did the very religious groups that at first offended most white southerners eventually come to claim the soul of the South?. Seller Inventory # 004471
