Saints and Strangers
This is how the pilgrims referred to the makeup of the Mayflower. The elect were saints i.e. pilgrims. Everyone else, strangers. Is it not how evangelicals view the world today? Add into this the pilgrim’s view of being victims under attack and you really can see how today’s evangelicals with their constant fear mongering about the “war on Christmas”, the absence of prayer from schools or the “rise of sharia law in America” are the direct descendants of the pilgrims.
