She's basically told me to fuck off, so that discussion is done. And if "there's no God" doesn't do it, I don't get what will.
Xander: We just saw the zebras mating! Thank you, very exciting... Willow: It was like the Heimlich, with stripes!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Because books.
I always wondered just how evangelical they could be, though, with the acting and all.

Evangelical doesn't always mean conservative or fundamentalist.
There are liberal evangelicals - Fred of Slacktivst blog is one.

Evangelical has been used to mean conservative or fundamentalist (although there's been a split between that).
All evangelical really means is : emphasizing salvation by faith in the atoning death of Jesus Christ through personal conversion, the authority of Scripture, and the importance of preaching as contrasted with ritual
I think some evangelicals believe that everything in the Bible is true and must be taken literally and others believe that the Bible is the true on the matters of faith.
So some will say that the story of Creation is literally true and took place in 6 24 hour days and others (like my grandmother) say that Creation is true and but that it didn't take a literal 24 hour period because we can't know how God works or how God perceives time.

Hee.
I think it's a good thing that the new season starts in 12 days. (Because fic writers need new inspiration.)

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Thanks for the explanation, askye. I grew up in a fundie evangelical home, and the terms are sometimes confusing for me.

It's confusing, and at times it's almost like splitting hairs.

This was I guess an interview the boys recently did related to the animated series?
