Tony Campolo America Quotations

When you talk about evangelicals, don't forget that a significant proportion of the evangelical community is African American. And most African Americans - well over 90 percent, thoroughly evangelical, thoroughly biblical - will probably vote Democratic.

In America, evangelical churches have often been bastions of conservatism, providing support for the status quo.

I contend that, in spite of all that might be said about Watergate, Richard Nixon was good for the poor people of America.

I applaud the growing commitment of Evangelicals to the needs of the poor and oppressed in urban America.

Religion, for better or for worse, has been politicized in blatant ways that have seldom been equaled in American elections.

Because of the increase in life longevity, America can now assume that at any given time three, and perhaps four, former presidents will still be alive, even when the current president is occupying the White House.

If America is too arrogant, too prideful to repent, it's not the kind of country that God wants it to be.

If we were to set out to establish a religion in polar opposition to the Beatitudes Jesus taught, it would look strikingly similar to the pop Christianity that has taken over the airwaves of North America.
