Not sure, the late '70's and early '80's are pretty much a blur.

Here's an interesting and relevant take on this issue from Richard Dawkins, with specific emphasis on Rick Perry's squirrelly views on evolution:

Just on Fresh Air today they had an interview with Rachel Tabachnick about this subject.
http://www.npr.org/programs/fresh-air/
New Apostolic Reformation
The Evangelicals Engaged In Spiritual Warfare
A new Christian movement that seeks to take dominion over politics, business and culture in preparation for the end times and Jesus' return is becoming more of a presence in American politics. Rachel Tabachnick, who researches the religious right, explains its beliefs and influences.
Good listen IMHO.
Scared and pissed me off at the same time.

Damn! The Rev is just warming up.

You know, I used to try talking to God, they told me it worked in church.
Well, I reckon God must of been too busy running the universe or something to waste his time with me.
Or maybe he just wanted me to figure it out on my own, which is pretty much what I did.
Now I got nothin' against God, and if he works for you I think that's great.
But if he was on my payroll, I'd fire 'em. I'm having to do my work and his too.
See you fellers in Hell,

I ate more than one.
Not what I'd call a religious experience, but it was damn interesting at times.

If I thought I could bear one more psychedelic hangover, I'd be willing to try.
On second though, I'd go fishing and get in a pissing contest with the walleyes.
