In a word, "yes."  It isn't only that the younger generation dismisses their bullshit it is that they are dying out and the demographics of the country are rapidly turning against them.  Even with the influx of Hispanics it must be understood that the bulk of them are catholics and these evangelical shitheads don't consider them xtians.... except when they want to pretend that there are still plenty of xtians around!
