As far as I can tell from the Philosophy Board, the Christians here run the gamut from Calvinist (well, maybe I'm the only one), fundamentalist (not many, and they tend not to stay long), evangelical (the most common of the more 'conservative' people), to more liberal sorts (Martin Guerre, mind if I throw you in here?).

"Die Deutschen meinen, daß die Kraft sich in Härte und Grausamkeit offenbaren müsse, sie unterwerfen sich dann gerne und mit Bewunderung:[...]. Daß es Kraft giebt in der Milde und Stille, das glauben sie nicht leicht."
"The Germans believe that power must reveal itself in hardness and cruelty and then submit themselves gladly and with admiration[...]. They do not believe readily that there is power in meekness and calm."
