The Bible Belt 2
I Just found an excellent page on the \"Bible Belt\" which includes Geographical, Political and Cultural Contexts.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bible_Belt
The \"Bible Belt\" is a slang term used for a geographical region in the South and the midsection of the United States.
The \"Great Awakening\", which had swept the British Isles, infiltrated the American Colonies at the end of the seventeenth century. The Southern states, especially, received this \"new birth\" with fervor.
