===Evangelical Protestantism===
* [[Carlton Pearson]] - [[Tulsa, Oklahoma]]-based African American preacher and theologian, long a protegé of [[Oral Roberts]]&mdash;also an advisor to Bush on faith-based initiatives, had a TV show, etc.,&mdash;whose theology began to change in the late 1990s, when he decided that there is no Hell (or, more precisely, turned around to a rather existentialist view of Hell being something we make on earth, but not part of the afterlife). This eventually evolved into the [[Doctrine of Inclusion]]: that everyone is saved. As a result, his enormous [[Higher Dimensions]] [http://www.higherd.org/] megachurch slowly collapsed, though, with his new theology, he again has a congregation numbering at least into the hundreds. Fascinating figure. Recent hour-long radio story about him on [[This American Life]] [http://www.thislife.org/], but as of when I'm writing they haven't archived it to a permanent address. Founder of a Christian music festival that I believe is called [[Azuza]], as well. -- [[User:Jmabel|Jmabel]] | [[User talk:Jmabel|Talk]] 19:24, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
