Membership of a group is not determinative of the individuals comprising that group.  

Even Pentacostals have trailing-edge members that drift into sanity.  :-)

Bell curve identity politics?

You could probably play bell curve identity pin ball - drop in a meme or a talking point just so and it will spend the next few weeks ricocheting around pulling floaters out of some groups and into other groups.

I suppose this isn't far from what happens already, but if you had some cool graphics and bells it would be easier to get the high score.

Well, okay, that's true, but the primary experience I've had with a Pentacostal -- think I've told this story before -- was this preacher who used to stand on campus and yell at us between classes.  Called all the girls "whores" and shouted at us for our "demon drink and drugs and sex" and stuff (which, of course, only got people to cheer for booze, drugs and sex).

Until he called the wrong guy's girlfriend a whore and got hit in the face with a large Styrofoam cup of coke.  Everybody laughed.  Even the cops got a kick out of it and refused to do anything.  ("Well, ya called his girl a whore!")  Didn't see him again after that.
