虽然福音派被普遍描述为主要关心包括堕胎和同性恋在内的社会问题，但近年来有更多的报道称，福音派领袖、教会和机构将焦点转移到环境问题上。福音派是否将注意力转移到环境问题上，并在他们对环境的看法上变得更加进步？此外，福音派是否如某些人所言，在环保问题上分裂？通过对三份福音派期刊（《今日基督教》、《旅居者》和《世界》）从1984年到2010年的内容分析，我发现不仅人们对环境问题的关注随着时间的推移而增加，而且讨论也变得越来越两极化和政治化。随着温和的福音派在环境问题上转向左翼，这一变化代表着共和党和基督教右翼之间潜在的重要决裂。即使在高度信教、自认为是福音派的政治精英中，观点和政治倾向的多样性也比通常认为的要大。最后，我讨论了福音派精英、传统基督教右翼领袖和共和党之间缺乏一致性的影响。
While evangelicals have been popularly portrayed as caring primarily about social issues including abortion and homosexuality, there have been more reports in recent years of evangelical leaders, congregations, and institutions shifting focus to environmental issues. Are evangelicals shifting attention to and becoming more progressive in their views on the environment? Moreover, are evangelicals fracturing over the issue of environmentalism, as some have suggested? Using content analysis of three evangelical periodicals (Christianity Today, Sojourners, and World) from 1984 to 2010, I find not only that attention to environmental issues has increased over time, but also that the discussion has grown increasingly polarized and politicized. This change represents a potentially important break with the Republican Party and the Christian Right, as moderate evangelicals have moved to the left on environmental issues. Even among highly religious, self-identified evangelical political elites, there is more diversity in views and political leanings than is commonly assumed. I conclude with a discussion of the implications of a lack of alignment between evangelical elites, traditional Christian Right leaders, and the Republican Party.
