Matthew Mirable, A thoughtful response and perhaps you’re right on the problem of self-diagnosis and arm chair labeling. I did write this piece while sitting in my armchair. And I don’t know your context. But in the United States, it seems evident that something like evangelical privilege does exists alongside disdain for Evangelicalism in some sectors (academic elites, for example). I have seen both, living next door to a major secular university. Evangelicals tend to emphasize the latter, forgetting that no Presidential candidate confides their atheism or agnosticism, and that Evangelicals are a powerful voting bloc that in 2016 elected the President, both houses of Congress, and are more or less stacking the Supreme Court. I think the privilege is hidden (as seem to be the case with privilege of other kinds) when one doesn’t cross any of the boundaries within which it functions. Cross one of those, and I think it will become visible to you.
