Evangelicals are Churchgoers but not all Churchgoers are Evangelicals.

Catholics for instance. Lutherans and Methodists are typically not included in their numbers either.

Typically Evangelicals are defined as Baptists and most Reformist churches (Disciples of Christ, Churches of Christ, etc...).

Whoah, whoah, whoah. DOC are in NO way evangelical. We're practically UCC. -- nm - Ender Mar 3, 08:37 3

  - We came from the "restoration" movement, but the denominations you're really thinking of split off from us because we weren't strict enough. -- nm - Ender Mar 3, 08:42 1
    - Yes, restoration sorry. Reformation was completely different and I shouldn't try to multi-task. - spamlet Mar 3, 08:46
