	Wikipedia: Antimodernism
		Antimodernism is a philosophical orientation that is somewhat difficult to define, but in essence constitutes a rejection of modernist ideals and behaviours in favour of what is perceived as a purer historical or even prehistorical way of life and consciousness of mind.
		The notion of antimodernity was primarily borne as a part of disillusionment with Europe's industrial revolution in the 19th century, which oversaw one of the most dramatic periods of social change in human history.
		Antimodernity in today's world is often popularly known of in the form of religious fundamentalism, with more militant forms of Islamism and right-wing Christianity gaining more prominentcy during the 1990s.

		For example, Lighthall's antimodern novel, The Master of Life, was dramatized into a modern spectacle for visitors to Lake Champlain in the summer of 1909.
		Indeed, antimodernism often "coexisted with enthusiasm for material progress."(f.6) A transatlantic phenomenon with decidedly local manifestations in Germany, England, the United States and Canada, antimodernism was neither monolithic nor static but varied over time and space.(f.7)

	Alterdestiny: Antimodernism in America
		One may argue that these strains of antimodernism have been in rural American culture as far back as the early twentieth century with the Scopes Trial and the popularity of Billy Sunday, and probably much farther than that if you get back into the rural Baptist churches of the South.
		Of course, there is a great deal of difference between Osama and Santorum as well but that's more obvious.
