Blood Entanglements: Evangelicals and Gangs in El Salvador : by Stephen Offutt	2024	3	.pdf	application/pdf	1813	82	51	Furthermore, most gang members believe in God and even consider themselves to be evangelicals: 95.3% of gang members consider their relationship to God as important and 54.9% of them identify as evangelicals (50, see Cruz et al. 2017). Gangs and evangelicals sometimes form unusual alliances to benefit the communities they are both a part of: Christians may seek out gangs for protection (121) and pastors may negotiate with gangs to prevent violence, settle disputes, or determine appropriate punishment for those who violate community rules (130), and churches and Christian organizations may provide aid for gang-members and their families (137).	cache/crda-633.pdf	txt/crda-633.txt
