Bible in hand, Micah Armstrong strides into the middle of a small group of students at the University of Alabama and starts preaching.
You're going to hell if you drink beer, he says. You're going to hell if you curse. You're going to hell if you smoke dope, masturbate, fornicate, watch a Hollywood movie, listen to rap, read Harry Potter books or attend most Protestant churches, Armstrong says.
Homosexuals are hellbound, too, he says. So are women with low-cut tops, short hair, pants or jobs.
"Women have two places: In front of the sink and behind the vacuum," Armstrong proclaims.
"Ooooh," moans the crowd, now swelled to at least 250 people.
Armstrong springs forward on one foot, thumping his Bible as he lands. "Yeee-ah," shouts a heckler, mimicking Howard Dean's campaign scream and dressed like Armstrong with a low-slung cap, backpack and suspenders.
And the show goes on. For four hours.
Known to a reluctant flock as Brother Micah, Armstrong holds a near mythic status on college campuses across the eastern United States. He's spent the last two years visiting a circuit of 28 schools, preaching a fire-and-brimstone message of repentance to anyone who will listen.
"If you don't believe your sin will get you sent to hell you don't fear God. If you don't fear God, you don't know God," he told students during a stop last week at Alabama, often ranked among the nation's top party schools.
Next, Armstrong says, it's back to the University of Mississippi. He's also been to Florida State, Cincinnati, Georgia Southern, Central Florida, North Carolina and Florida Atlantic, to name a few.
