   I think you have to have money to be a Wasp.  They could just as easily   
   have been Catholic, and be in the same economic class.  Evangelicals are   
   also technically Protestants, but you have to be an *old* Protestant to   
   be a Wasp.  Maybe it should be White Anglo Saxon Presbyterian, or   
   Episcopalian.  What church do Calvinists go to?
