8. Neocon refers to a specific type of conservative

Former foreign policy "liberals" who follow the ideas of U of Chicago prof. Leo Strauss or his adherents such as Wolfowitz, Perle.

If Zig Ziegler didn't sign the PNAC manifesto, he's not a neocon.

10. meaning he wasn't a christian & now he is?

like he's born-again? then yes.

sorry to be picky, but the term is being slung about & robbed of its very important meaning.

5. ever wonder what "Zig's" real name is? (you're going to love this)

Ol' Zig was born Hillary Hinton Ziglar.

I guess he figgered out that evangelical used car salesmen throughout the country would not flock to hear someone named "Hillary" speak.
