New Sci Fi Novel: Francis Schaeffer, Galactic Warlord

Hey guys, just wanted you to know that when I was in the hospital I started plotting out a new novel featuring Francis Schaeffer as a sci-fi character. The novel's kind of a thought experiment, to see if I can write a convincingly interesting sci-fi novel that does not explicitly endorse my own pro-evolutionary views. Yes, I know, very hard, but worth a try anyway. I'll give you more details if the project makes it beyond the extensive planning I've already done for it.

Francis Schaeffer and Adolf Hitler: A sci-fi couple made in heaven

Francis Schaeffer was a famous evangelical apologist, who was pretty much a failed art critic, while Hitler was a failed artist, who became a successful politician. I think the contrasting views of these men would make for great sci-fi, especially since Schaeffer is in many ways more similar than most evangelicals would like, to Hitler (he had intense political aspirations that went hand in hand with his religious ones). Tell me what you think though.
