Read Chris Hedges' book 'American Fascists: The Christian Right and the War on America' (Free Press 2006) for insight into this cult. Many of the signs of fascism -- as defined by serious scholars of the political ideology -- are present in right-wing Christian groups: extreme nationalism, militarism, scapegoating of vulnerable segments of the population, obsession with national security, corporate power protected & labor suppressed, disdain for intellectuals, etc.

Very timely ad. Keep religion out of our government.
1980--the year Reagan started to destroy the middle class and commit treason with his actions. What a dark time and we're still paying for it.

If you, your wife and your kids have different religious views then your family has probllems as a unit.

"Good or bad" Christianity depends on how well you put faith into action, elected position or not.

It is amazing that in 1980 they even thought about having a religious test for public office.
