Religious Rights Scares Conservative Christians | by Ben
I spotted this story over at kuro5hin, pointing to an editorial by Chuck Baldwin, a conservative Baptist minister who's angry at the direction the Republican Party is taking. The original article is an interesting read. I really like this quote:
It also appears painfully obvious to me that in order to sit at the king's table, the Religious Right is willing to compromise any principle, no matter how sacred. As such, it has become a hollow movement. Sadly, the Religious Right is now a movement without a cause, except the cause of advancing the Republican Party.
Beyond that, the Religious Right is actively assisting those who would destroy our freedoms. On the whole, the Religious Right comports with those within the Bush administration and within the Republican Party who, in the name of "fighting terrorism," are actually terrorizing constitutional protections of our liberties.
It does seem that a lot of conservative voices are starting to appear with objections to the way the Republicans are running their party. I wonder how this will affect their unity over the next four years.
