Falwell to Obama - A weeks worth of videos
I didn't bother saying any about Jerry Falwell when “He had an attack where his heart should have been”. I would like to think that he is less and less relevant, but I'm afraid his large shadow will loom over us for a long time. At least some things aren't as bad as they were back in the '80s...
Unfortunately, some things are worse. Joan Bokaer of Theocracy Watch outlines the subtle and stealthy ways that the remnants of the Moral Majority have attempted to turn the United States in to a theocracy with Dominion Theology and Christian Reconstructionism...
Then we have some hope. You would expect presidential candidates to refer to religion as much as possible, be seen in churches, etc... Barack Obama has been throwing around religious rhetoric all throughout his campaign, but in a June 2006 speech that has been equated to presidential candidate John F. Kennedy's Houston speech in 1960 declaring his independence from the Vatican, Sen. Obama "laid down principles for how to discuss faith in a pluralistic society, including the need for religious people to translate their concerns into universal, rather than religion-specific, values during public debate."
