I'm not sure if I agree with this guy, or if he's just been swamped in bad media. . . The mainstream media has always sought the death of the Religious Right and Culture Wars, but somehow they continue.

That’s what the left wants people to believe. They’ll have a rude awakening one of these days. Hopefully sooner than later.

They been outvoted and outmaneuvered, since the “culture” has left them behind...


Since Obama has mentioned that we are no longer a Christian nation, I have posted this here, on Free Republic, several times — that the election of Obama is God’s judgment upon this nation...

A quote from a website (just general information...)

Abington Township School District v. Schempp — decided on June 17, 1963 — was the second so-called “school prayer” decision (the first came a year earlier in Engel v. Vitale). But it was the most far-reaching — prohibiting school officials from organizing or leading prayers and devotional Bible reading in public schools.

It’s been a long time since then, and I remember the time “before” and “after” for prayer and studying things of the Bible in school. For example, there was a time when, as a student, that I was given an assignment to learn and memorize a certain Psalm in school, as part of my school “homework” and assignment, to be recited in class.

And then, shortly afterwards, there was *nothing* any more of the Bible or Psalms or prayers or anything of God...

I would mark the time that we stopped being a Christian nation from that time (definitely so) forward.

God had given us over 40 years to “change things” but we haven’t and so now we have the “judgment of God” in the form and nature of Obama, designed specifically to *destroy the nation*...

I remember when God was “dead”. Turned out, he was just spending time with all the souls of murdered, unborn babies.

Some have, I suppose. The Cal Tomases, the Rick Warren’s, and their ilk. Not most of us. Those who ask the question should turn up at their local Tea Parties on April 15th...

America elected Barack Hussein Obama. We’re in very bad shape.

The "Right" lost the culture war more than 40 years ago.

I'd say that circa Liberty Valance [1962] was about the last era that the "Right" had any influence over the culture.

By the mid-1960s, the "War" was completely lost.

The problem for the "Right" was that they were so gullible and so naive and so trusting in people that they never even realized that there had been a "War", much less that they had lost it.

The article is pure bunk.

It simply points up how out of touch with reality the MSM is.

The left is DESPERATLY pushing this meme.

Meghan mccain was on TV last night (cnn) proudly pushing the homosexual marriage mantra.

CNN just prior had the christians have hijacked the republican party.

It is all about trying to make christianity VERBOTEN in political discourse. OR to be a christian is to be discredited before you open your mouth.

It is coordinated and orwellian.

christian = thoughtcrime.

Almost anything written by a press monkey has to be filtered through your own common sense lenses.

The Soulless Left has almost complete control of the news media, the entertainment media, and the public education system. Victory looks certain to them, and they are claiming it.

But the fight is not over, not at my house. I’ve turned off the Soulless Left’s news media years ago, I don’t watch their entertainment programming, the grandkids have been in private school for the last half dozen years. The church we are in keeps knocking out walls to make room for more people, so I know its not just us, and I think other churches in town are seeing the same thing.

Homeschooling movement is stronger than ever and growing.
Homeschooling families are LARGE.
Homeschooling families have multigenerational vision.

Homeschooling will be the next target of the left.

Are schools having an Easter vacation or a spring break? Has Santa Claus replaced the Nativity? Are we celebrating the resurrection of Jesus or the spring bunny? Is gay marriage happening?

The GOP gave up. The MSM has taken sides solidly to the point where other views are ignored.

Things look bleak right now, but whether we’re winning or losing I will never give up the fight. We may ultimately lose, but I’ll never surrender.

We’re about to take Pregnancy Care Centers which have traditionally been in the suburbs and place them in the innercity, where minorities and college students, those most affected, reside.

Remember, God is in control.

We are allowing the pursuit of perfection be the enemy of the good.

The Libs absolutely love it.

The resurgence of traditional Christian mores and culture that began in the late 1970s has ended.

What "resurgence" is the author refering to? From my perspective, the United States has been moving farther from its traditional Christian morals for decades. I saw no "resurgence" in the late 70s.

Social conservatism hasn't died among the base as Rudy Giuliani found out last year. But, RINOs and even many in the conservative elite media are intentionally ignoring the issues. That isn't going to work any better than big-government "conservatism" did for Bush.
