The Moral Majority is nothing NEW…

“If we are going to save America and evangelize the world, we cannot accommodate secular philosophies that are diametrically opposed to Christian truth ...

We need to pull out all the stops to recruit and train 25 million Americans to become informed pro-moral activists whose voices can be heard in the halls of Congress.”

“I am convinced that America can be turned around if we will all get serious about the Master's business. It may be late, but it is never too late to do what is right.

We need an old-fashioned, God-honoring, Christ-exalting revival to turn American back to God. America can be saved!”

"The national government... will maintain and defend the foundations on which the power of our nation rests. It will offer strong protection to Christianity as the very basis of our collective morality."

"Today Christians... stand at the head of our country. I pledge that I will never tie myself to parties who want to destroy Christianity... We want to fill our culture again with the Christian spirit.... We want to burn out all the recent immoral developments in literature, in the theatre, and in the press - in short, we want to burn out the poison of immorality which has entered into our whole life and culture as a result of liberal excess during the past... few years."

To Anti:

This thread wasn't about political strategy. It was about the late Mr. Hitchens pointing out the role of Christianity. In turn, it's the job of my generation to recognize this, taking steps to minimalize the cultural and political influence of religion.

Christianity, and religion specifically, has it's place. I won't deny that. But I won't say that place is one of power - sure, let people be slaves, just don't let them extend that to the rest of us.

Ahhh .. the Nazis were Darwinist evolutionists.

Some people will say anything to get elected.
 
And the fact that the POPE was complicit in the commission of genocide...?

No, he wasn't.

Hitler, the War, and the Pope
Ronald J. Rychlak (Author)


Was Pope Pius XII a Nazi Sympathizer?

For almost 50 years, a controversy has raged about Pope Pius XII. Was the Pope who had shepherded the Church through World War II a Nazi sympathizer? Was he, as some have dared call him, Hitler's pope? Did he do nothing to help the Jewish people in the grips of the Holocaust?

In a thoroughly researched and meticulously documented analysis of the historical record, Ronald Rychlak has gotten past the anger and emotion and uncovered the truth about Pius XII. Not only does he refute the accusations against the Pope, but for the first time documents how the slanders against him had their roots in a Soviet Communist campaign to discredit him and by extension, the Church.

Let those who doubt but read Rychlak, follow his exquisitely organized courtroom-like arguments. What Professor Rychlak brings to the forum are facts, not rhetoric, dates, not conjecture, evidence, not slander.... The world owes Ronald Rychlak a debt for bringing the truth to light. ---Rabbi Eric A. Silver

And, again, while Christie and I agree on few things as Catholics, we are both of the school which rejects Infallibility. But this is actually a case where the Pope did quite well.
 
:rofl2:
That was a video of a fiery social critic, taken shortly before he died from cancer. He wasn't trying to get elected.

I'm talking about Hitler, I don't know what you're talking about.

But please -Falwell and Hitler were soulmates ........ :rofl2:

The country preacher who couldn't stop putting his foot in his big mouth every time he opened it wasn't a Hitler clone.

His outfit got Reagan elected more than any other voting bloc but Hitler?


:rofl2: Stop it man, you're killing me.
