Moral Majority: Christian Coalition
built 222 days ago
The Moral Majority, in fact, laid the groundwork for any and all churches to publicly fight all the political battles they choose so long as they don’t openly endorse particular candidates. Now would definitely be the time for churches to use these loopholes and do political battle against the national ID. And, indeed they should as this issue strikes at the heart of Christian beliefs. Surely church leaders’ faith in God is greater than their fear of government revoking their tax exempt corporate status.

The ideology of the Moral Majority represented a break from past fundamentalist activities. Previously, fundamentalists had criticized more liberal Christians who got invovled with politics and social actions. Now... fundamentalist became energized and passionate about using political elections and social work to change society.
Synopsis: The encyclopedia entry is small, but the list of articles about the Moral Majority-- both in its current and former incarnations-- contains many good links. The name may have changed slighly but the mission is essentially the same: to take political control of the US government and make this a Christian nation.
Robert J. Billings headed the rightwing National Christian Action Coalition before becoming executive director of the Moral Majority. (14) Billings was the legislative director of the American Conservative Union in 1988. (17)
