Shootall;
Christian right..not a nebulous term, and not difficult at all to define;
Christian Right..Those who believe that the Bible, including every word in it, is TRUE and endeavor to live by it's precepts. Politically, the Christian right
is not monolithic..but close..
The Christian right doesn't necessarily stick to one "party label", as some groups do, but rather votes generally upon principles dear to themselves
..just as most people do !
Some liberal folks consider abortion, gun control, gay marriage, flag burning, indecent lifestyles, coarsening of society, government controlled education, a weak military,
PETA, the UN, "multiculturalism", anti-God stances, and a distaste for patriotism/nationalism, just to name a few..as admirable positions, and vote in favor of them.
the Christian right would vote the opposite on virtually every count..regardless of party. The situation being that such principles generally follow party lines, seems to
govern the vote of either side.
Perhaps a better explanation would be... what is the Christian non-right ? Obviously, those who call themselves Christian..but not of the Right variety would be those
who do not take the Bible literally and agree with the liberal folks in many of their positions. Obviously, many of those liberal positions are unsound to a real Biblicist !
NW hunter;
Pat Robertson has (IMO) done some squirrely things in the near past , and should perhaps retire..and I would not agree with his choice..but among the choices of all the presidential candidates Pat has come in just above center. Every one of the Democrats would endorse the negative statements you outlined about Rudy..and add more negatives, like higher taxes,
govt. controlled medicine, more welfare, illegals voting , illegals driving licenses, plus backing the anti-God crowd...To say nothing of the Supreme court judges they would appoint !!
