| Sumario: | As religion and politics intersect even more acutely in today's American political scene, the authors provide a much-needed and timely revision - exploring the Moral Majority, Christian Coalition, the religious right, and the power of each as a greater political force. Are groups, such as the Moral Majority, the Christian Coalition, and the religious right the greatest threat to liberty since Hitler or the last defenders of religious freedom and family values in America? In this revised and updated edition of "Onward Christian Soldiers", Clyde Wilcox tells us who they are, what their history has been in twentieth-century American politics, and how they might organize themselves for future political effectiveness. Clyde Wilcox tackles the sticky political dilemma of the proper role of religious groups in American politics and government while showing how the contemporary religious right does - and does not - fit into that context.
