Tracing the emergence of their antigay agenda, Herman explores how and why these groups made antigay activity a top priority, and how it relates to their political history. "A penetrating analysis of the Christian Right's antigay agenda and of how that agenda is derived from the Christian Right's peculiar vision of American history and the Christian faith."-Rev. Peter J. Gomes, Boston Book Review "Public intellectualism at its best. . . . A comprehensive summary of the conservative Protestant worldview."-Michael Joseph Gross, Boston Phoenix Literary Section "Presents considerable information not previously part of the nation's political discourse. . . . [Herman] dissects the Christian Right's antigay stance dispassionately giving, as it were, the devil his due. For anyone on either side of this passionate and important conflict, that is an impressive accomplishment."-Hastings Wyman, Jr., Washington Post Book World 606 $aConservatism$xReligious aspects$xChristianity 606 $aFundamentalism$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aHomosexuality$xReligious aspects$xChristianity 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aConservatism$xReligious aspects$xChristianity. 615 0$aFundamentalism$xHistory 615 0$aHomosexuality$xReligious aspects$xChristianity. 676 $a261.8/35766/0973 700 $aHerman$b Didi$0901424 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910455324603321 996 $aThe antigay agenda$92014834 997 $aUNINA
