In the first book devoted exclusively to Seculars, Susan B. Hansen argues that they are not only increasing in number and political involvement, but have devised strategies and alliances to counter the organization advantages of the Religious Right and its roots in church-based groups and the Republican party. 606 $aReligious right$zUnited States 606 $aChristianity and politics$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$xChurch history$y21st century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aReligious right 615 0$aChristianity and politics 676 $a322/.10973 700 $aHansen$b Susan B$0873294 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456704203321 996 $aReligion and reaction$91949531 997 $aUNINA
