    The Editorial brings out the need for a revolution. Yes the said Christian revolution is possible if more and more dedicated christians occupy positions. There is no use of namesake christians in the Judiciary or in the administration. They are opportunists who close their eyes and yeild to meaningless secularism

    I am sorry. I do not want the teachings of Jesus to be dragged through the political sausage machine. "Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's and to God the things that are God's"

    I agree with you, Deacon. I used to listen to Sean Hannity - but there was just so much I could hear! While I agree with many points the conservative talk hosts make - and they are the only ones on the radio waves making them, I became more and more concerned with some hosts "no place for the poor" attitude. Although most are anti-abortion, not all hold consistent Christian views.
    Please write more - get a balanced view between the two extremes of left and right.

    I do agree however, it is my opinion that the conservative movement is much closer to a Christian movement than the progressive movement. When almost the entire Democratic caucus votes against the Stupak Amendment that should be a sign that they are far from the answer.

    What, exactly, is a progressive? And where did that term come from? Glenn Beck? Does progressive = liberal, or did I miss something? Also, the pro-life movement has been hijacked by the right wing in this country. We've had pro-life presidents, pro-life legislators, and even many Catholics on the Supreme Court. Abortion, still legal. So what's the difference if a pro-choice candidate gets elected? None. Abortion, still legal.

    *Sigh*... enter the partisan conservatives. Partisan liberals and partisan conservatives have more in common than they think.

    We need a revolution executed by properly ordered moral Christians.

    It was John Adams who rightly said "Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people . . . wholly inadequate to the government of any other."

    Every one of the founders are being proven correct time and again.

    Deacon, Sorry to disagree with you, I usually find myself on your side. We can't be fooled into thinking the progressives or liberals have anything good to offer this country. We must stay united in the Conservative movement... please. And please... there is no room for lumping in neo-conservatives and libertarians with this conservative push. Conservatives do stand with what you would call the Christian Revolution, they are one in the same.

    Take look on what is happening in UK, where several communities of Anglicans are turning to Catholic Church in response to liberal evolution of Church of England towards. This can happen in USA as well because, Catholic Church is a good system where our lives and culture are safe.
