Over at the Feminary, I found out about this nonsense:
America Won’t Be Happy!16 March 2006
“The War on Christians” conference is coming to D.C., featuring a modified-A-list of conservative heavyweights organized by Vision America, including Alan Keyes, Gary Bauer, Sen. John Cornyn, Phyllis Schlafly, Sen. Sam Brownback and Rep. Tom DeLay, as well as some Jews — the latter apparently such a newsworthy addition that it warranted its own press release: “Jews Confront the War on Christians.” Other target-specific panels will include “The News Media: Megaphone For Anti-Faith Values,” “The Judiciary: Overruling God,” and “The Gay Agenda: America Won’t Be Happy.”
Its one thing to agree that we live in a post-Christian society, one where we no longer have the privledge of soccer games not being scheduled on Sunday morning or assuming that everyone will come to the Lenten program (perhaps no longer taking priority over a much needed break from a too stressful work week). Its another to perpetuate the trope that there is a War on Christians. Meanwhile, the actual war, which is exacting a real cost, is going on over there –>.

Thanks for the note – sorry I don’t have trackback (I’m a little blog-impaired when it comes to technical stuff).
