[lbo-talk] Red State, Blue God

[mike larkin]

""Anna Greenberg spoke of "church shopping" leading to
uniformity of opinion within a church. Whereas
previously, people attended the local church of their
denomination, now they are mobile, and pick a
church--even a Catholic parish church--that is in line
with their views.

Richard Land says that the Gay marriage has not
eclipsed abortion issue. Anna Greenberg agrees.
Younger religious people still think abortion has
salience, but not gay marriage issue. Thus, the gay
marriage issue may work for this election cycle, but
it will fade in the long term. Those who oppose it are
in danger of risking their long-term reputation for
short-term political gain."

"...Many Catholics are on the left, except for the
abortion issue. They feel they can't even breathe
their "pro-life" sympathies, however.""
