The Moral Majority was. Bauer/Reed/Falwell; Coral Ridge Ministries. The FRC often spouts off anti-Enlightenment propaganda. Anything that revises history to suggest that the separation of church and state was never the true intention of the constitution, or that individuals in particular states weren't protected from religious prejudices in government. Falwell and Robertson were quoted on 9/11 as saying we were being punished by God, which really got my goat. These guys regularly make bizarre claims about Israel and the end times, and what we have to do next as a nation because of prophecy and such. If I lived in Israel, I'd be worried about these guys recommending something rash because of some esoteric and possibly unrelated Bible text in Revelations.
Before you get your shorts in a knot, I'm against same sex unions of any kind, I'm for prayer in school, I'm for displays of the 10 commandments, and I have no problems with banning public displays of affection to protect children.
I think morals, marriage, family, fetuses, children, and invalids can all be protected without claiming that we're a Christian nation, and I think most of the time people doing this are taking an intellectual shortcut or actively seeking political power that doesn't belong to them. I also think that 99% of our problems with families and fetuses are caused by our own lack of convictions and our own Republican lack of consideration to the causes rather than just the symptoms of these problems.
No such thing as an official group, this is just a term that is convenient for the MSM to label Christians in a way to position the Secular Minority as 'for the people' and relevant.
Bauer/Reed/Falwell
These men have never made a statement against our current form of government or proposed a new government in any way, shape or form. In fact, Ralph Reed is the consumate political insider.

Find it! Find it! Find it in The Constitution. Where does it say that (nowhere) or even imply it? Only that there will not be a state sponsored religion, of which by default, I and virtually all agree.
The rest of your answer had little or nothing to do with the various questions I posed to you.
It seems you are a victim of popular culture via the MSM, who has been on a crusade to demonize Christians, particularly Evangelicals, for the last 40 years. They have made these categories and statements without being challenged...thus, many people have assumed them to be correct. Well, now the MSM is being challenged everyday and their intentions and tactics are being exposed.
I suggest you look past the cliches, don't use Falwell/Robertson as your total measurement of Christians (another trick of the MSM, don't you realize that!) and don't be fearful of Christians trying to take over governments.
We're just trying to prepare hearts to be opened up to Jesus.
Sigh...I already demonstrated that this is flat out wrong and yet you continue to insist it is true. You even apologized for your mistake.
Isolation from participation in Gov't based on religion was the norm. The only argument was "WHICH" Christian denomination was the norm.
