“Huckabee represents a clear invasion of the Religious right by the religious left. If the core of the religious right ever falls to religious and political populism of Democrats then the Republican party is over.”

Hence the book must start out from the position that 'Christianity is not solely a religion of personal salvation but must essentially concern itself with poliltics' and it must then go 'all out' for immediate and practical socialism and internationalism.
Despite these clear elements of deception and direction, the Canon complied..."
