Judging from the articles, that 'defense' is failing fast.
That was before they decided to jump on the Christian bandwagon.
I keep trying to pin down the events that were associated with that change. Wasn't it the SLC winter olympics that served as the catalyst?
It was before that. It started with the ‘interfaith’ channel in the late 1980’s (mormon, liberal Christian and Jewish). But didn’t really take off until the late 1990’s. IMO, the internet was the imputus. Too much info available.
Of course now it is in full swing.
