The Christian Right is Aiming to Destroy All Things Public

[Sjay]

The Right has pushed for the state to hand over its public duties to
private companies, including military operations, prisons, health
care, public transport, and all the rest.

The following is an excerpt from Frank Schaeffer's new book, Sex, Mom,
and God: How the Bible's Strange Take on Sex Led to Crazy Politics --
and How I Learned to Love Women (and Jesus) Anyway (Da Capo Press,
2011).

Raised in Switzerland in l'Abri, a utopian community and spiritual
school his evangelical parents founded, Schaeffer was restless and
aware even at a young age that "my life was being defined by my
parent's choices." Still, he took to "the family business" well,
following his dad as he became one of the "best-known evangelical
leaders in the U.S." on whirlwind speaking tours. While rubbing
shoulders with Pat Robertson, James Dobson and Jerry Falwell,
Schaeffer witnessed the birth of the Christian anti-abortion movement,
and became an evangelical writer, speaker and star in his own right.
