A new letter argues that in Europe, "It isn't gay marriage that destroys heterosexual marriage, it's socialism."
Fighting for Evangelical Votes.
From a recent issue of U.S. New & World Report:
While it comes as no surprise that white evangelicals are overwhelmingly Republican and back President Bush by a wide margin, nearly a quarter say they might vote for Democrat John Kerry.
Since "white evangelical Christians today make up roughly a fourth of the U.S. population," that quarter of a quarter is a pretty steep number.
Perhaps this slice of religiously conservative but economically
liberal evangelicals is what a lot of the political hullabaloo is
about -- Bush supporting a constitutional amendment to ban gay
marriage, and Kerry not voting against the same, and not publicly
mentioning any gay-supportive position at the convention or on the
campaign trail.
