| By using "modernity," it sounds like you are painting the religious right and the right in general, as simply rejecting the inevitable, and proper, advance of science, society, culture, knowledge, etc. I don't see the right as anti-modernism, except maybe the Amish. Many are up for the fight for religious reasons, and are otherwise neither political nor activists, they just want to be left alone to take the kids to school, worship, and go on vacation. They get riled up about the changes they perceive in our religious heritage and freedoms. I guess they could go about their worship without any public comment on its processes or implications. |
