"TAKING BACK THE COUNTRY FOR CHRIST & THE CHURCH:

IN THE WORDS OF THE RELIGIOUS RIGHT

RANDALL TERRY (Founder of Operation Rescue and a close friend of the Catholic Archbishops of New York and Philadelphia)

"I want you to just let a wave of intolerance wash over you. I want you to let a wave of hatred wash over you. Yes, hate is good ... Our goal is a Christian nation. We have a biblical duty, we are called by God to conquer this country. We don't want equal time. We don't want pluralism. [The News-Sentinel (Fort Wayne, Indiana), August 16, 1993]
PAUL WEYRICH (Editor of the Conservative Digest and one of the founding gurus of the New Right)

"We are talking about Christianizing America. We are talking about simply spreading the Gospel in a political context." (Free Congress Foundation. August, 1980)
LOU SHELDON (Founder and president of the Traditional Values Coalition)

"We were here first. You don't take our shared common values and say they are biased and bigoted ... We are the keepers of what is right and what is wrong." (San Francisco Chronicle, September 13, 1993)
RALPH REED (Executive director of the Christian Coalition)

"What Christians have got to do is to take back this country, one precinct at a time, one neighborhood at a time and one state at a time ... I honestly believe that in my lifetime we will see a country once again governed by Christians ... and Christian values." (Religious News Service, May 15, 1990)
JERRY FALWELL (Senior Pastor of Thomas Rhodes Baptist Church)

"Modern U.S. Supreme Courts have raped the Constitution and raped the Christian faith and raped the churches by misinterpreting what the founders had in mind in the First Amendment of the Constitution ... We must fight against those radical minorities who are trying to remove God from our textbooks, Christ from our nation. We must take back what is rightfully ours." (Moral Majority Sermon, March 1993)
"I hope to see the day when, as in the early days of our country, we won't have any public schools. The churches will have taken them over again and Christians will be running them. What a happy day that will be." (America Can Be Saved, 1979)

PAT ROBERTSON (Founder of Regent University, CBN, Christian Coalition and the American Center for Law and Justice)

"If Christian people work together, they can succeed during this decade in winning back control of the institutions that have been taken from them over the past 70 years. Expect confrontations that will be not only unpleasant but at times physically bloody ... This decade will not be for the faint of heart, but the resolute. Institutions will be plunged into wrenching change. We will be living through one of the most tumultuous periods of human history. When it is over, I am convinced God's people will emerge victorious. But no victory ever comes without a battle." ("Pat Robertson's Perspectives," Oct/Nov 1992)
"They (the secular-humanists) have kept us in submission because they have talked about separation of church and state. There is no such thing in the Constitution. It's a lie of the left, and we're not going to take it anymore." (November 1993 address to the American Center for Law and Justice)

"Just like what Nazi Germany did to the Jews, so liberal America is now doing to the evangelical Christians. It's no different. It is the same thing. It is happening all over again. It is the Democratic Congress, the liberal-biased media and the homosexuals who want to destroy all Christians. Wholesale abuse and discrimination and the worst bigotry directed toward any group in America today." (Fort Worth Star Telegram, September 14, 1993)

BILLY McCORMACK (Director of the Christian Coalition)

"I'd like for you to take - but your paper might not allow you to do it - and that is to take the Jewish element in the ACLU which is trying to drive Christianity out of the public place, and I'd like to see you do the something objective there. Because the ACLU is made up of a tremendous amount of Jewish attorneys." (Taped interview with the Los Angeles Times, November 14, 1990)
ROBERT SIMONDS (Founder and president of Citizens for Excellence in Education)

"America is now groaning! Atheistic secular humanist's should be removed from office and Christians should be elected. We can all then rejoice continually as our children and our nation will be more safe. Government and true Christianity are inseparable." (How to Elect Christians to Public Office, 1985)
W.A. CRISWELL (Senior Pastor of Dallas's First Baptist Church)

"There is no such thing as separation of church and state. It is merely a figment of the imagination of infidels." [Taped interview at the Republican National Convention (9/6/84)]
BEVERLY LaHAYE (Founder and president of Concerned Women of America)

"Today instead of protecting our right to freely exercise our religious faith in public places, publicly honoring our God and Creator as our forefathers did, we are forbidden to speak, to pray aloud, to read the Bible, to even teach Judeo-Christian values in our public schools and other public places because of an imaginary 'wall of separation' conjured by non-believers." (Fundraising letter, 1988)

Stand up and be counted.
