The secular and religious Left find it convenient to demonize politically conservative Christians.

Extremist groups like People for the American Way attack Christians who run for public office as a threat to the 'separation of church and state,' though they never specify why conservatives are any more of a threat than churchmen and church women on the Left who have led religiously inspired causes for decades.

While contemporary non-Evangelicals have virtually reduced faith to 'courageous ignorance,' Evangelicals have hardly been faithful in defending God's objective communication of truth.

One thing evangelicals want is a reprieve from intolerance against their beliefs, values, and practices.

The religious opponents of Christian conservatives are presented as moderates.
