next morning: the moderate vs. the fundamentalists
i would think that the rise into mass politics of the christian right would pose a real problem for moderates because the right uses much the same language as the moderates to stake out positions.
at the very least, moderates would have to emphasize the diversity of positions within christianity--in others words, christianity is not a single thing, despite the commonalities of belief in theological terms---and the right does not get to define it.
