Christian Support for Roy Moore “Looks Like Hypocrisy to the Outside World”
The Atlantic’s Emma Green interviews the John C. Danforth Center’s own Marie Griffith on her new book Moral Combat, which illustrates the sexual politics of the Christian world. Griffith says of Christian political concern over the last century, “The motivating concerns are sex, birth control, obscenity and censorship laws, sex education in public schools, and even abortion, which has a lot to do with sex and sexual morality.” She adds, “None of the issues I write about are resolved. Even issues we once thought were settled, such as birth-control access, are back in the public conversation.”
