The origin of the Religious Right is typically attributed to the political move among white evangelicals to counter Roe v. Wade. Yet many now find evidence that the defense of life was a mere ruse to cover their actual intention: to uphold white supremacy. Beyond these foundations, the policies that have been advanced and supported by the Religious Right continue to have a negative impact on racialized persons in the United States, even if they are often couched in a values language that masks the true intent and affect. Recent studies have also shown that not only are policies harmful, even deadly, to racialized persons, the white evangelicals who support the Religious Right's policies are also being victimized. Join Randall Balmer (Dartmouth College), Anthea Butler (University of Pennsylvania), and Adrienne Jones (Morehouse College) in a conversation moderated by Susannah Heschel (Dartmouth College) exploring this history, the trajectory, and the consequences of white supremacy in the Religious Right.

The fact that evangelicals voted for Trump in 2016 was the single greatest blow to my faith.

@@hanssvineklev648 You didn't just support Trump, but all the flip-floppers like Ted Cruz and others like him. Watch the 2015 debates and see how Cruz and Trump attacked each other. The bible says a hallmark of a true believer is having a love for the brethren. If you evangelicals are really God's people, there is now way I can walk with you and certainly no way I can love you. You have no idea the harm you have caused me. So either God has low standards for what He calls "his people", or you evangelicals are not really "his people" at all.

This may seem simplistic, but I see what's happening with evangelicals as the death throughs of a belief system being completely debunked by modern scientific discoveries.

Deuteronomy 28:68! I will send you back to Egypt in ships again where you will be sold to Your Enemies as Bondmen and Bondwomen. God told the Children of Israel this. Christianity & those they call Jews are liars. Was anybody sent into Slavery by ships? Our 400 years ended in 2019! You heard of 400 year prophecy right? God is real, religion is false, Christianity gave the world that false image of Christ.

Why do people feel the need to identify as an Evangelical if they're not in agreement with them? There is nothing in the scripture that tells us we have to identify with this group or denomination. The scripture tells us to identify with Christ. I don't even call myself a Christian any longer, I'm a follower of Jesus Christ. I don't want to be identified with a bunch of racist hypocrites.

Thank you for this presentation. I appreciated hearing thoughtful viewpoints that I have not heard or considered previously. I can't say that I enjoyed listening to this discussion. It did reinforce my opinions, which are equally as pessimistic. I would love to hear the viewpoints of equally thoughtful people of the Religious Right, but I don't believe that type of person exists. Am I wrong?

Yes, you are wrong. Follow Ed Stetzer, Russell Moore, Os Guiness ( all evangelicals) Look up A.J.Gordon who founded Gordon College and Gordon Divinity School as an alternative to Amdover-Newtown and other liberal main line Seminaries . GCTS is moving back into Boston, Massachusetts to better serve inner city people. It is not racism but compassion that moves them back into the inner city.

trump is their lord and their god who wants the praise and worship of his minions. these people have been baptized with the same anointing or Chaos, Lying, Hatred and Darkness as their leader, trump. wherever he goes, he spreads Chaos and he infects others with his anointing from the abyss. in the beginning Darkness was upon the earth but God said, Let There Be Light (Light Be)! And it was so. In the Name of King Jesus, the One with All Authority, I speak, I proclaim, and it Must be so: In the Name of Jesus, I Bind the Spirit of Chaos over this Nation. You Have No Authority and I declare that you are Powerless and Command that you and your minions Leave Now! I command you to be Quiet Now! Out in the Name of Jesus! Out Now! I speak Peace. Peace Now, in Jesus Name! I command Everything that has been affected by the Spirit of Chaos to be made straight and to be Healed!

Why did so many vote for Trump? The answer is two fold. The idea that Hillary Clinton could lead this country when her views are so extreme left wing. The other is nominations to the Supreme court. Like most conservative people there was NO goid choice. The worst two evils. There must be a third party soon that will work to achieve what you are discussing. The idea that we can truly love one another must be from the leadership. Thats not Trump or Biden.

There is only one GOD and he created mankind with different colors of skin; but all brothers. GOD did not create white "evangelicals" or white "supremacists". All of those who pay tribute to false apostles are equally responsible for their sins, and will be judged accordingly when their time comes.If you are one of them ,there is still time to mend your wrong doing

whole world and Allah (God) watching your loyalty with your beliefs. 👉🚥🚦Show your confidence in your religion, science or reason. I suggest you with respect that you follow the Holy Quran, if you don't agree with me? then after death liar will take other's and his whole nation's sins, do you agree? Be brave now. By the all holy books and medical science dead mankind is non communicable and if you call dead personalities or prophets along with Allah (God) and seek help from dead mankind then you will Never go to the heaven, if you don't agree with me then after death liar will take other's and his whole nation's sins, do you agree? Be brave now? (Don't relate pseudo Muslims with Holy Quran.)
