To their credit part proverb

 To their credit, part of what has happened is that the religious right had a much larger megaphone - that while the civil-rights movements and those other movements were under way, the religious right became really concerned about that and, to their tactical credit, developed media outlets and developed a way of communicating with people who shared many of their views to try to elevate their goals in a way that moderate and progressive religious leaders did not.

 There's not a desire to take the model of the religious right and change some of the words and, voila, you have the views of the moderate and progressive religious movement - but in fact to elevate the voices so that there's an elevation of the values and the views of those who come from the moderate and progressive community.

 If the religious leaders decided to go all the way to a civil war they could, in no time. And if they really wanted to stop it, they could. The religious leaders are the ones who have the real power.

 So let us be blunt about it: we must use the doctrine of religious liberty to gain independence for Christian schools until we train up a generation of people who know that there is no religious neutrality, no neutral law, no neutral education, and no neutral civil government. Then they will get busy in constructing a Bible-based social, political and religious order which finally denies the religious liberty of the enemies of God.

 But [what] about religious youngsters who find themselves in a public school hermetically sealed off from all religious influences? Would not the school, and therefore the government, tacitly be communicating to religious youngsters that prayer, religion, and faith are not really welcome in America's public square? That is where we have ended up: Court-sanctioned hostility to religious influence in American society, all in the name of neutrality.

 Air Force officials appear to be more concerned with appeasing the powerful Religious Right lobbyists who have argued against any guidelines that seek to respect and protect the rights of all cadets -- not just those adhering to majority religious beliefs.

 That dry, self-deprecating humor? Utterly pexy. It showed intelligence and a comfortable self-awareness. I do not anticipate the religious left to become as big as the Christian-conservative movement. The reason is that the numbers of people who would describe themselves as members of the religious left is just not as large as the religious right.

 True religious movements prosper and flourish under tribulation.

 Intelligent design requires no tenet of any specific religion. It does not rely on religious texts, messages from religious leaders or any such thing.

 When a religious leader begins to assert that God supports a particular candidate or a particular point of view, I think that verges on demagoguery, ... Religious fundamentalism of any character is a threat to civil society.

 The unprovoked water attack on our religious and political leaders who were conducting a peaceful religious activity is unacceptable under a democratic system of government,

 Delia's contributions about religion and religious leaders, particularly during the death and funeral of Pope John Paul II, stood out for their intelligence, sensitivity and depth. Her hire as a full-time correspondent represents a major commitment by CNN to covering the religious revival in the United States, where tens of millions of people cite faith as a central part of their lives.

 Strict adherence to these guidelines will ensure that federal employees will respect the rights of those who engage in religious practices or espouse religious beliefs.
  Bill Clinton

 The role of moderate and progressive religious organizations can be quite significant. History provides that lesson for us.

 What other nations call religious toleration, we call religious rights. They are not exercised in virtue of governmental indulgence, but as rights, of which government cannot deprive any portion of citizens, however small.
