Two recent examples of how the Christian Right responds to the growing power of the Christian Left are Townhall columnist Doug Giles' attack on liberal Christians and Gary DeMar's magazine, Biblical Worldview, attack on Jimmy Carter. From Doug Giles:
For the "Christian" to lean politically to the left means that he must blow off huge chunks of the Bible and replace the scripture with the make-believe notions of postmodernism's malleable "Christ." Only after torturing the scripture can the Christian then fit liberalism into his supposed relationship with God. [ ] From Biblical Worldview's review of Jimmy Carter's recent book:
Jimmy Carter, America's 39th President (1977-1980), unequivocally has revealed himself to be an "imposter" Christian--joining ranks with the "men of depraved minds" that the Apostle Paul warns about in 2 Timothy Chapter 3. [ ]
