"Moffett seeks a common denominator of some classic conservative causes, asking why those who extol militarism, ethnocentrism, and corporal and capital punishment are the same ones who crusade for phonics and literal interpretation of the Bible while scourging communism, homosexuality, and women's rights."-TheEducation Digest, "Moffett seeks a common denominator of some classic conservative causes, asking why those who extol militarism, ethnocentrism, and corporal and capital punishment are the same ones who crusade for phonics and literal interpretation of the Bible while scourging communism, homosexuality, and women's rights."- The Education Digest, "Moffett himself is partisan but never shrill. He is emphatic, but refreshing in that he proudly says he does not share the current liberal fashion of condescending to speak well of fundamentalists even when they need rejoinder and countering. He hears, testifies to whatever is plausible in the New Right vision, and then argues with it--usually to telling effect. If for nothing else, read the book for the interview transcripts."-- The Christian Century, "Moffett himself is partisan but never shrill.
