The New Christian Right

• • Protestant fundamentalist
  • Seek to take the USA back to God - divorce, homosexuality and abortion illegal
  • Believes in the nuclear family
• Unsuccessful because:

  • Moral majority = 15%
  • Found it hard to work with other issues over the same issues
  • Strong opposition
  • Comparison to American Civil Rights - to be successful beliefs have to be in line with the majority of society
