6B RELIGION/^ CI^STlone $o«t Thursday, May 4, 2006 Macedonia pastor indicted Continued from page 5B A message seeking com ment that was left at the offices of Macedonia Baptist on Friday afternoon was not returned. According to the church’s Web site, Walker came to the church in 1992 and in the late 1990s led a campaign to build a new church sanctuary That structure was opened in 2004. The loan fraud charges alleged by the government are related to statements Walker made to banks in relation to applications for a credit card, a residential loan and a home equity line of credit. The false statements to fed eral agents charge stems from things Walker said dur ing an interview with the IRS on Dec. 15, 2004, according to the indictment. Maximum penalties associ ated with the charges WaLker Rood of new Christian books hit market Continued from page 5B claim that with Bush-era Republicans, “for the first time, the United States has a political party that repre sents—some say over-repre sents—true-believing fre quent churcl^oers.” Phillips did find some actu al theocrats, known as “reconstructionists.” But despite his insinuations, they have neghgible impact on America’s church or state. He loathes conservatives who address gay marriage, school prayer, sex education, “intelligent design” or the war on terror. But he never explains ‘why they are un- American theocrats but not religious and secular types who preach the opposite val ues. Carter has the same sort of problem. He thinks “separa tion of church and state” for bids corporate church activism, limiting agitation to individuals. Is it illegitimate for churches to lobby about black and immigrant rights, federal spending for the poor, envimnmental protection or other liberal causes? If not. Carter never explains the dif ference. Kazin, a self-described “sec ular liberal,” calls Bryan “a great Christian liberal.” 'Ibday’s Democrats and liber als, Kazin obs^ves, suppose they can safely “ignore moral issues grounded in religious conviction,” yet “most Ameri- Stellar Awards CD Continued from page 5B Shirley Caesar is, well Shirley Caesar, on “The Debt I Owe.” For those who have • wondered what happens bdiind the scenes at the SteUars, a DVD is included of such.

Tbday Bryan is remem bered mostly for one mistake; opposing the teaching of evo lution at the 1925 Scopes Trial. Kazin says that reli giously, Bryan was “not a fun damentalist as we now understand that term.” Bryan opposed Darwinism not only as an attack upon the Bible but upon the down trodden, because "survival of the fittest” was being applied to society Other Bryan errors, in ret rospect, were alcohol prohibi tion and the support for Jim Crow policies on race that he shared with all major Democ rats of that era. Except for race, tiie Democrats ceased being America’s more conser vative party due to Bryan’s impact. Consider his then-radical Income taxes on corpora tions and wealthy individu als, government regulation of banks and the stock market,- antitrust laws, federally insured bank deposits, pro tection for labor union mem bers and strikers, federal aid to education and highway construction, workmen’s com pensation, a minimum wage, government farm subsidies and food inspection, publicly funded campaigns, women’s ri^t to vote and direct elec tion of U.S. senators.
