Author, historian and Emmy Award nominee the Rev. Dr. Randall Balmer, distinguished visiting professor at Emory Universitys Candler School of Theology, reveals groundbreaking research on the real impetus behind the rise of the Religious Right in this April 16, 2009 lecture, Mistaken Identity: Jimmy Carter, the Abortion Myth, and the Rise of the Religious Right.
A scholar, documentary filmmaker, and Episopal priest, Balmer is professor of American religious history at Barnard College, Columbia University and the 2009 McDonald Family Chair on the Life and Teachings of Jesus and their Impact on Culture at Candler School of Theology. An editor for Christianity Today since 1999, his commentaries on religion in America also have appeared in news publications across the country, including the New York Times, the Philadelphia Inquirer, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, and Slate. He is the author of a dozen books, including Thy Kingdom Come: How the Religious Right Distorts the Faith and Threatens America and Mine Eyes Have Seen the Glory: A Journey into the Evangelical Subculture in America, now in its fourth edition, which was made into a three-part documentary for PBS.

I just read Randall Balmer's book, A perfect Babel of Confusion: Dutch Religion & English Culture in the Middle Colonies. It is excellent and even highly relevant to today. A history simply unknown but highly polarized politically, & wild and crazy with a cross-dressing-like-Queen-Ann governor who was always trying to control the churches, and a homosexual(in behavior not "identity") evangelical leader of the Great Awakening. Somehow reading it was a great comfort that we will get thru our present travails. This talk is also well done. Thank you. It is not the whole story of evangelicals however. Many evangelicals, I would say MOST are not/were not consumed by politics and cover a spectrum of views. These are the powerful people $$$$$$$$$ & one of many power-obsessed movements. But Balmer's criticism and narrative of this time are worth weighing. Very interesting and different.

I always found it odd why evangelicals make the issue of abortion a priority. By the way they behave you would think it's on every second page in the Bible, but the reality is that the Bible does not even mention it. The few verses evangelicals cite to support their strong anti-abortion stance are not actually about abortion, you can only make it about abortion indirectly or in a very contrived way. One would think if God considered the issue as important as evangelicals make it out to be then he would have clearer messages about it. Meanwhile evangelicals ignore whole issues that are much more empathic in the Bible. So I already assumed this issue has rather political reasons and origins. I suspected it might have to do with men's desire to maintain their control over women. Contraception in general helped women to take control of their lives, be able to study, work and not be dependent on men. Churches do not necessarily like that, and I think that might be the origin of Catholic stance not only against abortion, but birth control in general. I didn't know the racism connection of this issue, so thank you for this lecture.

@kaydenpat, This is hardly a break down of history. What this rabid hater and attacker of the Religious Right talks about here is what has become his regular attempt to discredit and vilify the Religious Right. You can expect in that effort for there to be claims that racism is the prime mover of that movement. Clear factual evidence of that aren't considered necessary by critics like this preacher of Hate; it simply goes along with the definition the left has established for the Right. "They're racist and no discussion about it." Were Balmer not on the attack of the Right he would probably not be hardly noticed and likely not invited much. As I'm writing this commentary Balmer is attacking the Catholic Church for not having given Biden its unreserved endorsement. Forget its age old teachings. Dr. Balmer knows better what is moral and who is closer to what Christ taught. Everything, everybody else must be condemned and eradicated. Typical dogmatic leftist. Never mind that Biden has quite a slew of very racist comments in his past.

Dr. Balmer is a very boring speaker. If you force yourself to listen to him, you gradually realize that he is not only reporting the HISTORY of a political-religious movement, he is also criticizing it. Whenever he sees a way to attack these people (usually for inconsistency) he does so. Whenever a fact does NOT lend itself to attacking them, he merely states it and plods right along to the next thing. History is different from polemics--even really BORING polemics!
@johndemeritt3460

ctbarfield, it would be more correct to say Rev Dr Balmer is critiquing the Evangelical Christian Religious Right political movement. It's entirely fair for him to point out the inconsistencies in their positions, as it makes the history clear: that the Religious Right is a political movement swaddling itself in religious garb.

This is one of the best videos made on the history of the Religious Right. I watch it repeatedly. He's very right about how Evangelicals did not rise against abortion until the rise of Reagan toward 1980. I became very much part of Evangelicalism in the early 1970s but the only outcry I remember then about abortion came from a Catholic friend of mine who was upset about the opening of an abortion clinic in our town.

People seem to forget that Clergy Consultation Service on Abortion (Protestant ministers, Jewish rabbis, and dissident Catholic nuns and priests; of the Protestants there were several churches involved. Judson Memorial Church, United Church of Christ, American Baptist Church and the Alliance of Baptists, just to name a few.). was an organization that would help women find safe illegal abortions Pre-Roe. They were the largest referral service back then and even helped drop the prices to make them more accessible. Post-Roe, they were the FIRST to open a legal Abortion Clinic (Legal Abortions were previously only done at hospitals).

I dove deep into a mightmare of a miserable contry under control of pederasts in uniform. Somehow I manage to survive and every day since then I have ask to myself: "Why America has done that to me." Millions always have intered the country trying to escape persecution of all kind. America has never forced anybody out but did that to me! Why...?

@@rosesprog1722 You're right . Betrayal belongs to friends never comes from enemies. In the case of Brazil, the USA has a miserable historical records of betrayals. As Brazil fought in World War II with the Americans, from 1950 onwards huge investments in the country made Brazil on the path of industrialization. In 1980, Rio de Janeiro had the most expensive square meter in the world and Shanghai was very poor. Today it's the reverse. Overnight, they focused their investments on their former enemies, Communist China, making them the superpower of today. They made Brazil an agrarian country governed by an agribusiness plutocracy to serve as a reserve market for Yankee industrial products produced in the maquilas of Communist China. Rio de Janeiro is today as poor as Shanghai was before, dominated by narcotics and corrupt politicians. What hurts the most is that these schemes were premeditated by the American State itself. They didn't want an industrial power south of their borders. This also explains my case. In my last job at the World Bank I made a technical compilation that served as a model for investors to switch from the Mainframe model to the client-server model.

Poor man Truman had no idea what they were talking about so he said "Okay" Since then, military budgets have increased constantly and weapons is the only product now sold by the US so the only way to keep the US economy alive is to fight every war possible around the world and if there are no wars, to invent some, the war on terror was a masterpiece in that regard, increased budgets and no real enemies and THAT's what a permanent war economy is all about. The US now has over 7,000 nukes when it would take 5 to destroy Russia and more than 1,000 military bases all over the world, ready to intervein anywhere, at any time. I read a few years ago that the military spent more on air conditioning alone than the whole budget given to NASA for space exploration! Makes no sense at all.

The reason abortion worked with the Bible Belt was because it was a "States Rights" issue, not based on any morality. The people who tried pushing to get the Bible belt on their side first tried using school segregation as a wedge issue to win over the South in the early 70s but that failed but if they could guise the "States Rights" in a less divisive issue (at least at that time) it would be a Dog Whistle for all those people who were upset about the Civil Rights Act, while just issue about the morality of abortion for those who didn't want to go anywhere near race relation issues.

@Rhonda Renee , I would argue that the attacks on 9-11 were perpetrated by people who identified as Muslim, but were seduced by teachings taken out of context from the words of the Prophet. But if the attacks were not perpetrated by people who identified with a particularly fundamentalist sect of Islam, who did make those attacks?
