A Funny, Chilling, Serious, Even-Handed Look at Bush's Religion
Jeff Sharlet: This Friday, March 2, the Center for Religion and Media will present a free screening of With God on Our Side: George W. Bush and the Rise of the Religious Right (David Van Taylor and Calvin Skaggs, 1996, 100 min.) at New York University's King Juan Carlos Center, 53 Washington Square South at 3 pm, followed by a discussion with filmmaker David Van Taylor which I'll be moderating. The Financial Times calls With God On Our Side "both chilling and funny." What do those Brits know? The Chicago Tribune says: "Required viewing! Serious, in-depth and even-handed... A compelling history of the evangelical movement's agenda and growing political strength over the last 40 years."
