If the influence and pandering to fundamentalism bothers you as regards the right, then it would be fair-minded of you to be equally distressed at the relationship of Black churches to the Democratic Party and vice versa.

Art, usually you are spot on and reply to the question. I don't think the poster said anyhting about the Right or the Left.
The erosion of common sense and ignorance of science are coming from both sides. True, in the example of the Grand Canyon book and plaques, the party in power (the GOP) was guilty. But this is not an issue of Right vs. Left. It is an issue of dangerous fundamentalism vs. the rest of us.
