Just to clear the air...

I can see how you might construe "religious right" to mean "Christian religious right". It was not my intention to make that connection with my poor choice of language. I would include in "wacko religious right" all those who practice an extremely conservative form of religion. As I suggested above words such as "fundamentalist", "orthodoxy", "fringe", "extreme" would have better served. I will attempt to be more careful in my use of language in the future.

I apologize for my carelessness...

I still stand by my statement that a device that would have been surgically inserted into a vagina to prevent rape (or any sexual interference) would be a valuable object to parents who have extreme religious beliefs about the sanctity of their daughters (I believe I have sufficently detailed where I was coming from in this regard).
