Dr. Richard Land was featured on NPR’s Morning Edition Thursday February 28, 2008.
Excerpt:
“It seems to me that when you say to someone, ‘Well, you’re too narrowly focused on abortion and same-sex marriage.’ That’s like telling [the Rev. Martin Luther] King he was too narrowly focused on racial reconciliation and racial justice,” Land says.
“If you have a pro-life candidate running for the Republicans … and he’s running against someone who is pro-choice and who is running on a party platform that has never met an abortion they couldn’t at least live with — if they didn’t like — you’re not going to see a lot of movement among evangelicals when it comes to presidential elections,” Land says.
NOTE: Producer’s Desk finds the heading of NPR’s Web entry amusing: “Conversations with Conservatives.” Does NPR also have entries under the heading “Conversations with Liberals?” Just curious. At least they are “conversing with” conservatives.
