Big Quote by Anthea Butler

“Not every conservative Christian is a dominionist, but to say a movement doesn't exist, as some pundits and journalists have, without even being able to say what it is in an op-ed is just irresponsible... The big story is that the religious right isn't dead.” quote by Anthea Butler — Download Open image
