America's religious right: God's own country

In the words of Bertrand Russell:

"I am sometimes shocked by the blasphemies of those who think themselves pious."

They hate gays and abortion, and love George W Bush. They worship in churches the size of shopping malls, and dominate the nation's - and the world's - political agenda. But is the Christian backlash finally starting against America's religious right?
