Σύνοψη: | In This Earthly Frame: The Making of American Secularism, David Sehat tells a story—a pop cultural history—of the dispute in American history between those who want religion to be a private matter and those who want religion, especially Christianity, to set the public tone for the country.In Sehat’s telling, this struggle was present at the beginning of the American Republic. By 1973, with the decision in Roe v. Wade and the arrival of the Death of God, a secular order of religion as private had been established, especially in American constitutional law, but this order breaks down over time. Today, the "Christian Right" successfully invokes the secular rhetoric of privacy to gain exemptions from anti-discrimination laws, which effectively reinforces conservative Christian domination of American culture. |
