Sex, Politics and Jesus
Behold the essay about Sex, politics and Jesus.Conservatism tends to be viewed as heavily influenced by Christianity. Conservatives often fight for Christian morals to be embedded in society, towards things such as abortion and pornography. During the "long 60's" they also fought against the evils of communism. The ideal that is emphasized against communism is that it threatens capitalism, but the Christian Bible sympathizes with the poor and lower class; it emphasizes that monetary gain is not the way to reach heaven. Contrary to this Christian belief, the conservative party's main ambition is increased capitalism. Every conservative belief at this time infers to the eradication of communism and the prevention of the leftists from becoming powerful, who hinder capitalism. The conservatives took action against things that were considered immoral by Christians, to appeal to Christians who did not necessarily support the conservative's capitalist ideals of decentralized government or elimination of welfare. This use of religion generated more conservative party members which eventually led to the growth and success of the Republican Party.The conservatives targeted anything involved with sexual liberation.

The conservative party therefore protested against anti-religious controversy to gain the attention of Christian religious members, which resulted in many of them pledging their loyalty to the Republican Party, which even went against non-Christian ideals, such as hindering the lives of the poor and spreading capitalism. The idea of sex education was "developed with the support of local clergy and community organizations" (229), but was rejected by the conservative community. As a result, the conservative party gained strong support, even support from Democrats, who were liberal on issues regarding communism. This case shows how public opinion is able to control the constitution, and what will prevent the constitution from being manipulated in the future? This could potentially be used to combat communism, and is already a direct attack on the left wing. With an increase of this promiscuous sex, there would also have to be new ways of educating the youth. Religion attacks the left wing again with its response to birth control and sex education. It can be concluded that Christianity was used as a way to gain support of Christian Democrats to the conservative party. Pornography was described by conservatives as responsible for the "moral decay" of society (McGirr, 226). A quote from the Bible, by the founder of Christianity, Jesus Christ, shows the religion to favor the lower class (who would probably not be apart of the middle-class or higher conservative party): "it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God" (Matthew 19:23). The fight against sex education and birth control also served as a way to draw in democrats to the Republican Party; "Mrs. This is the ideal where Christianity is not a factor, because Christian scripture tends to favor a social structured government.
