Lori:
If you are truly committed to multiculturalism, watch out for outdated
phrases like "judeo-christian" - it subsumes Judaism, which often espouses
quite different values from Christianity, within a supposed joint moral
focus that never really existed. And then just compare the percentage of
Jews in the ACLU, for example, with their percentage in the Moral Majority,
and I think you'll see it's unfair and inaccurate to include "judeo" along
with the phrase "right-wing conservative".
