A Must Watch: "The Jesus Factor" Get A Small Look Below...

6:39 PM

"We need common sense judges who understand that our rights were derived from God" -- George W. Bush. For all of you who can watch American television, I proudly, and fervently, ask you to watch an important FRONTLINE documentary film, "The Jesus Factor," on PBS, Thursday, April, 29, 9 PM (Eastern Standard Time). I say "proudly" because my wife's son, Marin Sander-Holzman, a promising young film maker, served as assistant editor on this project--many, many months in the making--that examines the extraordinary, and really quite frightening, influence that the far-right Christian fundamentalist movement has on the man who is the president of the United States of America, the most ethnically, culturally, religiously diverse nation on Earth.

"The Jesus Factor" does this more thoroughly than any mainstream television program has yet done. Below is the Title and Credits page, which in one glance should scare the bejesus out of you if you believe it is imperative that the separation of church and state remain one of the primary pillars of our beloved republic, as did the Founding Fathers, who enshrined its importance by making it the first words of the first clause of the first sentence that is the First Amendment of the Bill of Rights.
