Mark Noll on Race, Religion and American Political History
From a recent CT interview with Mark Noll:
There’s irony and tragedy there, too, because small government is a really good principle, but one of the main reasons we don’t have small government anymore is because Christian people sat on their hands as the racist terror continued. If we complain about big government today, we have to repent of what happened when small government prevailed on these matters up to the 1950s.
