Ex-Sen. (and current priest) John Danforth, speaking at the Bill Clinton School of Public Service, denounces the evangelical right:

"I think that the Republican Party fairly recently has been taken over by the Christian conservatives, by the Christian right," he said in an interview. "I don't think that this is a permanent condition, but I think this has happened, and that it's divisive for the country."

He also said the evangelical Christian influence would be bad for the party in the long run.
