When The Religious Right Were Left, But Right....

          The religious right wasn't / isn't always wrong, sometimes they were / are right, but this usually occurs when they are left, got that??? Sounds like right out of the Abbott and Costello, who's on first skit.

Anyway .....
On Tuesday September 11 at 10 pm PBS TV, will air the story of The Camden 28, 28 anti (Vietnam) war activists who were arrested in 1971 for conspiring to break into a draft facility in Camden, New Jersey and destroy records.
Arrested on site in a clearly planned sting, the protesters included many members of the "Catholic Left," four Catholic priests, a Lutheran minister, and 23 others.
The Camden 28 was distinct from other famous anti-war activist groups. For starters, all of those arrested were practicing Christians who believed that their faith compelled them to oppose the war. With the exception of a Lutheran minister, they were all Catholics, and part of what was then known as the "Catholic left."
