BOB ABERNETHY<\/strong>, host: We have a profile today of one of the most prominent leaders of the evangelical Christian right. He is Richard Land, president of the Southern Baptist Convention\u2019s Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission. Land plans to retire next October after 25 years as a leader of the culture wars.<\/p>\n

Many observers have seen in recent polls and in last month\u2019s election returns evidence of a decline in the influence of evangelical conservatives, a setback for the causes Land has led. But he concedes no such thing.<\/p>\n

RICHARD LAND<\/strong> (President, Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission): I think it\u2019s not a fair reading. For instance, on the pro-life issue a majority of Americans now say that they are pro-life.<\/p>\n

ABERNETHY<\/strong>: I thought that legal abortion in almost all cases is favored.<\/p>\n

LAND<\/strong>: The question about whether it should be legal in most cases is a different question, and the percentage who would make it illegal in most cases is actually going up. And when you begin to peel the onion, you discover that the reason that a majority now say that it is pro-life is that for the last 39 years pro-life people have been having their babies, and pro-choice people have not been having their babies with near as much frequency, and so there\u2019s a huge shift. The younger you are, the more likely you are to be pro-life.<\/p>\n

\"post01-richard-land\"ABERNETHY<\/strong>: But what about the votes in support of gay marriage, which Land opposes vigorously? Was that a setback for him?<\/p>\n

LAND<\/strong>: These four state elections where the same-sex marriage folks won are four of the most liberal states in the country. They won with a high of 52 percent of the vote, having outspent their opposition 9-to-1. We still have won 33 elections, they\u2019ve won four now, and I think the country is still deeply divided on the issue of same-sex marriage.<\/p>\n

ABERNETHY<\/strong>: I asked Land whether he was concerned about poll data such as we\u2019ve reported on this program that show almost 20 percent of the country say they have no religious affiliation at all<\/a>.<\/p>\n

LAND<\/strong>: That implies they don\u2019t have any religion, and most of them do. What you\u2019ve got is a disaffection with organized faith, and I can understand reasons for that. I\u2019ve had reasons for being tempted to be disillusioned with organized faith myself.<\/p>\n

ABERNETHY<\/strong>: Land has called the culture wars \u201ca titanic struggle for the nation\u2019s soul.\u201d<\/p>\n

LAND<\/strong>: It\u2019s still a titanic struggle, and\u2026<\/p>\n

ABERNETHY<\/strong>: But who\u2019s winning?<\/p>\n

\"\"LAND<\/strong>: Oh, I don\u2019t think either side is winning. I think both sides are winning in different places. We have a gigantic rift running through our culture, and it\u2019s a rift that doesn\u2019t run between denominations and between institutions. It runs through them. It makes less difference whether you are a Catholic or a Baptist than whether you believe in traditional values and traditional morality or whether you are a post-modernist. If you had the same America that you had in 1972, when 75 percent of Americans lived in homes where they were married, Romney would have won in a landslide. But we live in 2012 America, where only 48 percent of Americans are married and living in homes. When 53 percent of our babies that are now born to women under 30 are born out of wedlock, we\u2019re in deep trouble.<\/p>\n

ABERNETHY<\/strong>: For Land, the antidote to social problems is a return to religion.<\/p>\n

LAND<\/strong>: Spiritual revival. I do not see us, the traditional values folks, winning this struggle without a spiritual revival that ripens into an awakening and culminates in a reformation. The single greatest advantage, Bob, that an American can have today, and it trumps all others, is to be born into a home with a mother and a father who stay married to each other. If you are born into such a home, it trumps religion, it trumps ethnicity, it trumps economic rank, it trumps IQ, it trumps everything, and yet over half of our children have lost that home by the time they are seven. As far as I am concerned, that is collective societal child abuse.<\/p>\n

\"\"ABERNETHY<\/strong>: Land was very close to President George W. Bush, and he publicly endorsed Mitt Romney. He is scathing about President Obama, as he indicated when I asked him whether he thinks Republicans and Democrats can find a compromise to avoid going over the \u201cfiscal cliff.\u201d<\/p>\n

LAND<\/strong>: It\u2019s there, but the president has to want it. I don\u2019t think he wants it. I don\u2019t think the Democratic leadership wants it. I think they\u2019ve come to the conclusion that it\u2019s to their political advantage to let us go over the cliff.<\/p>\n

ABERNETHY<\/strong>: You really think that the president of the United States wants to do damage to the country?<\/p>\n

LAND<\/strong>: No, I don\u2019t think he thinks it will. I think he\u2019s wrong, but I don\u2019t think he thinks it will. For all of his brilliance, this man has never mastered Economics 101.<\/p>\n

ABERNETHY<\/strong>: Before we finished, I wanted to ask Land about Christian evangelizing\u2014trying to convert people of other faiths.<\/p>\n

Do Christians have an obligation to try to evangelize Muslims?<\/p>\n

LAND<\/strong>: Absolutely. Just as they have an obligation to try to evangelize Jews and Mormons and anyone else who is outside the Christian faith. And Mormonism is at the very least another religion. It\u2019s not the Christian faith.<\/p>\n

ABERNETHY<\/strong>: What do you say to a Muslim or a Jew or anybody else who says, \u201cWell, Christianity is okay for you, that\u2019s fine, but for you to try to tell me I must convert is to disrespect my religion\u201d?<\/p>\n

LAND<\/strong>: Well, if the price of respecting your religion is to disrespect mine, the price is too high.<\/p>\n

ABERNETHY<\/strong>: You would be comfortable telling Mitt Romney that you think that he\u2019s not a Christian?<\/p>\n

LAND<\/strong>: Sure. That would be my duty as a Christian.<\/p>\n

ABERNETHY<\/strong>: Dr. Land says he is resigning his job next fall, not retiring. He says, of the social issues, I\u2019ll probably continue to talk about them.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
