Correct. The answer is c. Reagan’s 1980 election depended in part on the New Right’s successful creation of a coalition between economic conservatives and religious conservatives, such as Pat Robertson, Jerry Falwell, and the members of the Moral Majority. This speech is an example of many Ronald Reagan gave to assure religious conservatives that his administration continued to see their issues as central to his policies and programs.

Correct. The answer is a. Donald Wildmon’s statement is an example of fundamentalist and evangelical Protestants’ decision to embrace political activism in order to promote their morality-based agenda at the national level. Wildmon went on to found the American Family Association, which lobbied for fundamentalist Christian values as the basis for public policy.

Correct. The answer is d. In his speech, Giamatti rejected the New Right’s promotion of the agenda pushed by the so-called Moral Majority, which called for prayer in public schools, a ban on abortion, the criminality of homosexuality, and other limits on individual liberties.

Correct. The answer is b. In this decision, Kennedy wrote that the U.S. Constitution protects individual liberties and that it was unconstitutional for the State of Texas to demean the existence of homosexuals or criminalize their sexual activities. Giamatti, an advocate of pluralism and opponent of “unwarranted government intrusions” into private life, would agree with this decision. As conservative Christians, Reagan, Wildmon, and Falwell would condemn it.
