The part of San Francisco I lived in was the Presidio, which was then a military base. I was 12, and my father was an Army officer. I remember my family once driving toward the Presidio's Lombard Street gate past tens of thousands of protesters who seemed to think my father was part of a very bad outfit.

Many consider this "an unholy alliance of religious and political power." In our contemporary setting, when someone is charged with Constantinianism, they are being charged with too closely uniting these two - religious and political power - so that the church begins to see the state and legislation as a way to accomplish its goals.

In recent years, the Left and even the Democrats managed to appear hostile to faith and to people in faith communities. Regardless of what one's views of the divine are, that's called shooting yourself in the foot.
