Entry: The Protocols of the Elders of Bryan--The Discovery Institute Inherits the Wind Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/the_protocols_of_the_elders_of_bryan_the_discovery_institute_inherits_the_w#22049 Post contents: There is a new book out on William Jennings Bryan, and the Scoops Monkey Trial, that indicates that Bryan’s motivation was based more on his defense of Christianity as the foundation for a just and humane morality. We have to remember that Bryan worked in the age of “Laissez Faire” and he feared without Christianity moraility, morality would deteriorate into pure selfish materialism. The book is “A Godly Hero: The Life of Willian Jennings Bryan”, by Michael Kazin. Of course, Bryan's concern that with Christianity debunked, society would deteriorate into teh “purse selfish materialism” is pretty much born out in the popularity of Ayn Rand’s cult group, or the economic agenda of the Republican Party. Given the attack on Christianity by the Corporate Media, Hollywood, and the promotion of materialism and consumerism by Big Business, and the resulting loss of hard won economic security by America's midlle class, maybe Bryan was right all along.
