| 289 Notes Prelude 1. Among these are Balmer 2006, Hedges 2006, Brint and Schroedel 2009a, 2009b. This reference style is used: an author’s name is mentioned in the text and the complete reference to the author’s work is in the bibliography. Notes refer to specifics of an author’s work and to relevant information. Where sources are not mentioned, the information comes from my fieldwork, e.g., Appendix 9 lists my expert witness court testimony for which I also conducted research. 2. Harding 2000. 3.

Note: The surveys of sociologists Baker 2005 and Greeley and Hout 2006 found that Americans are not divided into two opposed camps based on incompatible views of moral authority and, in fact, they tend to share views. The researchers claim the culture war was a myth. But here’s the problem. My work since 1995 relies on ethnographic data nationwide, set questions and openended ones, what is said and done, what I hear and see to investigate complex issues. I did find ongoing battles between religionists and constitutionalists. Greeley and Hout rely on sociodemographic data from the General Social Survey with predetermined questions conducted by the National Opinion Research Center since 1972. They focus on a sample of the total population over combined political eras from 1968 to 2004 (p. 42) to draw a big picture—more than thirty-six years that lack “the precision necessary for intricate investigations of complex issues” (p. 13). They do single out a two-year period for some analyses. Their discussion of sex is about premarital teen and extramarital sex, abortion, homosexuality, and pornography. My work discusses the communication of, for example, sexual fantasy, nudity, and proximity. They recognize that there are “zealous Conservative Christians who try to use their smoke and mirrors to enforce their convictions on the media, school districts, courts, and local governments ” (p. 182). Similarly, Baker, using the World Values Surveys 1981–2000, which he asserts is “the most comprehensive test of the culture war thesis yet available,” concludes that the culture war is largely a fiction. But readers can draw their own conclusions. See also Boston 2011b. 6. Boston 2011b: 8 7. Khan 2008. 8. Watson 2010. 290 | notes to pages 7–21 9. Vitello 2008. 10.

Then, when he wouldn’t pray with his fellow soldiers, they ostracized him and threatened his life. Soldiers are pressured to attend state-led religious practices that some find offensive and false, humiliating and dehumanizing. They object to official military retreats at off-base churches, appearances of uniformed officers at religious events, displays of crucifixes at military chapels. The Military Religious Freedom Foundation has received more than five hundred complaints of religious bias a month, Lichtblau 2009. See also Rodda 2010. 5. Weinstein and Seay 2006: 173. 6.
