""No one is more on top of the challenges facing the first amendment than Barry Lynn. We are lucky he is paying attention, for no one sees more clearly how important it is that our government and whatever religion you choose to practice remain separated. By doing so, he is one of those who are keeping the lamp of liberty lit. With intelligence, wisdom, humanity, and a devilish wit, Lynn makes the issues come alive, and thereby we all become wiser. It is a book you should grab and read. You won't regret it." -- LEWIS BLACK, comedian "This book is a must-read for feminists and for all Americans who support women's rights--especially reproductive rights. Increasingly 'religious liberty' is being used to block women's access to abortion and birth control. That is 'religious liberty' for everyone--employers, right-wing politicians, bishops--except women who need access. Barry Lynn knows all the tricks, twists, and turns of those who want to turn the clock back several centuries. When he speaks, I take notes. His insights from twenty-five years on the front lines are extremely valuable." -- ELEANOR SMEAL, president of the Feminist Majority Foundation "Before I fled the religious right Barry Lynn would have been a deadly enemy. I'd have seen him as someone standing between us and the theocracy we were trying to turn America into. This book is literally a defense of freedom against the theocratic illness. As Lynn writes 'From cradle to grave, the Religious Right is concerned about every choice you make.' It is up to us to stop them from dominating every aspect of American life too. This book is a good place to start." -- FRANK SCHAEFFER, author of Crazy for God
