"Religion, Race, & Region", or "Religion in Southern Politics"

A research topic has been reached. I began thinking I would research Christian-Atheist Relations in the South. However, I do not care about Christian Atheist relations, except in its impact.

It has been said: Religion is like a Penis. It's great, but don't pull it out in public, no matter how proud of it you are. And never try to shove it down other peoples throats.

The rubber of religion meets the road in politics. The South is wrought with laws imposing particular faith's beliefs. This is where I intend to research.

My areas of intrest include: Genealogy of MoralsBlack Liberation Theology, and Blue Laws.

  1. Okay, so you're on to something about religious implications of political rhetoric and legal realities. Nice. There are endless things to say about EACH of the three areas of interest, so if you use them all, just make sure to be strategic about a unifying thread that gives a clear direction and that makes clear why these particular topics are useful in conversation WITH one another (we need to talk about these three specifically, you'll suggest, because..........)

    make sense?
