The religious right may be attracting more weight at the polls, but not all who agree with its views support its most prominent leader ? religious broadcaster Pat Robertson. Robertson's million-plus-member Christian Coalition is a significant political force among white conservatives. It dominates the Republican Party in South Carolina and 17 other states, according to a survey conducted by Campaigns & Elections magazine, a nonpartisan journal for political professionals. Coalition snnnort. also helned born-acrain rl 1 o Christian David Beasley win the GOP nomination for governor in his first race as a Republican. But while the coalition's take on modern American politics and culture has wide appeal, ifs not without deep-seated division. Those divisions underscore the problems facing Robertson's coalition as it tries to expand its mostly white, Pentecostal base to create a "moral majority." "Many people don't want to be part of the Christian right movement for religious reasons, but they certainly want to be allied with it on some issues," John Green, director of the Ray i CHILI] W/MUSTARI CHILI & ONI # REG.

Bliss Institute of Applied Politics at the University of Akron, told The (Columbia) State for a story Sunday. For the most part, Christian conservatives agree the United States is in spiritual and moral decline, a nation immersed in pop culture and personal vulgarity. But many evangelicals resent being lumped in with the Robertson's theology and style. The coalition grew out of Robertson's unsuccessful run for the presidency. "I think that's a little bit of the independence that Americans have," said the Rev. Jim Oliver of Bethlehem Baptist Church in Roebuck. He supports Robertson's stance on most issues but declines to be linked directly with him or his organization. Harry Dent, a Columbia-based Christian lay minister who served as President Nixon's chief political aide in the early 1970s, was less diplomatic. Tm not a Pat Robertson fan.

The Christian right includes fundamentalists, Pentecostals, evangelicals, mainline Protestants, churchgoing blacks, conservative Catholics and Mormons. , , , rr- 1 i w agsaaMsa X,^A III irftn ' 11 . *ppli r?nr * 12 OZ.

Prison's coalition Robertson's strident rhetoric frightens some Christian conservatives, causing many to reject his leadership. "We are seeing the Christian Coalition rise to where God intends it to be... one of the most powerful political forces thafs ever been in the history of America," Robertson said at the organization's annual conference in Washington last weekend. He has tipped the perception from religion as a good thing in general to religion as God's judgment, said David Leege, a political scientist at the University of Notre Dame. Those who are well educated and affluent have trouble with that, he said. Fundamentalists at Bob Jones University in Greenville are among those who refuse to be associated with Robertson, but a majority support Beasley. It doesn't mean we have any different view of the world and what needs to be done," said Bob Taylor, dean of the school's business administration department, who takes issue with Robertson's methods. "Fundamentalists are less likely to invoke religion in their participation of politics," he said. m v SANDY'S 5CHILI BURGERS 0 0 1/4 LB.
