Christian right

Christian Right is a term collectively referring to a spectrum of conservative Christian political and social movements and organizations characterized by their strong support of traditional social values in the United States and other western countries. The terms Christian Right and Religious right are sometimes used interchangeably, although this is problematic (see discussion at Religious right).
