Democrats are using socialist attitudes to stifle Christian values in the United States, author David Horowitz told Newsmax TV.
"The Democratic Party has been taken over by radical leftist," Horowitz told Tuesday's "Greg Kelly Reports." "There are a lot of decent people in the Democratic Party.
"There are a lot of religious people, there pro-life people in the Democratic Party, but they're not running the party. The people running the party see Christianity, see religious people, as an obstacle to their plans to turn America to a socialist state. It's as simple as that.
"The argument is that churches are not an essential institution but abortion mills are," Horowitz said. "All you need to know about this is on Easter Sunday, the holiest day in the Christian calendar, they close the churches and open the jails to let the criminals out."
Horowitz said the United States built its foundation on Christian values, whether Democrats want to accept that or not.
"I would argue that religion and churches, and particularly Christian churches, are the most essential institutions in American life," Horowitz said, adding, "and I say that as an agnostic Jew who's non-observant.
"I say this as an American, every freedom that we hold dear, every value – equality, liberty, tolerance, inclusion – all originated as Christian ideas."
Howoritz is author of "Dark Agenda: The War to Destroy Christian America."
