Ministers preached politics publicly and churches distributed the most vicious electioneering materials. Practically no one I met escaped the pressure of this overriding problem and both parties were ultimately forced to make their major calculations with the religious question a foremost consideration.” ProblemChurchReligiousPartyIssuesRecordsAtheismMaterialsRepublicanMetsMajorsPressureElectionImpactMeetingsDemocratCarefulMinistersConsiderationViciousCalculationsCounty Author:James A.

“A huge amount of what feminists are fighting for would have major positive impact for men as well as women. Take the male suicide rate, for example. In part, the problem arises from the idea that men are tough and manly, that 'boys don't cry' and it's embarrassing for them to talk about their feelings.
