Michelle Goldberg, a Defcon Advisory Board member and author of "Kingdom Coming: The Rise of Christian Nationalism", will debate Phil Burress, president of the religious right organization Ohio Citizens for Community Values, at Xavier University on Tueday, August 29th at 7pm.

Burress is an outspoken leader of the religious right's assault on gay and lesbian Americans, especially in Ohio. Earlier this month, James Dobson's Focus on the Family announced they have partnered with Burress and Ohio Citizens for Community Values in their most recent campaign to "educate voters" in eight key states, including Ohio.

Michelle, the author of the must read "Kingdom Coming: The Rise of Christian Nationalism", is a veteran reporter and expert on the religious right.
