520    On Christmas Day in 1984 three abortion clinics in 
       Pensacola, Florida, were bombed by four young people who 
       later went to trial and were convicted and sentenced. The 
       authors explore this moral drama as a case study of 
       religiously motivated political action. (The perpetrators 
       identified with Gideon, the Old Testament slayer of those 
       who sacrificed firstborn infants to Baal.) Their analysis 
       sheds light on the violent wing of the anti-abortion 
       movement. Placing anti-abortion violence in the context of
       social movement theory, the authors conclude that persons 
       who are predisposed toward such behavior are likely to be 
       working-class males under age 35, socially isolated from 
       countervailing attitudes. Religious fundamentalists, they 
       warn, will continue to utilize violence in reaction to 
       such subjects as pornography, homosexuality, sex education,
       equality for females, and prayer in public schools. For 
       this book the authors conducted interviews with local 
       activists on both sides of the abortion issue. They 
       attended the Pensacola trial and interviewed local 
       religious fundamentalists, personnel of clinics throughout
       the United States that have been subjected to arson or 
       bombing, and, when possible, persons who have been tried 
       and convicted of those offenses.
