3. The only thing I've consistently said...

Is that if religion wasn't a factor, someone like MLK would have rose up and filled the vacuum of the times, demanding social change just the same. I just think the "moderates" make much ado about MLK's faith, when really if it wasn't for the fact that religion was so prevalent in those times, it could just as easily have been an agnostic or atheist person filling those shoes.

All things being equal, change was bound happen, nothing was going to stop it. History demanded it at the time.
