About 700 conservative Christians gathered at an Atlanta church yesterday for a rally that included Goveor Perdue, former Alabama Supreme Court Justice Roy Moore and three Georgia Republicans vying for a U-S Senate seat.

The Christian Coalition's 2004 Family and Freedom Kickoff was held at Mount Veon Baptist Church.

 

Members of the coalition -- considered some of the G-O-P's most loyal and active voters -- listened to speeches supporting the war on terrorism, advocating a ban on gay marriage and pushing the public display of the Ten Commandments.

U-S Representatives Johnny Isakson and Mac Collins, as well as former Godfather's Pizza mogul Herman Cain, also participated in a question-and-answer forum. The three are gaering votes in their respective runs for the Senate seat being vacated by Democrat Zell Miller. A fourth Republican candidate -- businessman Al Bartell -- was NOT in attendance.
