Religion and American Foreign Policy, 1945–1960: The Soul of Containment
Inboden, William, III
Presidents Truman and Eisenhower, and many other American leaders, opposed communism because of its hostility to religion. American Protestant churches were divided, and so American political leaders constructed a new civil religion to mobilize domestic support, determine the boundaries of containment, unite people against communism, and undermine communist governments abroad.
