[lit-ideas] Re: When Unspeakable Evil Just Isn't Enough....

Read the current issue of Harper's Weekly. There are two long articles about 
the 
mega-churches and the Evangelical radio broadcaster networks. It discusses 
their political 
ambitions, their violent homophobia, and their anti-semitism.

These are not fringe cults anymore; James Dobson of the National Religious 
Broadcasters 
(NRB) (1,600 radio and TV stations, 141 million listeners) and Ted Haggard 
("Pastor Ted") of 
the National Association of Evangelicals (NEA) (45,000 churches, 30 million 
people) have 
enormous political power in the Republican Party and they are using it.

Start paying attention to "Dominionists" (based on a line in the Old Testament: 
they shall 
have dominion over the earth). The evangelicals are now calling themselves 
Dominionist. They 
intend to take control over the USA and get rid of secular law, humanists, the 
"Homosexual 
Agenda", feminists, and activist judges. The Schiavo case was an example of 
their disregard 
for the courts.

What's remarkable is that Dominionists see themselves as under attack and they 
must strike 
back.
