New Group: The Anti-Theocratic Movement

[ck4829]

"The (something religious) today has fallen prey to the heresy of democracy."

Do you know who said this? It wasn't Osama bin Laden, or a Muslim terrorist. It was RJ Rushdoony, founder of the Christian Reconstructionist movement, which wants to turn America into a Theocracy. The Christian Right is likned to this movement in many ways and uses a watered down version of their principles.

Join us and help us oppose the people and groups that want to replace America's wonderful Democracy with a brutal Theocracy.

Inform Yourself -- Spread the Word

The rise of the Religious Right in the Republican Party is one of the most important stories in modern American political history, yet it is so little understood. You can help educate yourself and others by speaking in public on this important issue.

We've made it easy for you. Joan Bokaer has put her entire presentation, including the script and PowerPoint slide and text show, on a CD for you to use; you need only supply the laptop computer and a projector, and you can be a public speaker. (PowerPoint Player is included.)

Educational materials provided by TheocracyWatch will give you an opportunity to understand the role the Religious Right is playing in shaping our world. The CDs, DVDs, and audiocassette provide a distillation of the vast amount of material covered in the TheocracyWatch website.

2. I've seen it. Very informative

It's one of the reasons why Theocracy Watch is in the Links section of the group.

3. Good idea

Besides, if I want a critic of democracy, I'll choose Mencken over Rushdoony anytime. At least Mencken is funny.
