www.TheocracyWatch.org
Want to understand how we got to the point where one of the two major US parties is controlled by fundamentalists?

Check out this excellent website:

http://www.TheocracyWatch.org

The Rise of the Religious Right in the Republican Party

The site design is not the best, but it is worth the effort to work your way through this site.

The documentation is excellent and frightening. It is so important for us to know these facts, and for the word to spread. The GOP has been hijacked by the "religious right", who have been biding their time and laying low.

Now they're coming out. And imposing their agenda. Which by the way has a lot in common with the agenda of the corporations. It's all in their theology.

Check it out!

6. Thank you for the link.
I'm just about brain dead now, but I bookmarked it for further reading.
The heading at the top of the site "Theocracy Watch: Making Sense Out of World Events."
Gee, it's about time SOMEONE did that. lol?

I swear, I could stay online 24/7 and never get caught up on all I need to read, write, learn, post, etc. sigh. But I'll keep working away! :) With a little sleep here and there.

7. it'll keep you going!
there's tons of info all very well documented.

I've found it useful especially for moderate republicans (I'm in NY State), who for some reason seem unaware that the national party has been hijacked by the fundies. This really wakes them up.

I then tell them it's their responsibility to take back their party.

10. You want scary? HERE is scary -- check out this info about MOON!
http://cellwhitman.blogspot.com/

Who IS driving the bus?

Among the goals of the Moon Organization is the establishment of a worldwide government in which the separation of church and state would be abolished and which would be governed by Moon and his followers.

This is a VERY long piece, but I urge everyone to read the whole thing. It's unbelievable -- but it's TRUE! There is some very ugly dangerous stuff going on under the radar...

13. Yes! Thanks for the info. and here's some religious ammo. for you...
Also, CNN is doing a piece on the religious right, I think tonight. If you guys want some good religious ammo look into Dr. Gene Scott on genescott.com He really knows what he's talking about and he opposes the fundamentalists and televangelists
