Theocracy Watch: Dominion Theology (1/5)

Joan Bokaer of Cornell University's Theocracy Watch gives a rundown on the growing danger of Dominionism, also known as Christian Reconstructionism, the ideology behind the movements of Christian extremism in the United States and abroad. An important video for anyone who wants to understand the motives of the American Taliban and what's happening to New World politics. If you think these people are just harmless nutjobs, you're making a fatal mistake.

Comments will be disabled for the remaining four videos in the sequence in order to promote centralized discussion.

Fuck me sideways! Christian Sharia, what a blood chilling thought. America has far more than it’s fare share of religious nut jobs.

I support Democracy, so I clearly can't be Christian or Christ-like. Thanks, I can finally go to bed happy.

Humanists, like the man/woman in this video, fear Christian Reconstructionists or Dominionists want to implement God's rule over society through a heavy top-down bureaucracy because that is how THEY have implemented social change. Nothing could be further from the truth. Christian Reconstructionists believe that the key is personal regeneration through the saving power of Jesus Christ, then and only then can a society begin to reflect God's Law-Word standard on culture.

Actually the Nazi Party was mainly attractive to protestants, With only 14% of Catholics supporting the party in July of 1932 and 40% of non-Catholics. The Nazis had low support from Catholics until they came to power, and then of course the Catholics had no choice. Some early Nazis were Catholic but there never seemed to be an extreme trend towards Catholicism.

Oh yeah, Saying that Catholics are not Christian is your incorrect opinion and a no-true Scotsman fallacy.

well, now you can tell that were moving towards a theocracy, just look at whos crept up to lead the right-wing in this country: Crazy extreme christians, who cant seem to except that everyone has their own beliefs. I seriously wish that people kept religious shit to themselves, not that religion is wrong, but shoving your own personal beliefs down other peoples throats is down right annoying

@macmarine Are you referring to 'Christian Catholics'? If so that is oxymoronic. I don't mean to offend you, but the German 'christians' who were nazi's were Catholic. And catholics are not Christian. Otherwise, the Catholic Nazi's were sociopathic freaks, I agree.

I'm sorry for a second comment but PAT ROBERTSON and the word Christian shouldn't be in the same sentence, nor the 700 club or tBN. They are evil to the core and part of a total scam. They make me so sick. They are misleading so many people. They are setting people up for destruction and death-just wait and see.

There has to be a seperation of church and state--otherwise one religion rules and that is wrong on any level, even to christians who understand that God gave us all FREE WILL. It was never God's intention to have christians rule the world. Read the damn bible-just read revelations geeze. But this sure is perfect for a fake messiah saying he's 'christ.'
