The New Nazis


There is an incredible article about the Religious Right posted here. Its claims that the Religious Right is seeking to control the US government, and ultimately all of its citizens is due to the belief that this is a requirement of the Rapture. To quote the author,

"...Adams warned us against the blindness caused by intellectual snobbery. The Nazis, he said, were not going to return with swastikas and brown shirts. Their ideological inheritors had found a mask for fascism in the pages of the Bible."

This is well-worth the reading time. I will be using more quotes from this article over the next few days as I think it explains a lot about the attitude of the far-right-wing in demonizing their opponents.
