How did America get into a situation where radical right-wing demagogues are threatening wide-spread violence, wanting to enforce their half-baked belief system on a majority that does not agree? The answer can be simple or complex, political or spiritual, depending on your point of view. Some points to consider:
1) Mythology. America has never been the model of democracy that it portrays itself to be and there is a desperate backlash against the truth by those who idolize Americanism.
2) Billionaires. For no visible reason beyond feeding their overwhelming greed, corporate billionaires have taken control of the government through a system of legalized political bribery. Their apparent intention is to maintain control of the masses by any means necessary – divide and conquer being their favorite weapon.
3) Propaganda. The current state of political and social dysfunction in America is largely the product of an evil, propagandistic, right-wing media complex; created and deployed by an often-unnamed oligarchy. It spews the propaganda that continues to convince a large segment of low information voters to support the status quo. What are long-term motives of those who own and control this malevolent media juggernaut? As Christians we must consider the spiritual intent behind the creation and sponsorship of a machine that manufactures a limitless supply of lies. John 8:44
Right Wing Propaganda - Apostate Religion Plays its Part
This series of posts will discuss several unbiblical teachings, spread by influential American church leaders, that have been weaponized as part and parcel of right-wing political propaganda. These teachings have been a crucial component of the decades long propaganda campaign to encourage people to vote against their neighbor’s best interests, as well as their own. Mark 12:31 It will be up to you to decide whether such statements are consistent with the GOSPEL or if they were made entirely in the service of worldly, right-wing, Christian Nationalist politics. The outline:
Part 1. Recent political statements from the reformed church that oppose the BIBLE.
Part 2. Dispensational theology – what it is and the role it plays in Christian Nationalism.
Part 3. Racism – how can right-wing political Christians say they are not racists but still openly support anti-Black racism?
Part 4. Dominionism and Christian Nationalism are woven into the right wing’s proto-fascist agenda. What is their desired end game?
