Lunatic, he spends a lot of time in the book talking about the roots of fascism and the cultural features it has wherever it crops up. You might be interested.

I've read excerpts of the book...and I find it enlighting.

The extreme Christian right has an agenda, that at many times doesn't include what Jesus would do. A lot of it is hypocritical.

As for Palestine, they want to be an independent nation....not occupied for another 40 years. They don't have a major army, so they fight back the only way they know how.

I'll agree with you that religion is fascist, at least the Catholic church is. And they are PROUD of it too! Of course, the "little" people in the church would deny it for not knowing the true history of their own religion. Let them argue the point among themselves for not knowing the truth about it! Communism came out of the Catholic church--ponder that!

I'm not trying to write a book here so I''ll just get to the point: Religion has nothing in common with Christianity even though many religions proclaim to be Christian. The history Catholic church is proof of that. Read this book titled "The Secret History of the Jesuits", by Edmond Paris (a former catholic). I, too, am a former catholic. Meaning, this book is not misleading.

As for the Christian "Right", look up the definition of the word "right", it sure doesn't mean wrong. I hate to put it that way...

As for a "war" in America, the liberals started it when they decided they hated God. Therefore, they hate America. That is why the saying goes, "If you hate America [or our military], vote for a democrat." Democrats will do anything to destory America and then claim they did it on the bases of "I think" or "I feel".

No. But his ability to not understand the word "Facists" is amazing. Christianity control would be a Theological based government. Most last century facists and totalitarianism have not been Christian. Most have been Islamic and anti-religious. Socialism, Communism, Nazi, are all anti religious Faciist ideals.

Nope, but I'm enjoying "Deliver Us From Evil" by Hannity. Great read! I also really liked, "Shut Up and Sing" by Laura Ingraham. Next book I plan on buying is "Unhinged" by Michelle Malkin.

VERY POORLY WRITTEN, AMATEURISH, AND NOT WELL DOCUMENTED...

It was like reading your posts on YA.

More importantly, after you unhinged Anti-Christs ended John Edwards political career with your Anti-Christian hate speech about the Virigin Mary, Blessed Mother of Christ, I can only hope that you Losers continue until all of your candidates have to drop out.

"The influence that the Christian Right holds is laughably out of date."

The numbskull who posted that states a solid case of Right wing propaganda -

I will prove my case against her.

1. Anti-choice pharmacists across the country are even taking a stand against the evils of birth control, refusing to fill prescriptions for oral contraceptives--including for rape victims.

2. John Roberts confirmed Chief Justice.

3. Just how right wing is “Scalito”? In 1992, he was the only judge on the Third U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to dissent in Planned Parenthood v. Casey, when the court struck down a Pennsylvania law requiring that women seeking abortions consult their husbands.

4. Antigay demonstrations have featured prominent Christian fundamentalists who quote the Old Testament like it was written yesterday. These cretin Christian Right forces have mobilized pressure on Republicans who were hesitant to take a stand for an antigay marriage amendment and are succeeding in undermining democracy to do so.

5. They are hypocrites for example, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich--one of the most self-righteous proponents of the "sanctity of marriage"--is now well into his third, after divorcing his first two wives.

6. Alarmed conservatives, want to turn back the clock and resurrect the ideal of the male breadwinner and the woman who sees her main role in life as a wife and mother. For this reason, Bush has proposed a $1.5 billion program to promote marriage among the poor.

7. In practice, the Christian Right’s idea of "family values" coerces low-income women facing domestic violence into marriage, while denying gay couples, however loving and stable, the very basic right to legalize their union through marriage.

8. Darfur - privatized support from U.S. Christian evangelicals who back the Christian and animist fighters of the SPLA against the Islamists of the central government. Thus, escalating the war in Darfur and the genocide.

9. Bush cut short one of his 2005 vacations to rush back to Washington and sign emergency legislation that could pave the way for doctors to reattach a feeding tube to the 41-year-old Terry Schiavo, who has been in what doctors call a “persistent vegetative state” for the past 15 years following a heart attack.

10. Christian Right has expanded its crusade against abortion to include so-called “killer” birth control pills. Pharmacy by pharmacy, members of “Pharmacists for Life” are refusing to fill doctors’ prescriptions for emergency “morning after” pills and other oral contraceptives.

SO PEOPLE PLEASE... THE RIGHT WING DARK AGES LOVING - LOVE THE FETUS HATE THE CHILD - MANIACS ARE STILL ACTIVE AND DON'T FORGET IT.

The influence that the Christian Right holds is laughably out of date. Not since Reagan have that small minority wielded any power, they are totally irrelevant..

The left uses the phrase Christian Right as part of their fear mongering campaigns. It ranks up there with "the GOP will take away welfare", "the GOP will cut social Security" and the "GOP will outlaw abortion". It is all part of the liberal propaganda machine.

Meh. Just another "The religious right is destroying America" diatribe. Dime-a-dozen these days.

But hey, if that's what floats your boat, by all means, read on.
