Blueprint for Theocracy: The Christian Right's Vision for America

James C. Sanford

4.9/5 (30411 ratings)

Description:From its beginnings in the late 1970s, the Religious Right has expressed hostility toward America's open, secular society and made no secret of its desire to transform the country into an explicitly "Christian" nation. Given such controversial positions, it is remarkable how little attention has been given to the ideology that shapes its thinking.This well-researched book is the first to explore fully the nature and origin of the Religious Right's highly charged ideas. The movement's belief system, commonly called "Christian Worldview," is traced to four Christian thinkers known for their authoritarian, and in some cases, anti-democratic doctrines. These doctrines, modified and incorporated by the movement over a number of years, have since been widely disseminated to followers through textbooks and seminars.The ideology promotes a highly conservative view of the world uniquely identified with Truth and God's word. On the basis of this worldview, religious rightists are able to redefine freedom, law, government, and even history and science, in their own infallible terms. A vision for the future and plan of action are formed on the basis of these certainties. The book concludes by discussing the danger the ideology poses to democratic society and offers intelligent ways of confronting it.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
