The sad truth is that these crackpot evangelical christians DO believe the fantasies they have fabricated and they are attempting to remake America and the world based on those fantasies.
Let's don't shoot the messenger. In addition to being a journalist, Mr. Moyers is/was an ordained Southern Babtist minister from Texas. I suspect he understands the perspective of these crackpots better than most. He has not, however, stated that he himself subscribes to their little fantasy. That THEY do is the problem. Demian ====================================== From: Legal Eagle abogado at sympatico.ca <snip> One of the biggest changes in politics in my lifetime is that the delusional is no longer marginal. It has come in from the fringe, to sit in the seat of power in the Oval Office and in Congress. For the first time in our history, ideology and theology hold a monopoly of power inWashington. </snip> Other than having it right on the delusional no longer being marginal but front and center Mr Moyers portends to speak of things he knows little of, or has been coached by someone who has his/her story quite distorted. As for the so-called "Biblical lands" bit one would be hard pressed to find anyone who now lives in the political state of Israel who actually has semitic blood in them baring the Arabs who also live there, so therefore any reference to the tie-in with historical Hebrews is outrageous, contrary to the popular myth commonly believed. So, if everything hinges upon those who are presently occupying the political state of Israel as being some sort of legitimate blood heirs to the land they occupy is starting off with an erratum as a foundation and therefore anything that follows is also in error. And, of course, this erratum is the cornerstone of the so-called christians who identify as "christian zionists". The entire foundation of the blind alley they walk is baseless in Scripture, as is a great percentage of what these ralte as what the Bible does nad does not say. The information being put forth is out contextualized and in many cases reversed and out of chronology with events that are predicted. But then when one starts a foudation off on a lie how can the building reflects any truth.
