This sounds very familiar

A group who believes in establishing a government based on religious principles. Individuals who want to "call back the country to a righteous standard." Sounds like the kind of thing our leaders are trying to avoid. An Islamic state, you say?

Er, no. Try a Christian state in America (and yes, the country is already very far from a secular nation).

The Los Angeles Times reports:

"Christian Exodus activists plan to take control of sheriff's offices, city councils and school boards. Eventually, they say, they will control South Carolina. They will pass godly legislation, defying Supreme Court rulings on the separation of church and state."

  1. I read that a special envoy is being sent by Australia to teach 'we're so cool cos our women wear minis' values in the United States. Expect the Gerard Henderson polemical essay in a few days time.

  2. Antony, the last time such outright subversion took place in the States, the National Guard was called in to escort black kids into schools. Expect more of the same, despite the existence of neo-con-artists in Washington. Neo-cons have no tolerance for anyone imposing their morality on others except for themselves.
