A Nation Under God

Larry McDonald

"Yet for all its influence, Reconstruction is almost invisible to the media and secular society. Atlanta is ground zero for most Reconstruction activity—home office to DeMar’s publishing house and home district to movement prophet Larry McDonald, who served four terms in Congress in the 1970s and 1980s—but the Atlanta Journal-Constitution has done only one major article on the movement."  John Sugg, Mother Jones

"America The Theocracy" 

 by John F. Sugg
ContributingEditor

Creative Loafing Atlanta  March, 2004 

This is a long but very readable introduction to Dominionism by the award-winning  editor of the Atlanta alternative weekly Creative Loafing. Highly recommended.--KJ

A band of influential preachers is praying for the power to rule America. For those who disagree, they have a solution -- stoning.

The Reconstruction (theocracy) movement has burrowed deep into the religious right. Its architects have gained strength via a broad alliance with other religious advocates who seek a radical restructuring of America. Reconstruction and dominion theology certainly set much of the agenda for conservative Christianity's political activism.

Gary DeMar,  Presbyterian Church  in America preacher 

All governments are theocracies. We now live in a secular, humanist theocracy. Yes, I want to change that to a government with God at its head.
---- Gary Demar

 His  American Vision website is now considered a hatemonger by the Southern Poverty Law Center

Is DeMar championing a theocracy? With the rueful smile of one who has been hit with this one before, he retorts: "All governments are theocracies. We now live in a secular, humanist theocracy. Yes, I want to change that to a government with God at its head."

Demar, the avowed theocrat,  co-authored   CHRISTIAN RECONSTRUCTION:
What It Is, What It Isn' t    (Tyler, Texas: Institute for Christian Economics, 1991)
 with master Religious Right strategist Gary K North. North has called it the single best explanation of the Christian Dominion movement. The FREE Ebook is made possible by the generosity of  North's radical free market underwriters.
