THE TITLE of tonight’s show is a reference to an episode of BBC sci-fi series Doctor Who which a religious order that dressed like ninja monks — Adherents of the Repeated Meme. It’s a fitting title for the major media, which keeps reminds us that the ranks of militia groups are swelling, hate crimes are on the rise, and a record number of threats are being recorded against President Barack Obama — all because disgruntled conservative (Christian) white people can’t find jobs, tolerate gays, or accept that an African-American sits in the Oval Office.
WITH COMPANY again and some furniture to move, we dig back into the archive again for one of our favorite interviews, and one that relates to the discussion of the Divine Council with Dr. Michael Heiser the other night.

That’s why it’s so easy to be distracted by leadership conferences with big name speakers and ecumenical movements that preach peace, tolerance, and good works.
