]]>HAPPY THANKSGIVING! We’re back after a week away for work around the house and a wonderful visit with family.
Our focus today was on The Manhattan Declaration, a position paper issued Nov. 20, 2009 by a group of prominent Christian leaders. In short, the declaration calls Orthodox, Catholic, and evangelical Christians to defend the sanctity of human life, the dignity of marriage, and the rights of conscience and religious liberty.
Those are unquestionably values on which Christians can agree — but is it a statement of faith or a dominionist political platform? (The full list of religious leaders who’ve signed the declaration is here; read John MacArthur’s response to the declaration here.)
Also: The Family supports draconian anti-homosexual laws in Uganda; US and Iran in naval faceoff near Yemen; Blackwater’s secret war in Pakistan; the president’s surge in Afghanistan; and a brief review of The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown.

]]>EVANGELICAL CHRISTIANS are being coopted by the New Age movement, and most don’t even know it. Much of the reading we’ve been doing this week has revolved around that fact, and a good part of tonight’s show explores some of the evidence.
In short, dominionists, emerging churchers, and ecumenical groups are all aiming for the same goal as New Agers: heaven on Earth. Which may explain, for example, why influential New Ager Paul Temple, founder of the Institute of Noetic Sciences, donates so much money to the secretive and politically connected evangelical group The Family. (More about that tomorrow on this week’s View From the Bunker.)
Watch for keywords like “shift”, “bridge”, and “transformation”, and be wary of what they really mean.
Also: Doctor Death Ray; ACORN goes nuts; atheists go ape; President Obama’s deal with Russia; the UK’s deal with Libya (see Susan Lindauer’s comments at Derek’s blog by clicking here); Dave Duncan’s warnings proving true (read The New World Order Scam–please!); and Dan Brown’s new novel promotes the craft.
