Right-Wing Exposed

As we continue this four-part series on right-wing hypocrisy, we’ll focus on the right-wing’s propensity to liberally dispense family and marriage advice in an effort to save our culture.  Of course, leading the charge in this effort is James Dobson and his “Focus on the Family” organization.

Dobson and his Evangelical cohorts tell us that our American society is quickly degenerating.  They point to the breakup of the traditional American family, divorce and increasing addiction rates to alcohol, drugs and pornography.  And, I agree that these are troubling signs in our culture.

So, where’s the hypocrisy?  Jesus said that we are to “remove the log from our own eye before we attempt to remove the logs from the eyes of others”.  In other words, before we begin sharing our expert advice with others about any issue, we had better be sure that we have that issue under control ourselves.

Surveys done within the Evangelical Church over the past several years by the “Barna Research Group” have revealed some very troubling statistics.  Barna discovered that addiction rates and other sins within the Church rival the same percentages as those within our secular culture.  And, these surveys found that the divorce rate in the Church was just as high as among non-Christians.  In fact, in some areas of our nation, the Church’s divorce rate was actually higher.

Based on Barna’s statistical results we appear to have a situation where Evangelicals are basically saying to our secular society: “Our plan is failing within the Church, but you need to try it anyway.”  Wouldn’t it be wise for Evangelicals to get a working model in the Church before so freely dispensing their advice to others?  Perhaps Dobson’s Focus on the Family organization should spend more time focusing on Evangelical families and less time focusing on our secular culture. 

It has been nearly a millennium since the conclusion of the devastating Christian Crusades, but there are still Christian Crusaders today.  Their methods may appear to have changed, although many in the Middle East who have experienced the “shock and awe” and smart bombs of the American military would probably disagree; nonetheless, the desire for power and control remains the same for today’s Christian Crusaders. 

The Crusaders of the Middle Ages identified their enemies based upon their Islamic religion and geographical sphere of influence, then attacked and attempted to coerce them to submit to the Crusaders’ form of governance.  Likewise, contemporary Crusaders have also identified their international enemies based upon their geographical sphere of influence and their supposed “terror connections” to those within the Islamic religion.  They have labeled them as being an axis of evil.  However, there is another unholy alliance of politics and religion existing within the Christian right-wing’s own conservative domain.  It is indeed ironic that a modern “unholy alliance” of contemporary Christian Crusaders is intent on dismantling a declared “axis of evil” that is once again primarily comprised of Islamic people; moreover, with today’s Crusaders again trying to coerce them into their own style of governance.  Deja vu?  While their techniques appear to be more civilized, they still fully intend to win their battle for our culture.

Who are these modern, civilized Christian Crusaders?  They are right-wing, Christian leaders in powerful and influential positions, such as President George Bush, James Dobson and Pat Robertson.  Dobson and Robertson have broadcast audiences numbering in the millions.  And, they have been successful convincing their multitudes of listeners that our nation has been hijacked by dishonest and immoral politicians, which essentially means Democrats.  Therefore, they have also convinced their followers that it is their Christian duty to take their nation back by voting for right-wing candidates who will support their political agenda.

I have established this website and written my book, “Right Wing Politics and Religion: The Unholy Alliance Exposed”, to warn our secular culture and millions of sincere, conservative Christians that these men influence so greatly.  Beware!  Most of today’s Evangelical leaders are not what they appear to be.  And, I am exposing their duplicities.  After reading my book and discovering their intentional infidelity and disobedience to the God of Christianity, it becomes readily apparent that the primary duty and challenge for Evangelical Christians is not to take back their nation from dishonest and immoral politicians, but rather to take back their Church from deceptive, arrogant and hypocritical religious leaders.
