Scary Stuff from the Religious Right (again)

[omorka]

This post from Orcinus connects the hard-right anti-immigration rhetoric with the Religious Right's whole Dominionist argument. I'm not sure if it's at heart the same impulse, or if the latter is just borrowing the former's language in order to strengthen the political alliance (which has been showing wear at the seams recently).

"Idolatry of ideology" sounds about right.

"If This Goes On" and The Handmaid's Tale are not how-to manuals.

I read somewhere that Heinlein had plotted out a story or two to show just how Scudder took power in his alt-history America, but it depressed and scared him too much to write it.

May we never have to live through it.
