A Crack in the Theocratic Infrastructure?

May 20th, 2011 by Frederick Clarkson

This history not withstanding, there is an ongoing tendency among some who ought to know better to pooh-pooh the influence and capacities of active theocratic elements operating in modern America. And the case at hand suggests that the institutional legacies of Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson may have a profound impact on society long after the time when people even remember their names. It also suggests that that future may not be pre-ordained, when we consider that the FBI is investigating the possible role of part of Falwell’s legacy in a federal kidnapping case.
