The Forces of Evil depend upon our Malaise
"With the apathy that exists today, a small, well-organized minority can influence the selection of candidates to an astonishing degree."

Pat Robertson wrote those words in The Millennium, 1990, and it has been a key organizing principle of the theocratic right ever since.

"The apathy of other Americans can become a blessing and advantage to Christians," wrote Mark Beliles and Stephen McDowell in 1989, in America's Providential History, a popular textbook for Christian schools and the Christian homeschool movement.

If just 10% of all Christians in America today woke up and realized how easy it is, got involved consistently for the long haul, it would not take long to reform America completely. (p.266)

We must get up, we must move, we must teach the People, we have to do something for us, our children, and for Civilization itself.

1. Buy
Lots of guns and ammo. If they keep up, it'll be needed to protect your kids from molesting Christians.

2. Oh well, or is it
oh hell, Pat Robertson's RIGHT, pun intended. If there is no market for a product, service, etc; you can't sell it. Unfortunately, our malaise created a "market" for the RIGHT stuff, pun again intended. Wake UP, USA!

3. When we didn't "rise up" when the vote re-counting was halted in 2000
I don't think we ever will.
