Reviewed in the United States on July 19, 2018
I purchased this book after seeing Jeff Sharlett on the Rachel Maddow Show some time after he wrote it. It intrigues me, because I had read some other articles about the influence of the fundamentalists on our government. Also, that Jeff had started out researching religions,mas his parents were Christian and Jewish, and he was searching for his place.
Little did he know what he would find when he started this journey. Last night, I saw him on CNN again. It seems the arrest of the Russian woman, Maria Butina, has reopened this can of worms. She infiltrated the NRA and other right leaning groups to find out how to influence Americans, for the Kremlin. Her attendance at The National Prayer Breakfast , as were 50 other Russians, just confirms what thus book originally talked about. That the agenda of the Kremlin and far right churches and groups, is the same, only hoping for different outcomes.
There is a mention of Hillary Clinton attending prayer meetings in DC, but not that she was an active member. At any rate, the book becomes very relevant today......literally today. I am a Christian who was horrified by what I read, but , in the age of Trump, no longer even surprised by anything that goes on in the world.
