re: #8 RealityBasedSteve

I’ve been aware of the 7 Mountain movement for quite a while and I’ve spoken to a number of people who either poo-poo it or start checking me for tin-foil hats.

I’ve seen them in action here in TN, they don’t always “Talk the Talk” in public, but the dog-whistles are more than clear. I’ve sometimes phrased a question to them in a way that suggests I’m part of their camp, and the responses are usually enough to confirm my suspicions. I suspect that they are going to go for a lot of smaller positions, school boards, planning commissions, city and county govt. and from there build into higher levels of power.

I see this as a very real threat. These folks are well organized, they have a lot of money behind them, and since they view themselves almost as “Christian soldiers behind enemy lines”, they do a good job of not drawing attention to themselves.

I think that this is a very real threat.

The various groups with somewhat different doctrines make it hard to define and measure them precisely. The Colorado church that brings us “Jesus Camp”, and the Joel’s Army movement is in there, and they are way too large to be ignored. Dominionism is more an ideology than a hierarchy, with a good bit of internal strife and shunnings.
