Add Calvinism plus Ayn Rand plus the Prosperity Gospel and you have a repulsive mix that is the Religious Right.

Exactly - though the Prosperity Gospel lie is pure Calvinist in itself for in that fallacy those few who are elect (“saved”) will be shown by their god ordained prosperity. That it is utterly opposed to everything that the Rabbi from Nazareth taught is irrelevant to those who stand to gain secular power and secular wealth from it. I realize I will not be able to defeat this but I can fight it for whatever little that is worth.
