HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE ARTICLE:
- Palin's pastor, Mike Rose, is connected with the "Third Wave Movement"--a movement in neopente dominionist circles that is the major theological home of "Joel's Army". (Joel's Army is prophesied to become an Armageddon-ready military force of young people with a divine mandate to physically impose Christian 'dominion' on non-believers. More about Joel's Army here: Web Link )
- Palin explicitly promoted "teach the controversy" by calling for the misnamed "creation science" to be taught in public schools.
- It also appears that Sarah Palin is a member of a misnamed group called Feminists for Life... FFL promotes such fun bogosities as "post-abortion syndrome" (the idea that having an abortion will inevitably lead to PTSD and insanity), and promotes mandatory waiting periods and misinformation guidelines that can be insurmountable for poor or rural women--even those forced to make the most heartbreaking choice because of a nonviable pregnancy.
-Palin was head of the local Fellowship of Christian Athletes branch in her school--up to and including leading team prayers... FCA is, in fact, a known frontgroup of the coercive dominionist group Campus Crusade for Christ--yes, the selfsame Campus Crusade that has such close links to the Assemblies of God that it can be described as a "conjoined twin" of the Assemblies and the same one documented as having links to an ever-widening prosyletisation scandal in our Armed Forces. FCA also gets quite a lot of cash from de facto Assemblies funding-front Hobby Lobby--a chain, of note, that has bailed out a neopente university and has even funded paramilitary "Joel's Army" groups targeting teens.
