Rushdoony's Great Beast
I am hearing a new history revision coming from modern radio and religious right prophets I had read about before in earlier journals from the movement. Earlier versions of the religious right in the U.S. believed that FDR invented a governmental failure in his New Deal. Some right wing preachers at the time referred to it as the "Jew Deal". I grew up with the dogma that Roosevelt set into motion government regulations and programs that helped lead us out of the Great Depression. What I am hearing repeated now is the New deal was a farce. It did not do anything but harm the nation according to a new host of talk show leaders in my region. & |
