EVANGELICAL CHRISTIANS are being coopted by the New Age movement, and most don’t even know it. Much of the reading we’ve been doing this week has revolved around that fact, and a good part of tonight’s show explores some of the evidence. In short, dominionists, emerging churchers, and ecumenical groups are all aiming for the same goal as New Agers: heaven on Earth. Which may explain, for example, why influential New Ager Paul Temple, founder of the Institute of Noetic Sciences, donates so much money to the secretive and politically connected evangelical group The Family.
BLESSED AGAIN with company in the bunker tonight, we delve deeper into the archives for another foundational interview. This is from December of 2005, a talk with researcher and author Peter Goodgame about his excellent book Red Moon Rising.
TONIGHT’S SHOW is a quick roundup of news that caught our attention, starting with a recommendation by some medical experts that Gardisil, the vaccine against the Human Papilloma Virus, be administered to boys. Also, evil alien memes in TV and movies; the White House Military Office now in charge of continuity of government; and the “son of Krakatoa” is rumbling.
