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.
WE HAVE company again in the bunker tonight and we spent the evening watching the Nicolas Cage movie Knowing. Sharon will have a review posted tomorrow. So we take the opportunity to bring back an archived interview that’s been offline for a couple of years. In December of 2005, we interviewed David Duncan about his belief that Christians were being set up by various groups to take the fall for most of what’s wrong with America, and thus the world. He called his theory the biggest double cross in all of history, “The New World Order Scam”.
MUSCLE relaxants make you sleepy. So while Derek naps, we dig into the archives again for another important interview, this time with former occultist David Duncan. In May of 2006, Dave discussed his view of end times prophecy with the unique perspective of one who knows first-hand what New Agers expect in 2012.
